This was just amazing. I like your idea of making your own pottery forms from craft store wooden pieces and the insulation. I will be using more cling wrap in the future. Thanks
So many tips as usual on this Chanel! Live the plates and I may just have to try now. Could you please explain a little more on the way to propound the episome salt. Thanks again Vaughn!!😊
I always LOVE your programs. Question? I made one of the large, floppy edge bowls. It was fully dry, Laguna B-mix no grog, bisque 04, slow speed. I put it in the kiln, bottom down and it distorted so much it didn't look like anything I put in the kiln. Any suggestions? Thank you.
Wow Vaughn once again you have showed such amazing techniques and I have learned so much. I LOVE that you cut the clay off the long way to get a longer piece! How did I not think of that! You are truly such an incredible artist and maker. We are soo blessed to have you as our teacher. THANK YOU!! What exactly is wire wool please?
Vaughn, when you fire these platters will you use stilts? If so, how many? I’m wondering if the platters will slump between the stilts if you don’t use 3 or 4 across the bottom.
Thank you so much!!! I am enjoying your videos. I am learning so much. Where do you get that plastic? I need some of that. I am also going to get some of that foam. Thanks again!!!
Thanks, Vaughn. I'm working in red earthenware cone 03 and my slab pieces with feet will often lie unevenly on flat surfaces because of mild inevitable warping during drying. Stoneware pieces would probably settle nice and flat during firing but not my earthenware. How would you try and rectify this? Thank you so much!
If you can send a photo of the pieces I will ponder this one. I bisque at cone 01 and glaze at cone 04 where I stilt the pieces for glaze firing. I do not get any warping even on plates and platters.
It looks good but the cost is prohibitive to ship 4000miles. I found it for $48 plus tax and shipping. Thanks I may ask PSH if they might make a similar clay type.
Thank you Vaughn, I look forward every week to your videos.
Thanks.
Thank you for sharing! I always learn so much from you. 🙏🏼
I enjoy all of your videos, but the hand building videos are best for me!
Another great video filled with tips and techniques! Thank you Vaughan!!!!! 🤗
Thanks again.
Nothing like one of your videos with my morning coffee! Hugs from Michigan...
Thanks stay warm.
That was great Vaughn! Thank you so much
You are welcome.
Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge! I love watching your videos, I learn new stuff every time :)
Thank you, it is great to know they help you. Thanks
Vaughan
Thanks so much for this! I’m one of the hand builders that’s doing your workshop next weekend. Looking forward to meeting you!
I'm so jealous. :)
@@staciebarndweller774 Envious!
That's so great you'll be able to be at his workshop! Soak up the knowledge and enjoy!
Me too. Looking forward to seeing St Johns.
Gracias por compartir tus conocimientos!!!! un abrazo desde la Patagonia Argentina
Wish I lived in the USA, I’d book a class with you!
Hi. I loved how you did this. I'm going to try to make some of the forms and give them a try. Your videos are always so informative.
Thank you, it is nice to help.
Thank you Vaughan I’m just starting some hand building so timely video with your tips. Enjoy Newfoundland !!!
I am here now, the people are very nice as foretold. Out on the edge of North America is strange to think about.

It is hard to walk around a hardware store, so many ideas and things to use.

The gritted red clay I used for these pieces is very strong, it can be stilted and you are right it takes several.
Thank you so much!!! I am enjoying your videos. I am learning so much. Where do you get that plastic? I need some of that. I am also going to get some of that foam. Thanks again!!!
The hardware store, they sell it in rolls.
I was wondering. Do the big platters with feet slump when firing? Do you do anything to prevent this? Also, do they warp whilst drying?
The ones in the video stayed pretty flat, if you dry slowly they stay very flat.

@@Vsmithpots Thank you! The piece is in the kiln for a cone 06 bisque right now, but I'll send you a picture when it's out.
What is the material you made your forms out of? Did you cut them with a band saw?
Yes a band saw, out of insulation sheet foam for house construction.
How did you make the molds? Thank you!
They are made from construction insulation sheets, one inch and 2 inch sheets.
Where can I see the fired pieces?
They are in the follow up video on slips.
Georgie’s has a clay call mazama cone 6 and it is a beautiful colour like terra cotta I use a lot, very versatile 🤗

What was that? it wasn't canvas that you rolled your clay out inside of
I roll clay on plastic sheets.
