You could make it taller, but everyone is saying that. However, if it so happens that it ever breaks - don't throw the cracked parts away! You can later mill them into dust and add to the clay mixture, making it much tougher in structure and easier to cook.
Another thing is that if you want to really cook your pots - it needs to be in a low oxygen athmosphere. Traditionally, you'd produce a lot of burning charcoal embers under and over the clay pots, then cover them with leaves, and with a layer of dirt on top. If you do it right they should burn hot and the risk of breaking will be minimised. Then the last thing you can do is build a furnace for cooking clay (funny enough - the furnace should also be made of clay), and if you manage to get the pots to be visually red hot you can be 100% certain that they won't turn back into clay when exposed to water, even for great lengths of time.
Thanks for the tips,, I always wanted to know how to tell if it was getting hot enough.
Tip: If you go out in the woods after a day of rainfall looking for clay, chances are the most abundant deposits are in spots where water is stagnant and won't soak into the soil. Another way to tell is by finding bare patches of soil in places well bathed in sunlight. Clay can make it difficult for some plants to grow even when it has a good amount of light
Great tips, thanks!
I live this tip and needed it a lot, not a ton of people know how to look for clay
Hey man that's a really good first attempt, not everyone manages to successfully fire a clay object using native materials on their first try.
My best advice is to wedge your clay before you use it to make things next time. Clay particles are shaped like very small flat plates, when they settle together in nature they are all jumbled up. If you try to fire clay that has all the particles jumbled like this it can increase the chance of cracks or make your products fragile. When you wedge clay, what you're doing is forcing the clay particles to line up flat against one another, which makes the clay structure tie together and become much stronger. Wedging also makes clay easier to work with, as it wants to hold its shape a little more instead of sagging.
To wedge clay you will need to take lumps of clay about the size of a fist and throw them again and again against a flat surface like a rock. As long as the clay is forced to deform and stretch again and again it will become wedged. It's like how blacksmiths would fold steel on itself over and over again, except instead of folding you should just squish the clay back into a ball again as you continue to wedge, to prevent bubbles from being formed.
When I first tried to use native clay I didn't know about wedging, and the clay I was using had sand in it, so trying to make it keep a shape was really hard. Since then I found better very clean clay, and learned about wedging, and now my pots are turning out much much better looking. I also found that by first lighting a small fire with the pot buried inside it, then continuing to add sticks until the entire pot is buried in a large amount of embers, then adding piles of dry grass, the pot will be heated up slowly enough to not crack it, all the way up to firing temperature, then the layer of ashes from the burned grass slows down how fast the charcoals can burn, keeping the temperature high for a long time without needing a huge amount of fuel, and without building a kiln. That kind of firing works best in a shallow hole in the ground, just to stop ashes from blowing away too quickly and keeping wind off of the pot if it gets exposed.
Good luck on your next clay projects!
Thx ! Lot of great info
You should do a video Rothpol x
Your quality standards are way too high, it looks wonderful. I'm subscribing the hell out of your channel, man. Great videos.
👍 awesome! We live where the ground is full of clay. I can't grow crops here in my land because of it. BUT, I can make pottery!! I found my new retirement hobby! Thank you! 🙂
You're a king in my book. I love the way you dig into the minutia of everything.
Good stuff mate, you've got yourself a 100% primitive clay vessel
Nice, cool and good Cedrik! Great job.
I love doing this type of stuff but I am in scotland so about 200 days of the year is below 10c lol and the rest are quite bad too but the few sunny days wee get in the summer are spent in the forest, it makes me appreciate it more i think
Perfect demonstration. That was as basic as it can get. Very well done!
This is the best channel on YT. The heartbeat at the start of your last one should be on ALL your videos. This one is a bit of a WOW. In all of them there is an element of making something from nothing. I thought you might finish this one with your dog drinking his fill from the bowl. Encore merci Cedrik, tes efforts nous enrichissent tous. Paul
At 4:43, awesome tattoo. "I adapt to Mother Nature and she will provide!" Great tattoo picture beneath that saying as well!
Those bushcraft videos are very important to learn and please do some more videos and it good education
Survival Wife says: Score and slip each coil as you place them on each other. Scoring is scratching the surface to build a grip on the clay. Fill the scratches with slip, very wet clay, to work as a glue for the next coil. Surfaces can be smoothed out as you build. Use thinner coils for faster drying. Thinner coils may be difficult to score ans slip, so work slowly and carefully with water amounts.
+alpha numeric Likely account for shrinkage also? If it's to carry water, you'd likely want it larger.
This only applies if you plan to either heat up the clay pot, cook with it, or put it in a kiln (basically exposing it to extreme heat), since not scoring and using slip can cause air bubbles. If your making a clay pot to store stuff in, you don't need to score and slip.
