Very well done video, especially considering it wasn't your first choice of what to make. I love seeing the masters at work, and it keeps me motivated to keep challenging myself and trying new tricks.

Thanks Dave, keep working on the pottery

I remember watching your video with John's corrugated pottery. Definitely one of my fave methods. I've seen all these actually except Diego. Such beautiful work!

Covid took me out of Order just a few weeks ago, and I was even to weak to crawl into the bathroom let alone make pottery. So I absolutely feel you😅. Take the time you need to rest. A pretty piece of pottery will still be awesome any other day ❤

No problem

Some interesting and simple ways to get a textured outter surface on pottery. The first method shown is great if you already have a pot to form on, and I wonder how you get a sense of the thickness of the walls while working with a paddle. I'm working on getting a good firing process down so I can have more work come out properly fired. I watched a video about firing in a bucket that inspired me to cut up a paint can. The first time I used it I thought it was a failure until I pulled the two objects out the next day. Both were fully fired, terracota red/brown all over and no light spots. I have a little pot I should be firing this weekend using the paintcan. I love how this hobby gives me a sense of improvement/progress. Building, decorating, and firing are all essential and independent skills, you always have something you can improve.

That was so interesting! I hope you don't get sick again. I'd like to have a go at coiling, but I'm not so good at making coils. When I roll the 'snake' it always goes flat or uneven, or develops a twist inside.

Sehr interessant Paddle and anvil (PA) vs coil and scrap (CS). Could this method of rapid paddle and avil construction be how a limited number of Hohokam craftsmen centered at Snaketown were able to make millions of decorated GIla Butte, Santa Cruz, and Early Sacaton Red-on-buff vessels over the course of 250 years? Is rapid and ease of construction the important advantage the PA had over the CS tradition?

@AncientPottery

Could be. But they still had to decorate and fire the pots, not to mention transport them all overt the countryside, so there were other steps that had to take place at regular speed.

@@AncientPottery My focus is on how quickly the basic vessel could be formed because everything else is downstream from that.

Lonpi black pottery if famous in India It can be used up to around 8-15 years

Have you ever explored using wild clay, oak tannins and wood ash to make clay slip for casting? I suspect gypsum/plaster of Paris can also be obtained in nature and processed in a fire to make it castable. If not, likely fired earthenware could be made into molds as well.

@AncientPottery

Plaster of Paris is easy to make from natural materials and holds up well to repeated wetting. I am not sure the wood ash based plaster would be as durable

@CRuggles3

@@AncientPottery I'm saying adding wood ash to the clay to allow it to form a slip. Wood ash and tannins help to alter steric and electrostatic force of particles in the clay allowing for super plasticity.

😄👍

Very informative video. Is there any way to stop pots from bulging out where the puki ends or did it just happen because the clay was too wet?

@AncientPottery

22 күн бұрын

Hmm, it could be your clay is very soft and/or wet. My clay only does that if I push it out too much which is also a possibility.

Would you consider yourself to be a professional, an amateur, or an academic? How did that waterproofing research work out for you in the end?
