I LOVE Bill's chattering tools too!!!

My son bought my some extruders for Christmas. I have made 12 mugs and used the extruders to make my handles. The handles turned out so pretty, and I can make them so fast. I sure can't throw as many mugs as you in a day or even come close.

So very very interesting and helpful information! I could watch this all day!!

Your such a good teacher and so calming . And great content . Thank you

I cheered every time a handle came out as you pulled in the beginning. I have a handle tool, but the metal part is not tipped. I didnt have a lot of success when I tried mine, and put it aside. I though didn't dip it in water first, and I also went faster on pulling it through before I got more experience. You more skillfully pulled the handle trimmer through the clay. I sure appreciate you making this video and will use your techniques. Thank you Vaughan!

Thanks, I muzzled a yippee each time they came out with the tool. I may try rolling a slab next time, the thickness of the tool, as someone suggested, though more wedging that way.

Great video. Interesting how the "feel " of the piece changes with the different handles.

Sure wish artisan pottery tools handles came individually

Ask Bill he seems like a nice guy.

Fantastic to watch!!!!

Very cool tools! Thanks for the time trials 😉. I can see the benefit, for me, of not having to wait for my hand pulled handles to set up a bit before attaching.

I keep buying new handle making tools and they are good, but I always go back to my Kemper handle making tool or pulling my handles.

You’re such an amazing teacher Vaughn!!

Nice tools! Love the way you made them come right out of the block. I agree with your assessment as well; the middle one is the one... Thanks for the great demo. jw

Super věci 😊😊👌👌👋👋👋

Very cool tool! I love it!❤😊

Thank You!

Love all your video's! I am trying to throw pottery and today for the first day everything falls together! Thanks for all your inspiring videos en lessons, when I got stuck it helpt me to get further. I do not know how to send a picture of what I made, but I even made 2 indentical bowls!🎉 Greetings ellen from Holland

Thanks Ellen, glad to hear you are developing your skill level.

As usual, a great video! Hope you are not affected by the flooding in Nova Scotia.

We are fine. Having a house on a hill is a good move.

Diamond Core Tools just had a buy one get one free sale. I got 6 handle tools for the price of 3. Haven’t had a chance to play with them yet.

That is great, well done.

You make these pulled handles look so easy! Maybe it is the tools, maybe it is the skill & patience! I have tried with similar but different handle makers with very messy results. On the weather front - I heard the thunder and wonder h ow you made out in the big rain event yesterday. So much rain in your area, I hope you are alright. We are still sweltering and tinder dry here and would love to have a moderate amount of rain.

The T&L lasted 30 hours, thousands of strikes across the province, so glad we had rain too. The coming week is sunny and hot, go Zucchinis. I wish you a wet summer.

I found rolling a slab to the thickness of the tool opening works for me. I let the tool slide against my wedging table

I will try that next time, I hate wedging the waste clay but now I have a Peter pugger, no problem. Thanks for the tip.

Just a suggestion: If you start with a straight line then wiggle it just a little, then finish with a straight line, it will make an interesting handle that is a bit wonky but nice.

That sounds worth investigating. I can see using a wiggle wire on it too. Thanks
