When you're using a mold for anything like a bowl (larger on the outside and smaller on the inside) don't leave the clay on the mold to dry if you're placing it over the outside of the mold like here in the video. Clay shrinks as it dries and if you leave the clay on the mold when it's on the outside it will crack as it shrinks bc it can only contract as much as the mold allows, anything after a certain point and it will break. Now if you're putting the clay on the inside of the bowl you can leave it for as long as you want bc the clay can shrink with nothing to prevent it from doing so, since the clay is sitting inside the bowl. Also the plaster absorbs the moisture from the clay, so when you remove the piece from a plaster mold it dries quicker bc it's wicking moisture as it's on the plaster. If you use anything like steel or plastic or glazed ceramic wear, the moisture remains in the clay and it takes longer to dry, it might also be harder to remove the clay from the outside like in this video if you're using plastic etc as a mold and not something that absorbs water like the plaster.
I love that bowl you made and it was so simple and nice. Except I’m gonna have to do my own rolling since I don’t have that thing you have. :( thank you
I did something similar in middle school in my art class, we where helping with a charity thing that the teacher got confirmation to take us it at the local collage near by. We worked in stations and it was really fun, you brought back great memories! :)
I want it as perfect as hand crafted can be. So no deliberate decision should diminish the perfection. This work has inperfections because it is handmade. Not because one chooses to be sloppy.
What I do is take a big chunk of clay, wedge it, and then shape it to what I want, cut through the top with a wire for a smooth top, then carve out the inside (attach foot at the end of the process)
In school my last yr 11th grade i did “pottery” but it’s rlly ceramics it’s clay without the wheel this is what we did but this yr I’m gonna try and get into pottery2 the pottery I’ve been wanting to do since I was in elementary school😮💨
I actually learned this really cool trick when I did Ceramics so we had this canvas wrapping on our table and so it would have Clay Destiny you know to keep it from sticking well one day we when we were scraping I took some of that clay dust and I just pretty much rubbed it on this mold because I was trying to make a slab plea and I had tried doing it before and I ended up breaking my plate because it kept sticking so when I rubbed that clay dust on my mold and put the clay on it it came off right easy and in the video you said I hope it doesn't stick I thought you might be interested in trying it maybe if you have a bunch of clay dust
This is not a criticism, but I have never heard of a fourth of an inch before. When he said it, I was like: what's that??!! Then I after a fourth of a second, my brain realized: it's just a quarter inch. It's like a fourth of a dollar. From a computational perspective that makes complete sense, but from a vernacular perspective it'd totally take me a moment to figure it out!! Great video though, also great technique. Thanks to this guy for making this.
For baking I think you can use your oven or a window seal/sunlight just make sure it's heated and obviously it might take a bit longer (Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but this is how I was taught in like 3rd grade in art class so I figured it would work)
“Guess what we’re gonna do first.” Me, who knows little about pottery and just finds the vids satisfying: wedge? “You guessed it, make a slab.” “I didn’t actually but I appreciate the faith that you have in me”
"I don't know about you"
Me: but I'm feeling 22
Ooh ooh
Thought the same thing 💀
Haha our queen taylor
Same Swiftie brains
Came here to say this
I'm glad someone agrees with me about the unevenness. It's what makes it look unique and handmade!
“A fourth an inch thick should be plenty”
SIR THAT’S LIKE 3/4 😭😭
Did he mean a forth off an inch.
@@TehBIGrat oh come on who says that 😭😭
He didn't say his was ¼"thick, he just said ¼" thick should be plenty 😁

Thank you for the tutorial you are so underrated
Oh for sure! I love sharing and thank you😊
This is actually how I learned I never learned with the wheel
I also like my bowls and cups uneven, it looks so originaly hand made. 😊
Yo ho, Yo ho, A Pirates Life For meeee 💀😐
We pillage the plunder, we refill the loot. Drink up me ‘earties, yo ho.
I had to😗😗😗
I love that bowl you made and it was so simple and nice. Except I’m gonna have to do my own rolling since I don’t have that thing you have. :( thank you
Oh my God he's flipping adorable
i made one at school but it was called a “knee bowl” because we shaped the clay around our knee and not another bowl!
That sounds disgusting; awesome
Oh cool!
It’s looked like a mushroom when you were smoothing it out
I made one of these bowls in my ceramics class almost two years ago. Where I used a bowl from home for it. And I still have it.
I kept most of my pottery.
Wow! Thank you!!!
Damn I'm learning so much in these CZcams shorts
Excellent that’s my goal!!!
Oooo I love that press
so i dont have a wheel but im supposed to have that big ass roller contraption

