Making and Firing Primitive Pottery
Ойын-сауық
In this video Jeff Martin shows you how to craft a Prehistoric wingfield plain ware style jar. Once the jar is fully dry we then fire it in oxidation turning raw clay into a fire hardened ceramic. If you enjoy wilderness living and primitive survival, this video is a must watch!

I've done a primitive pottery course in the UK a while ago and it was good to use this video as a refresh, thanks.
It would be useful to know how long they dried out prior to firing. Nice video.
Thanks man, and my condolences for your loss. I've been thinking of trying to make some clay containers for candles, but wasn't sure how hard it'd be. I think I can do it now.
Howdy Jeff , great video of how to make a good size plainware jar & how to fire it properly ! 👍🏼
Learned and enjoyed. Thank you!
Very cool, thanks for sharing
Wow!!! Nice job. Good video. Like the thin walls. I'm just starting. Wanted to make this vessel. I get nervous 😰but with practice and this video. I'm GONNA do it. New subscriber. Keep the videos coming. 😃
absolutely awesome!! thanks for the great video
Thanks for a great video
WOW that ring!!! Its fired HARD! I wonder what was the temperature!.
Pretty cool.
hugs to you about your dad -- excellent video - we don't have any clay deposits here in NH. What kind of commercial clay would be good for primitive firing?
What kind of clay did you use and did you add temper to it? (and how much?)
Wonderfull.
Cool music!
masterful
Did they make a lid/bung for the jug?
Sorry to here about your father. Great video.
Good
Makes me want to find some clay.
What kind of oil would be referring to when you asked did you oil the clay pot?

Shipping is pricy but new mexico clay is a store with a website, they sell a clay mined near Albuquerque called mica clay that sinters as low as 1200 f and gives nice fire clouds like the one in this video. Very nice clay to work with

@@sandgrains3418 hard question to answer . But over all, sand is good to add. Brings silica to the mix but every clay fires a little different. Best to test your source . Hope that helps

I'd guess you're not concerned about calcium carbonate in your clay. With that amount and size of wood, you could expect 1600F at peak, no?
Vegetal material

Thx for sharing, fine video. We would enjoy it also if you skipped music (beautiful) and let hear the sounds of processing. Silence and natural soundscape is beautiful while making pottery, isn't it? Just a thought. Thank you again for sharing your skills. 💚