Squid Army
Can you proof read that, a little confused! Hehe. But if you want to fire the pottery in a coal bed, are you saying you should not score and slip the coils?
ahahah your wife is the shit dude :D
m8 you need to make the walls of the pot thinner and instead of rolling big tubs of clay roll smaller ones and use water to seal the cracks and blemishes instead of more clay, make the walls taller, only a bit if you want just so that you can store more, and with thinner walls you would be able to make more 🐢
sure didn't take much to convince me to subscribe. Lilly referred your channel to me and I'm quite satisfied. thanks Lilly .
thx lilly
great video, thanks for this. one tip on pottery is to allow it to air dry for a while before going into the fire. this allows the moisture inside to evaporate. the way you do it here can seal the moisture inside and it may crack when heated and that moisture tries to expand.
Blisters are a sign of a determined soul... Healing is the reward! Nice job!!!!
Your persistence paid off! 😎👍
Pinch pot and coil pots are the best in the bush...great job Cedrik !!
Excellent I love it
LOVE THE TATTOO! Thanks for posting this video.
Excellent work! I love how you lifted the board and the oxygen brought it to life. Amazing! Blessings from Arizona!
J'apprend de vous avec vos essais/erreur. Merci! J'ai hâte à cet été!
Enjoying the videos, Cedrik! Clay can be tricky at times and it looks like your container survived the firing just fine! Lots of fun!....Ben
Wow, congratulations. Fantastic bowl. First time I saw somebody successful doing this in the woods with found clay. TU
Pas mal bon Cédrick! Fais attention de ne pas emprisonner des bulles d'air quand tu montes tes colombins et tes plaques. Résultat impressionnant!
when building clay coil pots if you use a stick to score between layers it isn't necessary to use the thin sheets of clay to bind the coils together. smooth river stones work well to smooth the surfaces both inside and out. its also very helpful to use broad leaves under the base of your pottery to prevent stinking to the stone and allow the project to be turned. all in all great video young man kudos.
nice vid, going to have to find a spot with natural deposits of clay and try this. Always a joy to watch. I always, ALWAYS learn something new. Keep em coming man. ATB -Nate
Glad to see you back! Great vid!
Well done! Very cool video again, I always learn a lot. Thanks
Hey man. You have a deep understanding of this. I have learned a lot. Thankyou.
It's my elementary school art class all over again!
very nicely done Cedrik.
great effort with that handdrill! it´s killing me everytime... love the fact you use only stonetools...shows amazingly how it was done back then! ....
...nice clay you got there and for sure nice pott!...amazing, most of the thickpotts tend to crack! amazing..
unbelievably i just found you today...and not earlier!!
usually you would use a piece of bark that has the fire starting material on top, and then you put the board your making the ember on top of that so that you have no transition phase for the ember to have any chances of going out.
this is one of the most helful channels in my opinion. keep working man :)
Helful? Don't you mean helpful.
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing!
Love your videos! You should do more survival videos like when you pass the night with minimal materials. Continue like that!
and you thought you had nothing more you could show us... keep up the great videos
Welcome back Cedrick and those videos are amazing
nice info, thanks for all the details and extensive explanation
Awesome and very impressive! Nice all round skills. Thanks for another video.
Finally! Someone else that holds things with their feet...
+Stay Primitive My Friend Wow! Very cool! I do have a piece of advice though...when you put the added pieces of clay on the inside, put them one side at a time and put pressure across to the other side. The reason is you want to be careful about trapping air bubbles inbetween the clay pieces. You will have much better luck as you build things, with clay with no air trapped! Thank You for posting and doing!! Best
I learned the hard way about those pesky bubbles. :) just found you today! Soo Happy! Love it!! New fan here!!
Stay Primitive My Friend Good for your success! I look forward to you tutorial! I had the same issues with exploding stuff. I believe most of it was air bubbles! When I was aware of this and took more care I had less explosions. Any little pocket of air will cause an explosion
What I've learned from Primitive Technology (yeah that guy again). He keeps his tinder close to the board so the ember ignites it instantly and only start blowing if the ember/tinder is smoking on it's own. Nice vids a welcome change from the other Survival Channels.
Impressive video .
Lilly sent me here I am a new subscriber. I love her site no hope to enjoy yours as well!
Hey Cedrik, really good videos and techniques. Also I really like the fact that you are using no fancy gear at all, only a simple knife depending on the task. By the way, just realized how much your English has improved since your ~2011 videos, wow ^^ Cheers!
Brilliant! Nice job! :)
Lache pas! Tes vidéos sont vraiment cool! Je suis de Québec moi aussi ;)
JedQC hahaha on est tous familié avec notre accent,je l ai perdu en habitant 4ans alberta
merci pour le bon video!! continue avec des nouveau .
10:15 what a plot twist, haha!
I love this guy
I'm sorry everyone keeps comparing you to primitive tech :( not only are you located in a totally different area in the world but your content is genuinely different! Don't get discouraged please, you have some real fans :)
انا من قطر بلد عربي احب ما تفعله واشجع على ذالك واتمني لك التوفيق وانا من عشاق الطبيعه
you are a genius
+Stay Primitive My Friend good to see you respecting your ancestors, where do you live?
Fantastic work!
good tip for purifying clay, spil it to small pieces and dry in the sun, crush it into powder then you can filter out the rocks anything else, like panning for gold you can separate the clay from heaver soil and sand. then add water to the pure clay when ready to work it.
