Just a note to say, that these Shorts are just a small part of the content I create for RUclips. If you'd prefer to watch longer, narrated films about this process I also make those! So make sure you check out my channel beyond just these short clips.
Reminder, any UNFIRED clay pot can be broken down into normal clay again if processed like this. Fired clay, will never break down into normal clay again hence archeologists often finding pots as they won’t return to normal clay and soil
There is actually a way to recycle fired clay. It is just too complicated to be worth doing in all but the largest industrial settings. But for potters, ceramists, and sculptors effectively, you are right.
@@Naomi_best_ simply put clay is just sand mixed with mud and water, as well as some organic material. When you fire clay you vitrify it, turning into ceramic. Sand is just ground down ceramic. Grind it fine enough and you can make clay all over again if you just get the ratios correct.
Okay this is weird. I woke up an hour ago and asked IN MY MIND, NOT ON GOOGLE, "Can you just break down a clay pot into dust and make more clay from it?" And here we are
@@kenjaminrarThe internal structure of clay changes when fired, it’s not really the same stuff as unfired pottery afterwards. Plus, many items are glazed + fired, meaning they have a protective coating that won’t allow it to be broken down as easily as you see in this video. The pot used in the video is unfired and has no glaze, you can tell from the matte texture & chalky red colour.
Man that’s been happening to me so much recently on shorts and I have no answer for it?? I think of something and the next video it’s related to that topic it’s freaky
@@jackmccormick8657 Weird right? The strangest thing I have had like that is I had a dream about a 2 sided guitar (Strings on either side of the neck and body) then Rob Scallon uploaded a video of exactly that 2 days later.
I remember when I was in ceramics, my teacher would take the students that weren't doing anything and force them to help lay out the wet clay on the table, I offered to help because I was never bothered by the feel, and one girl thanked me and left so she didn't have to do it.
Hi I do work like this sometimes. Can confirm, incredibly fun stuff. Sometimes I don't even try to throw anything i just screw around with the clay on the wheel or with my leftover scraps. It's great
Who are all you people who had a ceramics class in high school? This is a thing? Is it a new thing, or maybe a white school thing? I've never heard of this before
@@BooBuKittyPhukIf by "white" you mean american, yes, ceramics is a common class option for high school or even middle school as an option for an art class.
@@splayharmony2616 well yeah I figured it would be an elective, but do a lot of schools have this? Or just rural schools? Or nice schools in richer areas? I know I just learned that some high schools still have shop classes too, which I always thought was an old thing from back in the day or was just in movie high schools. They would've never let kids work with power tools at any of the schools I went to lol
If I win the lottery I'm buying Florian a pug mill. As a man with clicky wrists watching him wedge clay invokes a deep unease, but then again, maybe they're clicky because I've not wedged enough clay.
I saw a video on Korean kimchee pot making, it looked like the potter wedged the clay with a mallet and then his feet. I imagine that wedging is really hard work, would you consider those alternative methods or can you see a concern with them?
Bruh, the best part that I loved the most was how they got the water out with the sponge. It was like a, “Oh that makes so much sense!!” Moment for me 😂😂
☀️Just saw you on the Great Pottery Throw down… You were so kind about their mug handles……. especially when you finish everything with such wonderful precision ❣️❤
You need a big spatula for the edges and bottom of that container - like the silicone ones you use to cook with - they are so perfect and really get it all so easily I love your videos 💗💕💖
I've taken a handful of pottery classes in college and I loved it. After I wanted to get my own set up (something small) for at home. Pottery helps me so much with anxiety and it's simply just relaxing. Could you educate me in what I should purchase? Thx
Idk why this is so satisfying but I love how he speeds it up and speeds it up to a point it just sounds like slapping. My teacher does this all the time and I was wondering back in my ceramics 1 class why he does this, and now in my senior year making the best teapots and vases my skills can produce it’s so satisfying watching the clay produce a magnificent price of art 😊
I recommand you to put a towel between the clay and the plaster, because it would destroy your masterpiece if some was integrated by accident. The ambiant moisture would inflate the plaster, which would break the ceramic.
hello do you remember me The person who commented on your short video a year ago. It's been a while since I posted a comment, so I'm a little embarrassed hehe I'm enjoying the video.
Used to go to my mom's pottery class while she worked on assignments in college and they had an old clawfoot tub where they would recycle clay and the teacher would let my brothers help stomp it to combine it. They would let us play with the clay while my mom worked on her pieces. Sometimes, they would let us put our little creations in the kiln to take back to the dorms....I miss the smell of the clay residue filling the building ♡

@florian gadsby
Put this at the end of the video or pin your comment 😊
You know once you add water you can't put that back in the Crayola clay box right? /j
RUclips has reels and vids split like two different worlds. Often times people who use reels just DONT have the attention span for real videos.
Thank you, because I not only want to see the process but finished product
Nah i ll pass

