This was a huge helpful video, the bendy bat, the hollow knob and the hole in the base, all brilliant help and very inspirational. Thank you very much.
Hah! I'm glad I'm not the only one who drops their tools! But seriously, thanks for posting this useful tutorial. I learn a lot from watching you work.
I love the 'cylinder' knob idea! Thanks!
You’re welcome. I hope it helps you!
You explained that really well thank you. I will be having a go soon.
You’re welcome. Go make some amazing pots!
You’re the best! I’m running out to make some lids, or plates, which I just learned from you also!!!!! THANK YOU 🙏
You’re welcome! Happy throwing!
This video was very helpful thanks I tried making lids this way I like the way they came out. Thanks!!
Thanks from Lockdown London Matthew! Can’t go to my studio under the circs but am noting all your top tips for when I can get going again👍🏼Good teaching skills and refreshingly concise. Cheers.
This was thee best lid video I’ve ever seen! Thank you!!!!!
Thanks! Cant wait to give you lid process a try. Love the idea of turning the wheel backwards to use my right hand inside.
Just the lesson I was looking for!
Great looking jars too!
I'll be trying that knob technique out for sure! Thanks for sharing!
Your videos are so helpful. I really enjoy watching and learning from you.
Excellent and love the knob process 💫
Great video, Matthew!! You're an excellent teacher!
Thank you for sharing your talent and lots of your time !!
So helpful!! Loved this, thank you! Definitely inspired!
I love your style of pottery! It's gorgeous!!👏👏👏 Thank you for sharing how you do the lids, it's very helpful for sure.👍
Teapots, lidded jars and skinny necked bottle are my fav to make in that order.
great tip there matt thanks for sharing ;)
You mentioned that some times the lid might still be a little to soft to put the knob on!
I have a "hairdryer" close to my wheel and that can get you out of trouble for this kind of problem. Obviously it doesn't warrant using the blow torch, so the hairdryer is perfect with this problem [and other similar problems] :)
Excellent tip about throwing the "little cylinders though" in prep for the knobs, :)
I want to get into making teapots. One of my projects.
Youre a great instructor.. super good explanation...
Watching this gives me such a peaceful feeling. You are so very talented and I learn so much from you. You give me hope I can do what you do, eventually.

very informative, thanks Matt
Mate you inspired me to get into this as hobby aye. 👌🏼👌🏼 thank you
Very clever and skillful. Thanks for sharing..
Great tips, can't wait to try them.
Yay! Go make amazing pots.
Nice job !!! Great tips... Inspiring to me to make jars and lids!! Thanks!!
Thanks! Glad to hear - go make some amazing pots!
Amazing Matthew.
wow! up until recently I did make my lids upside down BUT was leaving enough clay underneath to trim a knob! however after watching this video Matt, I'll be changing/ trying THAT idea to yours. I'll do some practicing "off the hump" to make the pre-formed knobs as you did. Wish me luck. Thank you, as always, for your informative videos, they always inspire me. [cliff from london].
I hope it goes well! Thanks for always watching
Nice technique! Thank you.
Great designs!
Very nice, definitely better than my lids and I like the hollow knob (mine are usually solid) cheers Bob 🇬🇧
Knobs that size definitely could be solid but the technique of making that way is much easier so i don’t mind them being hollow.
Very nice video. I like your reaching style. I learned a lot. Thanks!,
Excellent!
Thanks for helpful info throughout the process. Especially how/when you wire off bats, etc.. I will try your wet plastic bat technique during trimming of the lid.
You’re welcome! Good luck
Loved that one! Very helpful... I've been working on casseroles and just dealing with whatever sizes of openings came out... good idea to make them all the same-size openings, that never occurred to me! Thanks for the tips. Also like your method of attaching knobs, I've been just carving them out of the clay left at the bottom after forming the main part of the lid, so my lid 'handles' are quite flat and disc shaped, but your knobs are much more stylish... will try that tomorrow when I'm back in the studio! Thanks!
Yes you’ll definitely get a better shaped knob by adding some additional clay instead of carving out from the excess clay. I’m glad the video helped! Cheers
Great work
Rather clever, thank you!
You’re welcome
Thanks...that was really helpful.
Great tips, especially the knobs.
Thanks. I’m super thrilled I figured that out for my own sanity. haha
Matthew Kelly Pottery I have been throwing them on using the wet lump method or trimming a knob on. Might try your method next
Nice! Thank you.
All great ideas....
Thank you
Awesome
New sub!! Nice video I’ll be making those this weekend thanks Matt!!!
Welcome! Good luck on the jars and lids.
Awesome!!
Thanks
So inspiring! Love your videos!
Wawww Greetings from Hungary
Thank you 🙂
Muito bom 👏
Thank You
I was searching through the comments to find out why you have to cut the hole into the knob, and I can’t find the reason. Will it crack or something if you keep the air in it? Thanks for this amazing video! Just made my first lids last night and am excited to try these! Thank you! Following now too!!!!
Yes there’s a good chance they would crack from the trapped air inside if you don’t put the hole in them. I hope the video helped your lid making process!
What do you use to drill the hole and when in the drying process do you drill? it looks very clean and precise
So cool! Thank you for the lesson. Lidded jars will be my next project lesson to practice, practice, practice.
Once you make one feel free to share a picture. I’d love to see.
Thanks for the video. Subscribed I tell all my students I’ve just about seen all the videos on RUclips don’t know how I missed yours but I’ll be watching them thanks again #crackeduppottery
Welcome to the channel!
Amazing video 🤩 question here?: what are your sqare bats made of? And thikness is?
Thanks so much for all the shared info🤩
Love this!! Can see using this with many aspects of pottery -- pumpkin stems?? Is that a screw driver???
Since the lids are hollow, do you need to poke holes to allow air to release during firing?
Interesting
👍🎺
👍🌹
I love your work !!!! 💚 Your wheel hums ! Is it a Brent ?
I have one Pacifica and one Brent. The Brent did make a lot of noise but I was able to fix that.
These are so cool. Question… when you are pulling out the lip do you also lift slightly so when you flip it over it looks like it bends down?
Also, how many hours a day do you spend in the studio?
Do you ever make French butter keepers?
I have never worked with clay, however, I am thinking of ways to make clay lids for clay pots to keep food cold without electricity. We are moving to the mountains and will be living off grid. I am thinking of buying oblong clay pots to keep our food cold. My thoughts are towards trying
To mold lids for the planters, by making styrofoam frames and then molding the clay into shape. Do you think that is possible? These are just my idea's that I conger in my think tank. If you have a few minutes to make a comment I would certainly appreciate it. Thank you sincerely.
Do you let them dry together
I tried and it didn’t look good any suggestions
what material are your bats made out of?
Tempered masonite
