Amazing tutorial, I had never made a jar with a gallery lid and today I got it on the first try following your instructions

Excellent videos, John!! I really like your teaching style and love the little tips and tricks you provide in these videos, as well as your detailed description of tool choices. My wife and I just started in ceramics and are finding your lessons very helpful. Thank you!

What an excellent teacher you are! This tutorial filled in some blanks for me after making ginger jars for years! Thanks

Best video on lidded pots!

I watched this yesterday. It is so natural and down-to-earth. I love the way you fiddle with imperfections to make it come out right. Like the way I work. I feel validated.

Really good clay doesn’t come fresh out of the bag. Really good clay has been reclaimed at least once, is soft and smelly and has rested a good while.

Great instruction, great potter! Thanks John.😊

I really enjoy and learn from your videos

Awesome, thank you!

Great video! Really good, clear explanation and I love the multi camera angles. I shared your Tap Centering with my students and almost all of them are doing it now! Big time saver!

I am glad you like the videos. Yes, HUGE time save. when a student miss a demo or can not remember certain part, I have them watch the video I made. Sometimes half the class is on their phones watching the videos I made for class. This is the first time that it has been a good thing that they are on their phones during class.

Love your teaching style and energy!

I am so happy you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching.

This is the first time I watch one of your videos, and you are very engaging, as well as very clearly explaining and showing. I love all the little "whooop!", "clay will squirt up", "happy rim" etc. I also really like your demo pieces, like the cross sections of pot with gallery, different lids etc, to show how they will fit. Thanks so much. I subscribed, and look forward to more of your videos.

You are welcome. I am working on a video about flange lids. It will be coming soon.

quick tip: if you are having problems with the gallery area being messy when you for it, try using a wood clay knife instead of a rib. The sharper edge will get a much cleaner gallery. hope this helps

Great teacher. Those green wheel head bats - why don’t they slide around? What are they?

@JohnHasegawaCeramics

They work with bay pins that fit in the wheel head. Here is a link where you can buy the bats. seattlepotterysupply.com/products/speedball-12-in-batt-round-plastic

Thank you for the video. Very informative and well done. Where did you get the wooden models that show how the lids and the floor and fit together? So often when I’m thinking about lads hard for me to get my head around what I’m looking at. Those would be great to have.

ust curious. What is the approximate weight of the piece of clay that becomes the lid? Thanks.

@JohnHasegawaCeramics

Not much under 2 lbs. I do not weigh that piece of clay. I just eyeball it and hope I have enough.

I think you are great. I’m trying to watch everything you have on KZread. But what I really need to find out and it’s the biggest puzzling thing is how wet is your clay? How malleable is it? Also, if you could please make videos of bloops and blunders. When you’re trying to make a bowl and the upper porch starts falling down because it’s too wet and heavier. How do you resolve that? How can you tell if you have a air bubble in your clay? All the blunders that we make as potters

@JohnHasegawaCeramics

A blunder video would be fun. Overall I record everything live with almost no editing before I post. In general there are no blunders or I do blunder I stop the recording and film a new video. I like your questions and will think about making videos about them.
