I'm new to pottery and I've been watching a lot of videos. You are ABSOLUTELY my favorite. Starting with your brand name... you are reliable and real. Thank you for sharing!!!!!!
Thank goodness for slow motion for those corners, folding is a struggle for me 😅. I’m not a potter but I am planning to start sculpting & I can see this being very helpful
Hello.... I am from Bangladesh 🇧🇩. Me and my family makes a lots of murti(Statue) by soil. We also make some plate glass and this types of things by soil. It's our cultural family business. U also make this types of things. I really love it.
I have a video to make a plaster form here: ua-cam.com/video/U2gkKPTaizM/v-deo.html Making the plaster bat is the same idea, but of course on a bigger scale!
Hi! I have a question :) I'm new into pottery, so I'm still learnign all the basics. I've seen many people use a simple wooden board and the clay does not stick to it. Is there any specific reason why you add a piece of cloth to it? Thanks for all these videos, they're REALLY useful! :)
If you're laying out clay to led it dry out before recycling, does this method work? Or should I attempt to create an enclosed board with concrete? Let me know when you can!
I've been attempting to wedge on plasterboard because I had some lying around, and it's not working at all - the clay just sticks to it. Can I just staple some fabric to that or does it have to be wood? :)
Hi Georgina, it should work! Lots of people wedge on plaster, but it needs to be Gypsum plaster, that is absorbent. If the material isn't absorbent at all, you'll get sticking. Also make sure your clay isn't too wet-- if it's too wet it will stick to everything!

So good! I would love to dig my own clay someday
@@PotterytothePeople I want to contact with you. If you have any social media then you please give me. Thank you. Namaskar.
This was very helpful thank you! Im getting my own little studio at my home up and I'm now realizing I have no wedging board!
Thanks so much! looks easy, I hope to make one today.
do you have a video on how to wedge clay?
This was super helpful I used it to build my own! Thank you
Great to hear!
Super helpful! Thank you! Would love if you could do a video on your professional studio!
Can I ask what the cloth does ? Does it help for the clay not to stick?
sorry if i missed it but, what type of fabric do you use and where do you get it ?
Great video! Love all the info you share. Could you do a video on your plaster boards as well?
I have a video to make a plaster form here: ua-cam.com/video/U2gkKPTaizM/v-deo.html Making the plaster bat is the same idea, but of course on a bigger scale!
What size did you make the wedging board? I could not find the dimensions of your board. Thank you for theses helpful instructions!
Hi! I have a question :)
I'm new into pottery, so I'm still learnign all the basics.
I've seen many people use a simple wooden board and the clay does not stick to it. Is there any specific reason why you add a piece of cloth to it?
Thanks for all these videos, they're REALLY useful! :)
I’m no expert but I think it’s to absorb more moisture
Nope, I just prefer to do it this way.
@@PotterytothePeople ok
I have had problems with the wood warping due to the moisture in the clay getting into the wood (particularly during cleaning)!!
Can you just use the board? Why the need for cloth on top? Sorry if that’s a silly question!!
How often do you clean them? After every time you are finished using them?
If you're laying out clay to led it dry out before recycling, does this method work? Or should I attempt to create an enclosed board with concrete? Let me know when you can!
I have a video on this that should answer your questions :) ua-cam.com/video/0Z3VtyL0F6E/v-deo.html
Do you have to clamp the board down when working on it ?
nope :)
What kind of wood again?What size wood?
any wood. make sure it's at least 1cm thick, ideally 2-3cm. My boards are 60x40cm, but any size will do.
Can cement board be used?

what alternatives can i use to keep the cloth sturdy if i don't have a staple gun available? :)
nails? screws?
Can you use cotton?;)
Is canvas cotton good for the wood cover or i need something smoother?
cotton canvas is what i use! it works fine :)
I pre wet so it drys tighter
Hi! Would you mind explaining this a bit more? Do you spray down your canvas/fabric before stapling it to the board?
@@marooorooo yes but I think it backfired. I think stretching it dry then wetting will tighten better but idk
