Hi Ashley! I have watched several videos about plates I am not as skilled as you and have now learned so much I wasnt pacient enough in my work. Thank you for showing every step in this motion ❤ greetings from Vienna, Christine
Thank you so much for this. So helpful! I had been making them more like plates - with a very wide foot which left a beginner’s hump and wasted a huge amount of clay.
wow- what a pleasure to watch you throw! craaaazy skills! and you make it look so effortless! I also liked that there was no narration or music to distract. you can guess what I'll be attempting tonight at the studio!
You are welcome. Unfortunately that one suffered a very bad crack from drying just a bit too quickly. My IG account has more images of completed work, I always forget about my UA-cam channel.
@@ashleycrackpotmorrow After I commented I saw the posting date! I have been away from throwing due to some health issues. Your video really inspired me to get back to the wheel. Thanks again!
i just saw this video from about 8 yrs ago...and am totally amazed! Ashley...you are SO talented and you have inspired me! )(Also I hope it made it thru the firing )
Tia Marie This craft takes patience. I have had 20+ years of experience pushing clay around. You will get better, trust me. It is just about the amount of clay you push through your fingers. Practice as much as you are able and you will see improvement. Even our “failures” are important. In fact, pottery is best learned through failure.
ashleycrackpotmorrow Since starting my throwing class I have improved a TON. I realized that the clay I was using was way too hard for me, since my forearms aren’t accustomed to the type of movements you make when throwing clay. Super soft clay has allowed me to have more wins than losses! Thanks for the encouraging words!:)
hi, stupid question, im a newbie potter and want to ask when youve coned up, why do you bend the top over before compressing the clay back down. Ive not 'played with that much clay at any point yet, so wanted to know do you do it every time or just when handling large amounts of clay. thanks for sharing, love the bowl.
Sorry for not responding sooner! I tend to come and go on this platform. To belatedly answer your question, I always push forward at the too of the cone (appears to look like a bend). This action is what makes the cone/mound become wider and shorter as you push forward. It should not take much force and when it works, you will feel it. Also keep your speed at top speed all the way to the end of the centering process.
Wow, that was amazing! I noticed that you're not afraid to use quite a bit of water/slip while you're throwing. Would you suggest this for someone like me that doesn't throw very fast?
Flipped over in a bat that is large enough to span the diameter, or if that does not work, find a bat that is the same diameter as the bottom and then raise that up so the rim is not in the way of the wheel. I use a xiem batmate to stick the bat to the wheel.
On one hand, I’d like to hear commentary, too. I’m sure she has a lot to offer. However, I think to be able to throw something of this size, you need a basic understanding of all the things she is doing. Therefore, one could mostly tell by watching.

@Phillip Aden yea, been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :)
It's amazing how fast and easily you center and work the clay. I Will improve myself seing you working!!
Thanks for the tip! It is nice to see the way you work, slowly and deliberately.
You have such big hands to make the clay happen, it's look amazing, thanks for sharing 👍

You do such beautiful work, Ashley. I never tire of watching your videos.
You make this look so easy. I’m a beginner and I can barely center my clay lol.

Hi Ashley, thank you so much for the video.
What is the greyish green stuff you holds in hands
?
That is just a sponge to help keep everything wet while II throw.
Holy Hannah! She is one with the clay!
thank you for the demo, you have great control.
Gorgeous! and so encouraging, as I could never center that much clay at once. Thank you so much!
Love the shape!

Thanks for no music overlay. "Native sounds" videos have become rare.
Really gorgeous piece. Can't believe the control you have over that blasted B-Mix. LOL
Beautiful..
amazing
Wow that’s so amazing how u do that.
At my dad's house I put 16 cups of water in the vacuum cleaner
Este video es como las clases del típico profesor que esplica 30 minutos por que 2 + 2 son 4 que tortura
Nice work!
cool , how do you get it off the bat?
WOOOOOOOOW
Wow, that was amazing! I noticed that you're not afraid to use quite a bit of water/slip while you're throwing. Would you suggest this for someone like me that doesn't throw very fast?
I noticed that too! Never see someone use that much water.
On est déjà sur de la bonne taille d’assiette la😅
👐👍😁💕
bonsai!
Impressive! I'd love to have seen how in the world you'd go about trimming the foot, but this comment is 11 years too late 😔

How many lbs. was that total?
Jill Kaplan I’m not entirely sure, it was a while ago. But, my best guess is about 10-12 lbs
Thật tuyệt vời 👍
YAHUAH is the potter and His servants are the clay. He shapens and moldens his servants into His Holy Image. We all give account on Judgment day.
A voice over explaining why you do each thing would be a MILLION times better than that machinery noise in the background.
