Hello and welcome to my channel where I share tips, trick, and my thoughts on pottery that I have learned over 30 years of working with clay. My journey with pottery started with classes at my local community college, to selling pottery at my small gallery, and to now being retired from the Postal Service and operating my pottery business.
I make my work in my small studio in my home in Charlotte NC and sell through local festivals and shows. I also have a booth
at the Mule Barn Mercantile in Waxhaw NC and an Etsy shop where I have a wide selection of my pots. I have a fun and active Instagram account where I share my process, new work, Etsy updates, and my show schedule. I appreciate your likes, subscriptions, and comments as it helps to motivate me to add new content.
Thanks so much

My Tip To Making Your Best Functional Pottery #shorts
Просмотров 9678 месяцев назад
Today I am sharing a tip that has helped me create better functional pottery. Before you try to sell pots to customers you hope will use them put them to the test first. Use them yourself and ask your spouse to try them. By doing this you will find any issues in the work before you attempt to sell the item. Selling an item such as a mug is much easier if you have corrected any issues and you k...

Interesting concept to give simple pots a "purpose" so that people know what to do with them. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
your mug shape is perfect.. well done and creative 🎉
Thank you I am pretty proud of my mugs.
I don’t have a kiln yet, but I desperately want one. I’m not able to fire anything until I can get one. I’ll surely be implementing if I’m ever able todo so. This is jotted down in my notes to use when I can. Btw, I’m in NC too, just east of Raleigh.
Great, this tip has been a pot saver for me. I have not had any pots blow up in the bisque since I learned about this. Hope you find a kiln soon and can start firing from home. Thanks for your comment.
I agree with little things. They open the wallets.
For me the smaller items allow me to have a conversation and maybe encourage them to come out to other shows. It is always easier to sell to someone who has purchased before if you are making quality work.
How did you make the tool from the hard plastic that helps you form the foot? Thank you.
I started out using credit cards but the new credit cards are so flimsy that I found a thicker piece of plastic. I just drilled a hole at the end then cut and used a grinder to get a shape that worked for me.
Thank you so much for the video using a filter and box fan. My question is ‘do you have your fan just at a good spot in the studio or in a window?’ Tg 2:02
I just found the answer in the other comments. Tg
I like to run it before I get to the studio to help clear the air before I start working. It might be best to point it out a window but sometimes it is too hot or cold for me to open a window. Either way will help to clean out the small dust particles just use a good filter.
Thanks , great video 🇨🇦
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Very enjoyable video. Great tips!
Thank you for watching and commenting.
Do you glaze inside of the bottle ?
Yes kind of have to. If it was unglazed there might be issues with the pot leaking.
Thank you for the video! Can you tell me how much clay you use for a mug, and the dimensions of the mug, after you get handle on?
I will vary the amount of clay when making mugs so I can get a variety of sizes. The one in the video is 1 lb 2 oz and is about 4” by 4”.
Whoa. Just went to your website. You look so much younger shaved if that’s you. Can a person with experience throwing clay do a one on one class?
I do not have a web site so not sure what you saw. I know of a few potters who do one on one classes. It’s a great way to pass on your knowledge and make a little extra income.
Can you show the tool you used for the skirt again. Thanks
I use a stiff metal rib and I sell them on my Etsy shop. www.mudslingerpotterydac.etsy.com. If you follow me on Instagram I have images of them and videos that I am using them. Thanks for watching
I do like your 3 piece footring, and your double foot, makes an interesting feature on what ever you up it on.😊
Nice little pot, like the coller detail and the texture to make it easier to grab with wet hands , thanks for sharing😊
Thanks for watching!
I like your list of weights to match the item made, I'm just a once a week adult ed student, class starts back end of September so I'm brushing up my 'how to do' watch list of videos, I make one off pieces, because I see something and think how can I do that, every term I plan to make a set of 4, that I'm happy with but it all takes time, I'm too hard on myself, but I love my clay adventure so keep going back. This term, breakfast bowls set of 4, going to go for it , keep everything crossed, I'm glad I found your channel, new Potter to me, thankyou😊
Thank you for your input and for watching. It just takes time and practice. The nice thing about potters is they will share what and how they are doing things so ask questions.
Thankyou for a great 'how to' love the foot, will try your idea to cut a card to make that rounded foot, seen in another of you videos, is that a little lady bug under the handle, just finishes the mug off. Thanks😊
I have used old credit cards but most are not very sturdy which is why I use the thicker plastic. Not a lady bug just a red bead. Thanks for watching.
