🔥 In this video, my main aim was to clarify to beginners what slip is, as I often get asked about it. I just wanted to demonstrate that it's not some "special glue" but simply clay. It's not always necessary to grind clay into powder to make slip. You can simply soak pieces of dry clay in water and then blend them. ⚠ Also, I forgot to mention an important safety tip: silica can be very harmful to your lungs, so it's essential to wear a mask for protection.

roll it, dry it, smash it, wet it ...got it, thx! ;)

I just use old pieces that have broken in a plastic bag and bang, so no dust and add to hot water and mix

Thank you very much, this kind of support helps me a lot to continue to develop the channel. I got back to the videos seriously for a few months, the quality is improving little by little. I hope it will continue like this.

I’d love to know what all the intricate holes on the bottom of the piece are for.

oh it's just that my main activity is to make pots for bonsai, it's specific to bonsai. These holes are drainage holes, or to pass holding wire to tie the tree.

salut Greg je voulais te demander si tu travaillais seul ? et es ce que tu fais des ateliers poterie avec des particuliers ? , Merci . ps: sur ton site je ne vois essentiellement des pots émaillé , fais tu des pots non émaillé ?

Oui je travaille seul. Je ne fait pas d'atelier ou de stage parce que mon atelier est très petit (mon ancien garage transformé), et puis parce que je n'ai pas vraiment le temps non plus 😅. j'ai quelques pots non-émaillés sur mon site, mais c'est vrai que j'en fait moins, c'est juste par choix, j'aime moins faire des pots non-émaillés, et je n'ai jamais trouvé de terre colorée qui me satisfasse. D'ailleurs c'est drôle car cette semaine je n'ai fait que des pots non-émaillés (il ne seront prêt qu'au printemps)

Why does the clay need to be dried, crushed, and then re hydrated? Why couldn't water just be added to wet clay and mix well until you reach the same consistency?

you can, it's explain in subtitles and description

This was a great video but that dust gave me extreme anxiety

You don't have to grind the clay into powder, I explain more in the subtitles. The aim is above all to explain what the slip is, that it is not “special glue”.

😂😂😂

You make a lot dust, very dangerous. You don’t need to make dust to make slip That dust contains silica