I would round it more and deeper and put a hole on each side so string can be put through so it can be hung over fire to purify water!
WTF ce cadeau que t'as eu quand la braise est apparue !! :D
Je connais un chien qui va avoir une bonne gamelle pour manger ses croquettes :D
Suggestion to make a stronger pot using coil method. Mix clay with water to make a slurry. Make slips (1-2 mm deep) close together on the top and bottom of the coil. Add slurry mixture to paste together. Use normal amount of force and shaping techniques. This is a pottery technique called "slipping and scoring"
I saw someone making the notch larger under the hearthboard, allowing a pile of dust, yet enough oxigenflow. I believe it was ReWildIUniversity.
Very cool video bro!
That is really cool! Thank you for the video - Martin
Seriously anyone who leaves an ignorant comment on here is only shining light on the fact that they arent a very good person. This kid is busting his butt on here to teach those of us who are truly trying to learn a skill that is important to us. So please move on and show respect to others. Thank you
I am very happy watching your video. It reminds me of my childhood. We played a lot with clay making some stuff like that. Next you should show us cooking something using your new container :-)
I love pottery, hope you will do more pottery videos!
By the way, maybe you should let the pottery completely dry out, let it dry for days
You might find it easier to attach the clay, and keep it attached, if you slip and score the clay while sticking it to itself.
This is another great video.. I am going to try my first pottery firing it the way that you did.... take care
You did a nice job there bro - cool video! ;)
hi I'm new to the channel and I love it
Spiffy! Now you have a container to store more refined clay, or water, or watery clay. And you can make tools out of clay, other than just containers. Like sharp things of various shapes, sizes, and uses. A pestle and mortar are extremely useful. Actually, having several pestle and mortars would be good, because you may want to use one for food type tasks, and others for things that you don't want to be involved with your food. Have you tried polishing your clay after it's dried, but before you fire it? Maybe with just a tiny bit of surface moisture.
Good videos man.
I'd recommend for other people though to make the base and walls just a tad thinner so there is less of a chance of cracking.
perfecto y muy instructivo.
made a pretty sweet ashtray!
thank you very much!!! :D
love your channel. I was wondering why certain channels about the outdoors and primitive living are more popular than others. what I found was the less talking in the video the more popular the videos. obviously this wasn't a scientific measurement of any kind, just observation. you have great videos. Please keep making them, you're pretty badass at what you do
Great video! Thanks!
It was very nice work. Thanks a lot.
Just watched 😌learning how to .. really helpful & skills ! T y
Nice demonstration.
ive been making pottery like you do for a long long time. lol some day id really like to meet you. anyways, some of my stuff like this cup in my picture. is 15 years old, some with constant use.never needed a glaze, kiln, or anything else. sure like to meet you and talk primitive technology some day
Beautiful ashtray :)
another really great vid there should be more like this on youtube and u deserve wwaaaaaaayyyyyy more subs :)
Lilly reffered you to me and I am gratefull. Please make a video on universal foods to eat from the ground that are high in carbs and protiens. Also plants that will heal bronchitis from living in the wild. Like bulbs for food pine needles for tea high in vit c and so on. Hehe I cant wait to see some real living in the wild videos. Good job my son and I are gonna go out and try it all.
It's good to see you back making videos again!! That's some good clay you have out there. Nice hand drill I didn't think you had it on that last attempt. I have done a couple of the same videos as well. It is a great challenge working with raw clay, and no knife friction fire.
Thanks for the support man I appreciate it.
You´re an ace brother!
Cool video mate, well done! How you can stand the fly´s in a swamp is even more impressive :D
You diserve more subs, it's awesome what you do. Btw french accent?
Yes! effectivement je thanks Mother nature ;) et super sympa ta poterie g un advise : entre chaque boudins tu peux venir les "ecorcher" puis rajouter une couche avec beaucoup plus d'eau pour créer une sorte de colle entre chaque couche mais apparemment tu n'a pas u besoin et le pot n'a pas une craquelure sans doute grâce aux couches que tu as rajouté par la suite.👍👍 👍 terrible l'ami @+
crush the shells of nuts into powder and mix that into your clay, and get it a bit wetter when cleaning it. takes longer to dry, but you can make thinner, harder implements. also, try making a kiln(standing oven) from the same clay. it will shorten firing times and allow you to fire more pieces at higher Temps.
Have you watched primitive technology? He is awesome as well :)
dude! he just made a fucking smelter. that guy is the shit. you know. i think he just does what we think about. because primitive technology is in all of us
yeah Primitive Technology does everything 100% and makes it all look so easy
MasterCrander Why be critical? Feel free to show how to do things better, keep your jerkness to yourself either way.
Ozark Wild so correcting someone is considered a jerk and critical? You should be thanking him that you learned something.
Rachel Pachao he isnt correcting he is just being rude
Congrats bro, for you skills! It is very interesting.... Hugs from Brazil!
Great job.
Fantastic!
Hey dude love your videos!
Vive le québec!
When you started beating the tree with the fireboard to be it sounded like 'Foot saying, "My wood. Leave."
Brilliant video Cheers
Pretty good video my friend, well done. Congratulations for your channel, i love it.