Great video, David. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and thanks for watching.
I struggle getting the skirt at the bottom centered. I cone up and down just fine but the clay by the wheel head stays uncentered. Any tips?
Take a sponge and hold it at the bottom until it cleans up the extra clay and gets centered before you start to make your pull.
Fancy camera. Facial recognition is such a great idea. I can imagine it takes some of the frustration out of filming. I appreciate your videos. Your explanations and demonstrations are clear and easy to follow. I’m a new subscriber.
Thanks so much. I am trying to answer some of the questions I should have asked when I first started making pottery.
Good to see you back, slinger! Make sure to show us how it looks when it comes out of the kiln.
I will try to remember to do that. Thanks for watching.
Thanks I hope to do some more of these. I have downloaded the Pottery 101 series to my Instagram so you can still see the videos on my Instagram.
I am glad to see a longer video here. I wanted to watch your beginner video series that you did on Instagram but couldn’t catch the live stream.
Thanks for watching. You can still watch my Pottery 101 series as they have been loaded to my Instagram page.
super cool
Thanks
i've tried it with the apple cider beer suggestion. it was really good.
Yes the apple cider beer gives the bread an apple flavor.
nice bowl
Thank you
Sage advice 😊
Thank you and thanks for watching.
I watched this video for moral support while the finishing touches on my first birdfeeder. Mine looks totally different than yours--but this video helped me have a buddy in the process. Thanks
Great thanks for watching. Isn’t that what is so great about clay, everyone is doing something different.
super cool
Thanks
You make it look easyl
Thank you making pots for as long as I have sure helps.
Thanks for your help
Just sharing some things that have helped me. Good to know it is helping someone else. Thanks for watching.
I love a good handle. Still questioning my wall thickness. Thicker pots help keep the coffee warmer
Everything in pottery uses the Goldilocks rule not to thick not to thin not. Not to big not to small. That is why you make different pots so you can have things either customer wants.
This is fantastic!
Thanks and thanks for watching.
Just wait. You have to be ready when it is, at every stage.
Thank you for sharing your story. Time just slips away and I get lost in my own world when I’m wheel throwing
Thank you for watching and commenting. I guess it is the same for any art but I am glad I found clay. I definitely understand the term art therapy because of clay.
Now if only shoe makers used this advice!!
Yes that especially holds true for women’s shoes. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I don't do Instagram, etc. Please stay on RUclips.
Thanks I am planning to do more on RUclips.
Your advice really helped me to start making better mugs. Seems pretty obvious, but I missed that at first. 😂 Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thanks I have been making pots for over 30 years. This is one thing that has helped me figure out any issues or problems with the pot. Much easier to sell pots the work well.
Yes! Use your own pots for best feedback for improvement and refinement 🙌💯 well stated David! 👏👏
Thanks
Hi David, im also David. Have a great day, David.
Hello David. Thanks for watching.
I wanna try pottery, still looking for an opportunity, looks amazing!
Be careful it can be addicting. I started at my local community college and pottery studios seem to but popping up all around here in Charlotte. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the tip, I will give that a try.
Great I found it help me to work out how to make different forms and which shape works best. Thanks for watching.
Pottery is not as easy as it seems but you did that one without fail, congrats🎉
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Very informative and helpful. I've been doing these in more of a bottle shape and was looking for something different and this shape is spot on. Thanks.🙂
Thank you I need to get busy making more for my spring sales.
Thanks. Liked the way you put your handles on.
Thank you and thanks for watching.
I started my RUclips channel.I only have. one video so far.....
We all have to start somewhere. Stick with it.
@@MudslingerPotteryDavidClark thank you for your comment and support.....I have more videos now but still learning....I need to learn how to edit the videos and maybe add music etc......
I totally agree.
Fun fact this footage is actually slowed down and this guys name is god
In order to fit the video into the one minute RUclips shorts limit I do need to do a time lapse video. So yes this process is longer than shown.
Loved your chat on The Potters Cast. I can clearly see in this video how good your metal ribs are!! Looks super smooth and clean after 🙌
thank you for checking out my podcast. Yes the metal ribs have been a game changer for me in my pottery making. That is why I started making and selling them.
Thank you.
thanks for watching.
Amazing ❤ 😊
Thanks 😄
