    Bill, I just wanted to thank you for everything you do. Every time I'm stuck with a clay problem that even my professors can't seem to help, I turn to your videos. You make everything so easy to understand, and I think you're an amazing teacher. Thank you, my man.

    Your videos are wonderful. Having just the music is relaxing and helps me focus on the motions needed to get the forms right. Occasionally, I can't see the tool you're using b/c the text covers it. I'm familiar w/ most by name or the parts I can see, but sometimes it might be helpful to show an unusual tool w/ no text or anything else blocking it. Great learning tool. Keep it up! Thanks! Loved the dog in the background!

    Hello wondering what clay you used to make your molds and you bisqued fire them to come 08 right.

  • @Twobirdsbreakingfree
    @Twobirdsbreakingfree Год назад +2

    Something doesn't add up here; these clay slabs formed over a curved surface crack like crazy as they dry, but the slab in the video didn't crack at all. Also, the slab should have stuck to the mold and been impossible to remove. You didn't put clingfilm or anything else to prevent sticking.

    • @BillvanGilderPottery
      @BillvanGilderPottery  Год назад

      Hi, Twobirds, It’s all about letting the slab dry to the leather hard stage on a mold / form that’s less than a 45* angle. A slope of more than a 45 & the slab will crack as it shrinks. As it’s drying & shrinking it releases itself from the mold surface… hence, no releasing agent used.

    • @Twobirdsbreakingfree
      @Twobirdsbreakingfree Год назад +1

      @@BillvanGilderPottery interesting, but for a curved or hemispherical form it wouldn't make sense to talk about a particular angle, right? In that case would it not be the degree of curvature of the surface (i.e. the larger the radius of the hemisphere, the lower the degree of curvature) that determines whether you get cracking or not as it dries?
      You said also that the clay pulls away from the mould as it dries and shrinks, but this has me confused, as for the hump mould i was under the impression that the clay would be tightening onto the surface of the mould as it dries and shrinks because it's contracting inwards (as opposed to a slump mould where the clay pulls away from the surface).

      I don’t let the slab stiffen up at all, Frank. It gets roiled out, smoothed, trimmed a bit & immediately put onto the mold. Allowing the slab to set up would make the pressing difficult.

      Look for a pottery guild in your area, and join. Guilds usually have pottery sales once or twice a year, and t!he people attending really love pottery. You can also get some good advice on selling in your area at guild meetings. Google craft shows in your area, apply and get a booth. Unless your pottery us really good, it's hard to get into a gallery. Expect to fork over around 40% of the purchase price to the gallery on any sales. Selling art is hard and takes persistence!
