Hi, best tutorial so far and I have seen a lot. I am a beginner potter from Pakistan and unfortunately none of the tools you use and clay are available here. I have processed my clay from soil and it is pretty decent. However, I feel the clay you use is more sturdier than mine, I am sure when my technique improves that will help. Can you make a video using home made clay from soil and give some ideas on making the tools from everyday materials that would be a BIG help. Cheers
So happy to see you are continuing to post. I am finally getting time to set up my studio and starting to play. Fun to just go through your lessons and learn along with the high school students.
Hi Jessica- only one way to find out... try it!! :). If you are getting lines you don't like, then try switching to a flexible rib to see if that helps! Wooden ribs are wonderful... I probably rely more on the flexible ones though to be more "forgiving" and produce fewer lines when I use them. :)
Hello- I use two different glazes with this project with my students. Here is a link to the playlist which shows the two glazing techniques I am using. ua-cam.com/play/PLj0pNzEmvM_oCacLjYvR3iWdXbBmLdGva.html
Hi Robert- no, my high school studio is not outfitted with equipment and ventilation for mixing clay from dry ingredients! The clay in this video is standard 103.
@@KaransPotsAndGlass Thank you so much for sharing this as well as your video! I’ve just got back into pottery after a long break and am looking forward to re-watching your very clear and helpful videos and making a pinch pot today. I’d like to try burnishing mine as I’ve never done that before.
You can make your own ribs from old credit cards or hotel room keys! I actually have a bunch that I made from some donated hotel room keys and they work fantastic! I just cut them in the kidney shape so they make a nice rounded edge for shaping the interior!
Teaching a ceramics class for the first time this summer, this video made me feel so much more comfortable

I've just set myself up too so we can learn together - along with the students :)
Love this, thanks for sharing!
Is it okay if I use a wooden rib instead of a rubber rib to smooth out the clay?

Did you make the clay homemade and if so how?

Where can I get the information sheet you are using.
Here you go, Sierra! I just ask that people don't copy it to sell! drive.google.com/file/d/1Ua-wxSSgU0OLA7xBdrzOwyd3kEMQwe5s/view?usp=sharing
