I am a hand builder and have made many mugs. It never would have occurred to me to do it this way! THANK YOU for giving my brain a major nudge! I'll be trying this out first thing tomorrow.
I do a similar process but if you will shape a wooden spoon to the profile you desire and use it to push out the belly instead of the rib you will have better results and less difficult. ;-)
I really like that you don't speed up the videos - I tend to work really quickly, because so many times I see speed videos and loose the feeling for how long pulling a handle really takes... Thanks for that.
I feel like some of my videos are a bit long. But I figure people can speed up where they want to and if they want to watch the entire process then they can. 🙂
Helo. Very nice work 👍. I am a girl from Iraq 🇮🇶 Baghdad 🌹. And I'm in the channel. I love working at Clay. I'll cut you. I dug and dug in the garden of the house about Clay 😂😂. And pure it from impurities and sand. I left him for 15 or more. and his kneading with a soft dust. And i made shapes and dried and became strong. To be when forming the stereoscopic clay is not obeyed? Can I add something else while clay kneaded? Like ashes or something. Please reply
That is very cool!! I have never made my own clay so I don't know for sure what would work. I know the clays I have used have sometimes had sand in them and some have grog which I believe is fired ground clay. Sorry I can't be more help
I learned more in half a video than i did in a 10 week class at my local museum. Thanks for all the details about your construction.

Little behind responding to comments! Sorry about that. Hope you gave it a try and enjoyed it. 😊
Combining slab and wheel: brilliant! Thank you for the idea
I can't take credit. I got the idea from a friend. so just passing it on. 😁

Cool idea. I will have to look in my kitchen. 😆

You are awesome! Great descriptions. Thank you!
Thank you!
Glad you are back!!!! ; )
Thanks! I really should record more but sometimes I just get caught up in the making. 😂
Hi! You gave lots of advice I hadn't seen in other textured slab videos. Never knew about the handle proportion... Thanks!
Glad you find all the details helpful! I learned about the handle proportion from another potter... but I can't remember who it was. 🤷♀️
took the time to watch this video
well worth it. thank you
Glad you found it useful!
Hi from the UK! Your videos are so helpful and interesting...thank you, I have to try all these things!
Hi! Glad you find the videos helpful! It makes it worthwhile doing them when I hear that. 🙂

Give it a try and make it in your style! 🙂

Why is everything a 1/4? is it done to annoy. If so stay off my site.👎
