You are very special gift to the community. Thank you.

I made one of these yesterday and finished the foot etc today. It's my new favorite pot, I just have to decide how to glaze it. Thanks so much for your easy to follow instructions. I watch as many as I can and have learned so much!

Thanks from Japan, Bill-sensei!

Bill, you are a constant inspiration and wealth of concise humble knowledge. Many thanks

You are Awesome !!!! Thanks for ALL the great tips !!!

You’re the best. Thank you for sharing your energy ☀️

Amazing artist and thanks for sharing your techniques

great idea for fixing the lid to the wheel head

Bill you're a pleasure to watch and learn from thankyou

Another great one Bill. Thanks. Like the pad of clay for trimming too.

Thanks, Bill. Excellent, instructive video. Love how you talk through the process.

Very nice video with explanations. Thanks Bill. P.S: That wheel needs some attention: hehe

I just LOVE your videos, clear, concise instructions kept simple for learning at any level, thanks so much.

Excellent instruction, and thanks especially for telling us what clay you're using. That's pretty important.

Great video. I loved how you explained how to do the gallery on the lid and where the fingers go. I will try that tomorrow because I always have trouble with this and I have wrecked many lids because my gallery was too thin or too soft or just not right. The way you showed it seems to give a lot more control over the clay so I will learn this now finally. Thanks to your video thank you so much for sharing!

How did I miss this one? Great as always!. Thanks again Bill.

Thank you for all your tips and tricks. I love all your videos 💜

Nicely done. I've never thought of doing that little clay pad for trimming. Totally going to try that on some trophy plaques I'm doing. Thanks a bunch!

Wow that was amazing, I have to say though that I held my breath through most of it. Excellent tutorial, thank you x x

Great vid Bill. Thanks for explaining each step. Greetings from lockdown in the UK.

AMAZING I enjoy all your videos! just taking a ceramic class and have a new addition!!

Thank you....so helpful.

Great videos, thanks

thanks for sharing this video! very imformative

I love this video and can't wait to try this. I love your videos and thank you so much for sharing.

Thanks so much for sharing your tips! i'm always clueless when it comes to lids and your video was very helpful.

Some very useful ideas. Thanks, Bill.

One of my favorite YT pottery videos. You show us many techniques in this one pot, many of which I'm using because of you? Thanks!

GREAT video! You are an excellent teacher!! See you in Pensacola; looking forward to it.

Thanks for sharing this was very helpful to me.

Enlightening!

Wow, nice video. You teach well.

Love your videos! :)

love your tutorials. easy to follow. Good teaching.Angella Brown

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!! I have been avoiding trimming because of those little scratches made from catching bits of grog. I never thought to use the broad side to burnish!! I'm also really thankful for the "keyhole" idea --- my lids are also grateful. :D Can't wait to try these ideas out! You should do a quick video just on centering and common mistakes new potters make...I still have some problems with anything over a pound. :/

Wow!! Like all craftmanship, it looks so easy done by the expert but I know it is not!! Looking forward to try and make a pot with a lid soon! Thnx from The Netherlands!

fantastic work, i learn so much from your videos... please upload more videos. also your hand made easy tools are so good, where i come from, we dont get fancy tools which i see most of the potters use in USA.. thank you

Great videos vg

hi, I am a big fan of your work and the way you explain is so simple. I wish you would make more videos, 22 videos are not enough. :-) hope you don't disappoint me.

Thomas... 'Pin hole' is the term used to describe a small crater, sometimes sharp-edged, or a pit-like very small hole that can appear in a glaze-fired surface. They can happen for a bunch of reasons... veg-type matter burning out of the clay, slightly under firing the glaze, no soak of heat as the glaze matures at the end of the firing cycle, coarse clay trimmed & not smoothed, etc. However, in some glazes - shino glazes in particular - a type of controlled pin holing is often sought after. 'Crawling' is in the same shino-effects family.

genius

Great demo. I find it useful when we get to see the start to finish of a potter's process. Would you show us the pot in this video after you glaze it? Thanks from an admirer.

👍👍👍👍

cool

Bill, thanks for sharing another great video of your techniques.I especially loved your comment at the end. When preparing clay for throwing (new or reclaimed), do you ever use a pugmill? Can you please discuss why or why not?

Awesome Bill! I hope you do a workshop at Sierra Nevada College in Tahoe soon :)

whats is pin holing anyone?

+Thomas Horner pinholes are small holes in the glaze, they usually look like they were made with a needle. :-)

Thomas Horner maybe if you're using shitty clay and not adjusting your glazes

I found that 06 bisque fire is too low and can cause pin holes. Cone 04 seems to reduce pin holes greatly for cone 6 stoneware..

Woodglut is nice for that.

The machine noise makes this irritating to hear