Good video, subscribed
Wow ❤Next level 😮I never thought that it will turn into this
My mind is so messed up I saw the wheel on the table and thought he was in a wheelchair
I thought I was the only one that said “howdy howdy”
Lmfao me at first thinking he was making a difference type of bowl 🌿👀
Are you pottery my wheel is broken so I’m gonna try this
Reminds of my high school pottery class.
thanks 🥰
I love your shirt
One question were do you get your clay
I get my clay from a clay supply store in PDX!:)
@@benjamin.cahoon ok thank you
My guy just made a perfect ramen bowl
When you put it over a metal glass or paper bowl it will stock so make sure to use some canvas in-between. (He is using a plaster mold)
I want it as perfect as hand crafted can be. So no deliberate decision should diminish the perfection. This work has inperfections because it is handmade. Not because one chooses to be sloppy.
How do you make a cup
I have a full video on how to make a mug on my channel!
Bro be really looking like 😊
so cute
Thank you!!
The real thing holding people back from pottery is accses to a kiln
I know:/ I’m trying to make a series of how to make pottery without a studio
you raise your hand and the walls of the bowl come up - the first thing that came to my mind
You are super adorable!
I usually put the slab on the mold first and then cut it. It’s it’s still pretty wet make sure to leave it on the mold until it’s dry
Perfect
Can you make a part two so you can paint it
I don't have a pottery wheel. but at least I have a roller
Yes! But I have a roller what cost 10x than wheel.
Is this the kid from iCarly grown up
Hahahaha naw
What I do is take a big chunk of clay, wedge it, and then shape it to what I want, cut through the top with a wire for a smooth top, then carve out the inside (attach foot at the end of the process)
I have a question
Could u do instead of a large one can u do the smallest u could 😊 love your videos ☺️☺️😅😃🥰

Instead of a pottery wheel use a electric drill or a bike that is turned sideways with a plate duct taped to the wheel
You can do this with a sponge too
How long do you wait to cook it?
Nice

why did you take it off the plaster? the kind of clay i’ve used is meant to dry on it- is yours different?
Why did I read this as 'how to make a bowel'
Then why did u clickkkkkk? 😂😂
Not me over here thinking you were gonna make a pinch pot bowl-💀
Or you can use... the slab method, coil method, pinch method....
🤣🤣🤣 If you've not got a pottery wheel, But you got a big ass roller table. You might want to check your priorities.
Way to thick and how does it look after glazing and after the kiln?
How do you bake/coat them?
For baking I think you can use your oven or a window seal/sunlight just make sure it's heated and obviously it might take a bit longer (Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but this is how I was taught in like 3rd grade in art class so I figured it would work)
@@JuzzLiterte nice, thank you :)
Is that like a community center for ceramics, or is it just yours?
Its weird that he said fourth of an inch instead of quarter inch but also that was like 3/8
Omg it's Ed Sheeran 😩
Why was I thinking of something to smoke Meath with
if I had clay I would probably make a cat bowl (literally a bowl that has cat ears,a tiny tail, two eyes and whiskers)
Yes, please, i want that xD
Is it good without firing
What if u don't hav a kilm? I've always wanted to make and sell pottery, but can't afford a kilm :(
Here before 1m views
Can this be eaten from
When dry
Cool
Sir I'm pretty sure that's a lot thicker than 1/4 an inch, no?
Why isn't your clay cracking. Mine always cracks😢
ED SHEERAN?!?! THAT YOU?
Love your idea from Singalore, near Guwahabay! ❤️❤️👍
And what if you don't have a kiln?
Isn't it too thick tho. My art teacher would always tell me to trim my pieces on the wheel.
Next show us how to fire it w/o a kiln
I spat on the screen at the end
Can you make a bong?
Thats actually a great idea, I'd love to see him make one
Easier method: buy a bowl at a store
As a full time potter, don't do most of what he does.
Ed sheeran
Are you able to eat from it?
Hold up did u just say “a fourth of an inch”. No hate but it just the first time I’ve ever heard somebody say anything other than “a quarter inch”
“Guess what we’re gonna do first.”
Me, who knows little about pottery and just finds the vids satisfying: wedge?
“You guessed it, make a slab.”
“I didn’t actually but I appreciate the faith that you have in me”
I thought you were going to show us how to make a pinch pot lol
So we’re supposed to have that fancy machine but not a pottery machine

A bowl with a wheel
How to make a pottery bowl with nothing?
Yeah but wouldn’t it be easier to use a wheel like I think that it wouldn’t be as hard to use a wheel
Do you waste all the Claythat you don't need
Did he say pape bowl 🤔