Thats good. Or else our pottery might turn into mud as we use it 😂
@@cyruskhalvati yes it’s called grog or aggregate which can be used to mix with clay to work pretty much the same as sand or any other temper material
Bro that looks like the mystery meat from the school lunchroom😭😭
MYSTERY MEAT LMAOOO
Guess that’s the mystery solved
Pfft but your not wrong
More like to the chum bucket
Probably tastes the same too thh
This is what good clay sounds like
Ya actually😊
are you referencing something
@@migstuhh.editsfrthat’s what good possay sounds like
After watching the first couple seconds, I realized I’ve never seen a sponge actually sponge before.
real
I’m genuinely confused by this comment.. 😂
The more important thing is that you don't even need a sponge 🧽you can just pour the water 🙂
This brought back memories from high school ceramics class. Our teacher had 2 of these buckets and they smelled awful. I miss that class so much
Ahh yes the memories of recycling clay in art class and sneezing low fire clay dust for the next week
OMGGG yessss that is literally me
Hmm, tasty lung cancer
حججالتبغتثلان❤❤ريغيا
What I like about pottery is that you never run out of resources, except for time and energy.
That's a TON of work. Great job as always 👌👏
That crunch 😬😬🤤🤤🤤I miss ceramics so much💚
I want to eat this clay.... omg my mouth is watering 🤤🤤
Damn bro you must love McDonald's then
@@octavius3800 🤣🤣🤣 clay is more yummy then McDonald's for me
Wow nanu tinbeku anstide
SAME
Okay this is weird. I woke up an hour ago and asked IN MY MIND, NOT ON GOOGLE, "Can you just break down a clay pot into dust and make more clay from it?" And here we are
you can so long as it hasn’t been fired, i think
@@beetlejuice01 huh, so why can't you do it once it's been fired?

As someone who used to take a pottery class for 4 years this was one of my favorite parts, recycling the clay.
We would fight over who got to take the recycled clay!
This is so calming
I love the pink color of the raw clay it’s so beautiful.
I don’t know but that looks delicious
ikr😭
Don't know about the taste, but the smell is nice
@@msrodrigues2000ohh yes. I like the smell too
I remember when I was in ceramics, my teacher would take the students that weren't doing anything and force them to help lay out the wet clay on the table, I offered to help because I was never bothered by the feel, and one girl thanked me and left so she didn't have to do it.
It leaves your skin so dry though, that’s the only thing I didn’t care for
It can be hard on the skin of some people, even painful
Look at how red his hand is in the video, I can feel how itchy that is
@@chezball_5088 Its More of a muddy feel, I thought of it like that.
that's nice of you 😊
Playing with that seems so fun I would just play with it💀😭
Edit: not yall saying I have a dirty mind u are the ones with dirty minds💀
Can someone confirm
@@Chrxs210 As the clay, I can confirm that i am indeed very fun to play with.
That’s what they do, they’re playing with clay, with purpose
It is so fun I have sculpture and we are using clay but it dries out way to quickly to even get to have fun with it
Hi I do work like this sometimes. Can confirm, incredibly fun stuff. Sometimes I don't even try to throw anything i just screw around with the clay on the wheel or with my leftover scraps. It's great
Art teachers are the best
That clay loaf looks so nice to handle.
I miss our highschool pottery class and the stenchy pot of moldy clay lol

Watching pottery shorts and tik toks has helped me in my pottery class at school, so thank you
I feel like I'm in my middle school art class. I used to love watching her cut the clay. Clay days were my favorite days
*The Forbidden Meatloaf*
I will encourage my children into pottery
Everything reminds me of her…💔😔
@Microwaved_dirt I miss both of them…💔😭
🤣😂
@@the.real.mia-evie So true✊😔
lord have mercy
Lol.
I love this video. I've come across it a few times and it never gets old. 😆
If I win the lottery I'm buying Florian a pug mill. As a man with clicky wrists watching him wedge clay invokes a deep unease, but then again, maybe they're clicky because I've not wedged enough clay.
The asmrrrrr
The crunch was very satisfying, you should make a compilation of similar shots
I was wondering who stole my
laundry basket.
Underrated af lol
For those who have never made pottery: You cannot reconstitute clay once it has been fired.
Thank you for the explanation!
Is that always true? Because I seem to remember a video about mixing broken pieces of fired clay into clay to better the clay you use in the future?
That is correct of what I know as well
I was wondering about that. I still wonder if there's any use for broken fired clay
@@thedudeamongmengs2051 i would assume so, maybe you can turn it into paint, maybe use it to texture a clay creation. i don’t know though
I saw a video on Korean kimchee pot making, it looked like the potter wedged the clay with a mallet and then his feet. I imagine that wedging is really hard work, would you consider those alternative methods or can you see a concern with them?
한국 알고보면 이상한 나라에요
@@Kmr546 ㄹㅇㅋㅋㅋ
ㅋㅋㅋ
Sounds exellent to me if we're talking greater amounts! You still have to wedge it though. Most important step.

