The most excellent video on miniature pottery on CZcams. I have watched so many and you are by far the BEST ! Keep up the great content. I will watch all of your videos. From U.S.A
Thank you so much!! Maybe I should make more miniature videos :))
Thank you so much for this video. Most are just demonstration and not an actual tutorial. This is very helpful!
This was so helpful! I've had a hard time with my mini wheel but I think I was putting to much pressure on and not getting all the way centered.
It was super helpful to see you go in real-time speed instead of sped up. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this!
I'm glad it helps!🤗
Throwing in miniature presents some unique challenges. I have found that small wooden beads glued to bamboo skewers make great mini throwing sticks and will allow you to support the inside wall of the pot while you pull up the outside. I also find that a small synthetic brush (golden takylon bristles have nice springiness) is great for smoothing the outside and the rim of your thrown form.
Thank you for the tips!
@@caldervanandel throwing that small requires a new way of thinking and the creation of tools that mimic the things we do intuitively with body mechanics.
Thank you for this video! It was very helpful.
I recently purchased a mini pottery wheel also and I love throwing tiny pots on it. I used to use my big portable wheel but I found I really disliked cleaning a big wheel mess for tiny pottery. Perfect solution for my tiny pottery needs. Loved your video.
Sent over from TikTok! Thanks for the great video!
Fantastic craftsmanship. I love how well you centered your clay at the start, well done!
Thank you so much!!😊
this is great, following this to try my first mini vase :DD
Thanks for this video, it is so helpful!!!
I'm glad it helps😊
very relaxing to watch :)
Muito lindo seu trabalho amigo
Your videos are great!
Thank you!!
Sooooo cute
Very nice video and Art!!!
Thank you!!
This was so helpful, i've just bought a mini wheel from Amazon so I can make miniature item's for a dollhouse & diorama's 😃👍
That's awesome! Have fun!🤗
Hi! This is so cool - thanks for the video and demo! Your art is beautiful! I’m wondering if I don’t get a kiln…what kind of clay I can use =- I’ve seen people with quick dry clay and using acrylic paints - obviously not as nice as real fired ones but what are the alternatives? Thanks!
Can you show a tutorial on how to make a miniature plate & bowl? This is so details glad i found this channel ❤️
Thank you! I'll put it on my idea list! But unfortunately I'm in the middle of my exam year of highschool, so I don't have a lot of time to make new videos at the moment😅
@@caldervanandel Not even expected to get a reply omg thanks. Nah, its okay stick with your priorities and good luck for your exam. Highschool? Wow still so young but so talented 🥺 I'll wait patiently 💪😊
Thank you so much!!
Love you ♥️😋
Is that the smaller or larger size metal disk that comes with the wheel?
Thanks
subbed 🥰
what do you need for baking and how to bake it?
Hi thanks for making a video on the miniature wheel. I'm indecisive whether to buy one or not on Amazon just unsure what brand to buy a kiln specifically for making miniatures only and what degrees should it be fired and for how long? Hope you can help me out!! Thanks!
I fire at 1020 degrees celsius in a normal kiln for normal sized ceramics. I you are only going to make miniatures you could look at a test kiln, these are small kilns which people use to test glazes and not have to fire a whole normal sized kiln.😊
I returned my mini wheel. It drove me batty when it slowed way down with any kind of pressure. Now I do any minis on my regular wheel, much easier.
I bought that same mini wheel and gave up after I couldn't get my clay to stick or center. Your video is going to get me to dust it off this weekend. Thank you!
I'm glad you found the video helpful! You got this!!!
I Just bought a Mini Wheel and the Motor it’s Not strong enough
Which mini pottery Wheel should i buy? It’s Great Watching you!
From where i can buy this machine and how much the price of this mini pottery machine
Could you tell me the name of the pottery wheel? The link that you have used is now expired. Thanks.
I just bought a mini pottery wheel, and a kiln. I have done a bit of ceramics, but do you need to change anything about the firing time for the little vases? Or just a normal cycle determined by glaze and clay type. Thank you for sharing your skills with us.
