This is a GREAT video. Very well done, with important details. Great that you do this in real time, and with no annoying music in the background. Simply excellent and I will check out the link you offered in the comments to see the finished piece! I'm inspired!! Thank you!!!
Very interesting, thank you! Did the cylinder you put inside for stability have any hole in it? I was always taught to leave a small hole in a closed form for the firing, otherwise the piece will explode in the kiln. I saw in your follow up video that the vase fired perfectly.
Good you asked as I was thinking the same when I was making one last week. No, holes in the inner cylinder in the previous pieces but I did put one in the piece I made last week. Needing an air hole in closed pieces seem to divide makers who religiously make holes and who say it is not required. If a hole doesn't affect the form, I guess no harm in putting one in to be on the safe side? :)
@@leesaewon Thank you! Yes, better to be on the safe side! I'm starting to think, that whether a closed form blows up in the kiln or not, has more to do with the dryness stage of greenware and possibly with the increase in temperature (ramp in an electric kiln) during the firing. Steam or gas that develop in the closed form during the firing and can't escape quick enough maybe the cause of the explosion? Same way I have been told twice recently by experienced potters to not worry too much about the odd bubble in greenware. They said it's far more important to make sure the piece is bone dry. A closed form is "just" a big bubble after all 😄
@@stefanieb.7557 I agree about pieces being bone dry before firing and how quickly or slow the initial firing is can have an impact on the piece. I heard from an artist who only works with porcelain that the initial few hundred degrees (shame I cannot remember now but it was before 600c) is fired really really slowly than after that it doesn’t matter how quickly it is fired. If you think about a candling programme, it is super slow start then an hour or two hours hold and a relatively slow firing until about 600c (at least my programme). Your point on steam/air escaping during firing happens at this first stage of the firing which is why all the vents are open. I guess the explosion is a result of the air being trapped and has no where to go so it opens up!! Interesting point by the experienced potters about the odd bubbles. The bubbles from blotting may be a different matter, I had bubbles appearing on my porcelain work which I cannot work out why… don’t think they were all air bubbles or due to over firing! I will have to make more and find out:)
@@leesaewon Thank you for the detailed reply! By the way I use the same stoneware terracotta crank and had bloating happen when fired too high. Now, when I fire this body to 1240*C I put the pieces in the cooler parts (lower shelves) of the kiln and they come out fine. I don't have any experience with bloating porcelain, but on digitalfire is an article called 'Body Bloating'. There is a section on porcelain, which might be interesting to you. Good luck! ✨✨✨
@@stefanieb.7557 It was very interesting! Thank you for your time. Same experience for me when i use terracotta crank. Thank you for the tip, I will check it out! Happy making!
Fantastic, thanks for a lovely video

very interesting. One thing cylinder you added inside, it now stops anyone from putting dried flowers in the vase?
There is space, so it’s still possible to put flowers even with water
What is the clay tho? Or am i jus suppose to know? If u know u know
Haha. It's called Craft Crank bought from Pot Clays (a UK based supplier)
이런책들이 필요한데
전통도자서적류 소개좀 부탁드립니다 제발😅
한국에 계시면 한국에서 서적들을 찾아보세요. 저는 한국에 없어서 번역본만 있습니다. 이왕이면 원본을 읽으면 더 좋지요.
Will the cylinder inside not blow as you didnt put an air hole in it?
Hello, Please see my replies below on this very question.
J'aurais bien aimé pouvoir regarder, malheureusement, il n'y a pas de traduction en français, et j'en suis vraiment désolée
No image of the fired work? Ah, so disappointing after watch the process.
You can see the result in the below video! Thanks for watching.