I love watching this video a million times
omg the sponge is such i good idea i never thought of that when i’m processing clay. i just pour off what i can and let the rest evaporate 😭
i remember doing this in highschool, so fun breaking the old unused dried works, the crunching and crumbling was unmatched 😂
You should make a full on asmr video of just this XD
It's the most satisfying thing ever
YAY IM FAMOUS WITH 11 LIKES INCLUDING MYSELF!!
I love recycling clay, so satisfying.
left brain: do not eat that. it is clay and you will throw up.
right brain: ouuhgh......... mystery chocolate
Why is everything suddenly sus to me-
😭💀✋
Lol.
I should text her💀😂
Touch grass yourself and see 👀 if that is sus
Please go outside and touch grass you immature gremlin
you need to touch grass
Other: it looks satisfying playing with that ☺️
Me:… i want to eat it 😋
Me too.... 😁
Me too.....
That’s that WAP
That must be so satisfying !
The texture, and the fact that it can be repurposed. I love, love, love the idea of repurposing things.
☀️Just saw you on the
Great Pottery Throw down…
You were so kind about their
mug handles……. especially when you finish everything with such wonderful precision ❣️❤
Seus vídeos são tão relaxantes e seu trabalho é perfeito!! ❤️❤️
Verdade
yummy. chocolate icecream😋
нет, это глина
I've always wanted to eat this stuff ever since I saw an episode of Pepa pig making cups and vaces with this..
😋😋😋 mee too
That’s what good clay sounds like
I could do this all day even if I wasn’t getting paid enough
You need a big spatula for the edges and bottom of that container - like the silicone ones you use to cook with - they are so perfect and really get it all so easily
I love your videos 💗💕💖

The way the bucket got dragged away felt like a horror movie.
I will not elaborate.
Crunchy yum
"I should call her"
I recommand you to put a towel between the clay and the plaster, because it would destroy your masterpiece if some was integrated by accident. The ambiant moisture would inflate the plaster, which would break the ceramic.
It cracks like a chocolate bar, such a satisfying sound!
I’ve come for my involuntary bi-monthly viewing of this clip. It always pops into my feed randomly.
Bro is very beautiful I like this work bro is very cool
hello do you remember me The person who commented on your short video a year ago. It's been a while since I posted a comment, so I'm a little embarrassed hehe I'm enjoying the video.
perfect
Am I the only one who initially thought it was a cup of coffee?
my partner was half asleep and thought the sponge was bread and said "that's so much bread"
Thanks for you)
That was the most disgusting, vile, horrific sound I have ever heard and am now going to spend my night crying
crazy to me that people still work with clay in the modern day, literal goop. it's amazing
Do you know how literally any pottery at your house, and trough out history where made of? CLAY!
why is this so satisfying
I didn't know you could recycle clay like that, that's kinda cool
Cool! That looks so so funny, If i had a single bone of creativity this would be my dream job!
何度も作品を作り直せるなんてすごい
This gave me an insane amount of joy! Thank you❤!
The CRUNCH from that dry pot is so good
I’ve never seen people recycle especially in my ceramics class so this was really cool
I'm sorry but-
THE SOUNDS 💀
Love how he just Minecraft sponged the water out of the bucket 🪣

My hands feel soft watching this 🥹
OH GOD THAT IS SO SATISFYING 🤤❤️
This gives me good vibes
I love how you can recycle clay just like that. Its satisfying and doesnt cost alot of money 😊❤
Forbidden chocolate ice cream😅😅
The more i watch your content the harder i fall in love with pottery and now i wanna try it out but idek where to start :')
That's what I love about clay. No matter how hard u mess up, you can always reuse it til you got what you want! 😁
He is recycling a Panzerfaust
Why’s that sponge look so edible
It's so satisfying to hear that wet sound 😅
it looks like my bubblegum that i havent spit out for a day
The wet clay sounds 😍
Good clay
Great job ❤
Molding clay has the added benefit of smoothing the skin. It always felt great
Oooo that was nice! I really wanted you to drain that clay then smack that clay!
As someone who DESPISES wedging I salute you
Ahh Forbidden Chocolate...
It's so relaxing 😌
This is the type of stuff where I fall asleep with auto play on, and then wake up to wet clay noises in utter confusion
The question is, is it edible?
Me when my boss tells me not to play with the contents of the porta potty
