    I LOVE your videos and my art students (K-8) absolutely are mesmerized by them. We work with clay a lot and this video in particular is very informative without the boring technical aspects kids don't really need. It is refreshing to see a video that places importance on community and all of the employees play a vital role in the success of the work and the biz. thank you.... getting ready to show this again for the .... 1000th time??

    I am genuinely considering spending my life here. Pottery is my life and I've only got 3 years under my belt but time I know I will get those hours in and those years passed.

    Good on you guys ..... sometimes within me is a desire to return to the "village" way of human life- rather than the huge cities of strangers we have become.

    As a gardener to me my pots that I plant in are the gems, the softscapes and hardscapes the outfit but the pottery is the jewelry the BLING if you will of any garden or home . Thats for sharing!

    Beautiful way to live and work. As an amateur thrower, I appreciate you guys. If you ever want to take an apprentice on to teach knowing he'll not be an employee later just reach out to me. I'll start myself a kiln for my Thai wife's village.

    *1060ºC - apologies for the slip of the tongue. 10,600ºC would be a bit over-fired!

      As a potter myself, I heard what you meant and not what you really said. Amazing how the brain does these things. I was surprised that your frost-proof pots are terracotta; I'd expected stoneware. Brilliant.

    10600 degrees C = 19112 degrees F more than a little over fired. I believe that all the clay would vaporize at that temp.