Awesome! Have fun! I just use the same cycle, and fire them together with normal sized pieces😊
@@caldervanandel Thank you
Prachtig die mini vaasjes. Ik ben net begonnen met een mini potter wheel. Ik hoor dat je van Nederland ben, ik wil jou een paar vraagjes stellen, hoelang moeten die mini vaasjes in de oven en op hoeveel graden worden die gebakken ? Hoelang laat je de potjes drogen voor die in de oven gaan.
De vaasjes moeten in een speciale keramiek oven gebakken worden, ik bak op ongeveer 1020 graden. De vaasjes moeten volledig droog zijn om gebakken te worden, maar omdat ze zo klein zijn zijn ze na een dag of twee al droog.
Hello i was wondering which types of clay can you use on this? Would air dry clay work?
I'm not sure, but I think it will work. But you can't glaze it, but you can of course paint it.
have you ever tried to trim the foot? I might give it a shot after ordering a mini griffin. Supposedly they can hold/center very small items.
No, I've never tried trimming them, I would love to hear how it goes!😊
Can you please name the wheel name since the link to .de doesn't work.
What Mini wheel would you recommend?
may i know how many times and degree do you fire the mini vase? bisque adn glaze fire? or just glazed fire??
I fire it ones, at 1020 degrees Celsius.
@@caldervanandel slow firing or fast？
Slow, I put them together with the bisque fire of my normal, bigger ceramics.
@@caldervanandel thank you very much for your info!!! thats help me a lot:)
What kind of Color and glaze do you use? Thank you♥️
I used sunkissed SC-6 and my blue heaven SC-45 from stroke & coat Mayco😊
@@caldervanandel thank you♥️♥️♥️ i love your art!!!
Hello, thank you so much for this detailed tutorial! I have some struggles making bowl (but everything actually), every time i stop my tiny potter's wheel, the top of my bowl (or vase or anything) is always damaged... I don't know why and it makes me so sad because when its turning, it looks nice, but then I stop and it's just awful... I don't know what to do :( Do you have any advice or do you know why?
I am using terracota clay from the mark 'Soft-Ton', I do humified my fingers too, but looks less awful when I use less water... And I think my potter's wheel is same as you :)
Hi! It's really hard to keep such a small piece of clay centered, I think that's the reason why the rim gets crooked really easy. The best thing you can do is hold a sponge very carefully on the rim, while spinning the wheel.
If this doesn't work you could let the clay dry and then sand the rim afterward, to make it straight and smooth.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions😊
@@caldervanandel ah I see! 😊 sorry I am a true beginner, I am doing this to take photos for a future painting ☺️ Thank you for your advice (and quick answer), I never thought about polishing it after, might be how it end! Haha
Thanks again! I will look very closely how you’re working so I can improve myself :)
No problem at all! That sounds interesting!!🤗
Hi! What kind of clay are you using in this video?
It's standard white stoneware clay, 254 from G&S.
I bought my tabletop kiln, wheel and glazes based on your suggestions. Is there any way you can please do a video on the tabletop kiln firing for 06 including the glaze firing or pretty, pretty please share it?
Awesome! I hope you like it! What would you like to know about the kiln/firing?
@@caldervanandel Thank you for replying. I am interested in your firing table, temps and times for 06 including for the glaze.
Mine is not that complicated. For bisque I fire to 600 degrees Celsius in 5 hours, and then as fast as possible to 1020 degrees Celsius. I do the same thing with the glaze fire, but as fast as my kiln goes to 1220 degrees Celsius.
@@caldervanandel This is awesome! Much appreciated!
No problem😊
Did you fire it in a regular kiln?
I fired it in a kiln specially for ceramics😊
hi i'm her child on pc
😍😍😍😍😍😍
Is there a way to fire it at home, with an oven?
Ceramics need to be fired in a kiln, specially made for it. You could try out air dry clay😊
i have a cone 10 porcelain clay. Will it work on a mini wheel?
Sorry for my late response, I think it will be harder to do, but not impossible😅
@@caldervanandel thanks for your reply, I tried the procelain, and you're right it was difficult. What type of clay do you recommend? Also some suggestions for glazes and firing?
I use standard white stoneware clay. And you can use any glazes you use on normal sized pottery😊
hii.what kind of clay are you using?
Hi! I'm using standard white stoneware clay. I use 254 from www.potterypassion.com
