- This video is just an excerpt from my teapot construction video... click on this link to see that full video on throwing a teapot and all its parts!
• How to throw and trim ...
and it shows how I throw two types of lids for the same pot. The first type is thrown upside down on the potter's wheel, almost like a little bowl, and splitting the rim to form the flange and the lip- and the lid sits in a gallery on the pot. That lid is trimmed when leatherhard, and clay is attached for a knob, and thrown to shape it. The second lid is thrown right-side up, and has a knob formed at the time of throwing.

I am a full-time high school ceramics teacher who also does pottery on the side on nights and weekends. I started making videos for my own students, and it has grown into a much bigger audience than I could have ever imagined!

I found your demonstration very helpful. Thank you for sharing
I love your videos... I have been watching for several years now. Thank you so much for this great demonstration...one that finally clicked with me.
Tari Huffaker awesome, Tari!! Thanks so much!!! Enjoy! 😊
Really well done! Thank you!!
This was so helpful! My goal this semester is to make a teapot on the wheel with matching mugs. Definitely going to try to make lids like these.
thank you! this helped a lot!
Very very helpful!
I'm glad, Marlea! Here is another lid video with a different style of lid: ruclips.net/video/qhgSsnvJdT4/видео.html
Very helpful! May I know which glaze you used on the left textured one?
Coyote Shino!
@@KaransPotsAndGlass thank you so much
Hi, how do you get that awesome texture on the Teapot on the left?
Hi Mack- sorry for the delay in getting back to you! There are a couple of ways to achieve that texture easily. Here is a link to a video where I do that... if you pull forward to the 7 minute mark, you can see me use the Kemper ribbon trim tool to create it. ruclips.net/video/vLUyr23-TIY/видео.html . The second way is a great little mud tools texturing tool, shown in this video! ruclips.net/video/PTpAC43DOQM/видео.html . pull to the 2:30 minute mark to see that one.
Here are Amazon links to both tools: Sherrill Mudtools Drag Tool texturing tool:

and
Kemper KSP 4- 7” Double ended ribbon tool (I use for trimming and texturing)

Hi again Karan! Thanks so much for replying ! I honestly wasn’t sure if you would since this is a two year old video but hey, you did so thanks! Now that I have you I was wondering what company you’d recommend for stains. I’ve seen on the big ceramic stores website they’re selling mason stains but can I use them with Porcelain? Also I don’t suppose you might know where I can find cheaper wheels? I know you recommend the Brent (which I myself cut my teeth on in high school and remain quite fond of) but Idon’t have 1600 dollars.
@@MegaMackproductions I honestly haven't used the mason stains past cone 6- but I think many would work w/porcelain(?) (I assume cone 10, but realize you may be using 5/6). I recommend calling and asking that as a technical question from any reputable supplier- they should be able to confirm which ones can go that high. (I know some stains I don't use on cone 6 as they burn out... like the pinks and reds) . I highly recommend searching for used wheels near you. Wheels can be a great score when used... people give up pottery and want to downsize their studio! Check Cragislist or your local for sale bulletin boards! As far as a recommended supplier, I buy nearly everything I need from Cornell Studio Supply out of Dayton- Erin, the owner is outstanding and knowledgable, and they can ship just about anywhere. cornellstudiosupply.com . If you call them, let 'em know I recommended them... they are just super people there! (937) 454-0357
Thanks very much Karan! You’ve been really helpful! I really appreciate all this info from a professional!
What are the little tongue tip shaped pat(s) on inside of tea pot lids called?
Like the tabs on a locking lid perhaps?
