I loved watching your demo. Thanks for sharing. This makes me want to create something.
Wonderful 😊💖
Very good .
Fantastic,now i understand things better.
Very good teaching ,now i was inspired to make a new pot ,will try go from top to bottom ,thanks.
Smart trick.
Richard, I can’t thank you enough for sharing this technique with us! I am trying to make an urn for a friend of mine and emotionally. It’s been very difficult, but also I’m not that great at throwing large forms. I tend to stick with the smaller things. I can easily center three or 4 pounds but when it comes to much over that, then I struggle, hopefully I can get this done. I have six days to finish the piece. Thank you.🤞🙏😉-Liana
@@lianaholtochsner I am glad that I can help. I understand how hard it is, I made the urn my mom rests in.
Hi Richard, thanks so much for you help many paper and me too.
Good job!!!
You doing great classes.
Это реальное ноухау! Спасибо, что поделились!
I feel like you’re a proper teacher doing it for your students, not just for clicks
Thank you this is a wonderful video
Excellent sir. Nicely explained
Well done!!!👍🏻
Do you happen to know why this happens? Is it just that sodium silicate creates a quick drying layer that then can be cracked? I think I have seen people do this technique with plain old slip without any sodium silicate in it and it works as well..
The sodium silicate when dried on the clay creates a thin shell, almost like an egg shell, on the clays surface. When the clay is stretched from the inside the shell just cracks and is so well stuck to the clay it cracks the clay with it. Be careful because it is called water glass for a reason, the small pieces can cut you. The surface is sometimes dried with powdered clay but I find this is easier and works better. A variation is to apply a colored slip, allow it to dry to the touch and then the sodium silicate, dry it and stretch. The way to get the surface to crack without the sodium silicate is to dry the surface only and keep the inside of the wall plastic which can be done with thicker pieces.
@@richardmccollceramics Thank you so much for the clear explanation!
Hi Richard I echo all of the above comments. Really most helpful instructional video. Is that porcelain you are working with? If not what kind of clay? Thank you.
Thank you for your kind comment. I use two Laguna clays. For larger and teaching pieces I use BMix with grog and for my personal work I like to use Babu Porcelain.
@ Thank you 🙏 much appreciated.
How did you get that beautiful blue on the plate at 7:44?
Hi John, The plate is made of a white stoneware so the colors tend to be clearer and deeper. The plate was glazed with a high calcium celadon glaze with 1 1/2% red iron oxide so that when cobalt carbonate wash is brushed on it you get a very nice deep blue. On the clear version of this glaze cobalt is much more vibrant. There is mottling on other places on the plate which is produced by brushing a cobalt and rutile wash. The rutile lightens/bleaches the cobalt and creates tiny crystals which make the lighter blue. The plate was fired at cone 10 (2330 degrees F) in a reduction atmosphere in a gas kiln. This helps to create a beautiful depth to the glazes. I hope this helps you to create beautiful pots. Richard
Hello, l love your lessons, they're so complete and at the same time leaving space to own creativity. And btw - quite nice glasses 😉
Thank you, so glad you like my glasses!
Your videos are really good. I wish you were still making them!
@@skcamerican Thank you for your kind words. I produced these for my classes during the pandemic and have since retired. Between health challenges, family challenges and travel I haven’t been able to make more videos. I have plans to make more when the dust of my life settles. I have upgraded my video skills and am eager to share with you. ❤️
@@richardmccollceramics I’ll eagerly watch them when they become available. I wish you the best!
Great teacher, great knowledge. Thank you!
Thank you, make some great pots!
Just a great video. Thank you
Thankyou, nice quick lesson😊
I teach the way I like to be taught, to the point. Thank you!
Thank you!
He is such a good teacher💕
at 11:43 you say the halves need to be fired together, how come? Do they warp if not?
i have many slab boxes but none like your boxes. im going to try one like your style with a cut circle opening.
Thank you so much! This is the very best plate tutorial!
It comes from years of experience making dinnerware for others and my use. I still use my dishes everyday. The only problem is their incredible durability, they just don't break!
Very helpful video, Thank you!
Thank you!
Great video Richard! I'm about to trim my first set of 4 plates. Thanks for the instruction and all the help over the years at Glendale Community College! , Don La Breche
Thanks Don, glad to be of help!
Thank you! I looked at other tubetutorials but you did it best!
Thanks from Zimbabwe. Love learning all these tricks. I've just bought cmc gum to thicken dipping glaze, so I'm thrilled to come across your post. Regards Sharon
Thank you for watching and learning. Glad to help you on your clay journey!
With so many pottery videos that speed up everything for a soundbite for social media, it is SO refreshing to see a proper instructional video with clear explanations of how to do things. You're an excellent teacher Richard, this beginner thanks you!
@@motumusic-n7w I am so glad to help you and happy to share. Thank you
Very nice good job please translate in Hindi
This is a really informative video on throwing a mug - thank you!! I’m new to this and find these tips to be so helpful. I have learned that the wheel will do the work and my job is to guide the clay - I was trying to force it into the shape I wanted rather than guiding it. Thanks again for the great tips!
Wow, this is beautiful! Thank you for sharing. Do you know if it’s possible to make a more elaborate wheel-thrown puzzle? Do you know if it is possible to create a slab built jigsaw puzzle with an image on it?
Clean up the pan. You can’t even see what you are doing. Next video please that I can se
Wonderful!
Can you use sodium bentonite for this?
You are the Bob Ross of ceramics. I got to find out why folks mix alumina with wax resist AND be relaxed by your calm voice! Very helpful, thank you!
I love your instructions. Very clear and paced well. I hadn't seen anyone compress the way you did. Other helpful tips were sealing the clay before centering and beveling the bottom of the mug.
@@CrystalAlifanow Thank you for your kind words. I hope my experience gives you a shortcut to success.
I really enjoyed watching this. I teach beginner pottery and use most of the same techniques and wording. You gave me some tweaks to offer my students that could really help. Thank you!
Thank you, so glad you are teaching it well!
Love your tutorials, thank you from Australia
Hi! Thank you for sharing this was so useful. I have made a bowl from a slip with sodium silicate and now i wonder if i should clean it off the bottom like i would with glaze? Like should i avoid sodium silicate on my kiln shelves?:)
Yes. That is a good idea because sodium and silica makes a glaze...
The Water regist is process the same as Hydro process.
Yes, different name, same process.
Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge. I have found this very helpful
Thank you for watching, I am very happy to share.
I love how organised you are .. esp with the trims ... its super satisfactory .. i hope i can reach this stage someday
Thank you for your kind comments. Keep working and you will, someday. Take care, Richard
random question: I presume you're right handed, how come you have your water bowl on the left hand side?
Very good instructional video .
