  • @al-vj4cg

    Such great tips as always. Interesting compressing theory. I learned for a time in Thailand and my instructor put an emphasis on compressing the bottom. He was Thai and trained in Chiang Mai. So not sure if it's a Western thing but who knows, I know their medical schools often use Western books so maybe some got thrown into the pottery as well. Not that they wouldn't have had their own massive clay knowledge and history to call upon but interesting.

  • @beabejo14

    Maybe You have a tip how to fix crackle, and how it could be avoided? Thinner glaze coat? Cup and bowl that I made have crackled inside, but I want to use them for food:(

  • @alexandracompton3786
    @alexandracompton3786 Год назад

    Hi Mia - I buy bisqueware and decorate with glaze and my vases keep cracking around the base evening if I leave the kiln and open at 50 degrees. Do you know of a solution with the glazing or kiln settings? Thank you!! Sasha

  • @paintandpotterybymangala
    @paintandpotterybymangala 2 года назад

    I do agree with you that compressing is not so important .The base needs to be clean, smooth and even like you say .I have never got cracks at the bottom.Maybe the s crack because I might have left some slip when I went for the closed form .

    Hey☺️ Love your content! What if there are only small holes in the glaze and a pling sound?

    • @PotterytothePeople
      @PotterytothePeople  3 года назад

      Holes in the glazes are called pinholes (or maybe crawling?) that is a firing problem, not really a crack. Pinging usually comes from crazing.

  • @gracecassidy437
    @gracecassidy437 2 года назад +1

    This is such an informative video!!! So appreciative :)
    What about pinholes? Why do those happen and is the piece no longer food safe? Thank you!

    • @PotterytothePeople
      @PotterytothePeople  2 года назад

      Technically yes, but there are different thoughts on this among potters. If the clay is vitrified, I generally think they are ok. Pinholes can appear from a bunch of different problems. I will make a video about it!

    I often a like 1 crack in my glaze usually at the base of a wall, just 1 lil 1-3” crack in the glaze, looks like it was pulling apart. a spoon rest had a piece of underglaze bubble up and chipped off a little rectangular chunk of glaze n the underglaze with it, but when I try to research it just shows crazing!.

  • @Californiamari
    @Californiamari 8 месяцев назад

    So if, for example, I only glaze the edges of my sculpture, would that potentially cause stress? Should I be glazing all of the sculpture in one way or another? Thanks

  • @reneeweisschase
    @reneeweisschase 2 года назад

    Thanks so much for this informative video! I am a hand builder and make hollow forms with added bottoms. I am not able to turn my pieces over for even drying and this results in cracks some of the time. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    • @PotterytothePeople
      @PotterytothePeople  2 года назад +1

      Do you mean the piece is round at the top or something? You can make a sort of support with a bucket and a towel (or something else) and to rest them upside down if theyre round on the top. This is what I do because I really believe they need to be flipped, so I will do it however I can.

  • @DerNeueGranatapfel

  • @ericshaw3165
    @ericshaw3165 Год назад

    😮 I just heard you say never open your kiln before 100 Celsius? I think you meant 100 Fahrenheit. I don't ever open before it is within 20 F of ambient temperature. This seems like a good rule of thumb. But if you are opening at 100C and don't have any problems, then okay, I can not speak to that as I have never opened my kiln at that high temperature.

  • @robot7759
    @robot7759 11 месяцев назад

    How about some kinstugi? Gold-powder and some kind of resin type of glue will fill the cracks and only highlight their individual beauty.

  • @kevinjamiesonbelou
