Pottery Throwing Demonstration

ty for taking time to reply to my question. Do you have a pottery demo on here also? I need to watch them all and hope I learn something!

It could be that you need softer clay, but if issue seems your physical strength, check to see if you're bracing your elbow against your leg. You can put your elbow on the inside of your knee or thigh, and use that to anchor your arm. Your arm doesn't have to stay still on its own strength. You can even push just a little with your leg.

Great job! Beautiful bowl. Thanks, also, for the explanation at the end.

i just started today at school its so hard lol

senior citizen here... I am having a hard time coning the clay, you make it look effortless. Should I have softer clay, or do more wedging?

i wanna throw some clay one day looks awesome and hard!

That looks like good fun, I have used metal and wood lathes for years but never got a Chance to throw clay..

Does the fact that the wheel seems to be wobbling a little bit offset the centering of the finished product?

yea, dude you use whatever water amount fits you....me and you throw pretty similarly...im obviosly not as experienced though

The use of water is a trait that is honed from years of experience and personal choice. It's nothing to criticize since the finished product is what's important.
kb

use to much water :d

Knotty,

Great job man! Ya even showed how to wedge. Keep 'em coming.

wow i wish i was that good
u centered that really quick

I haven't thrown in 7 years. I liked how there was only music during the demonstration.

Thanks for the demonstration and for bringing back the memories!

I believe its a Kilm, the oven that you speak of!!
