- In this week's video throwing of dinner plates, which I'll be trimming in next week's video. As well as showing how I make these plates I also go over wedging clay and the condition I want it in for these and how prepare a pad of clay for the 'throwing bats' to be attached onto.
Thanks for watching as always, it's so appreciated and if you would like to see what I'm up to everyday you can follow me along on Instagram: Instagram - / floriangadsby

Hey! If you ever get to read this, I just wanted to thank you for making these videos. They are so helpful! You are a true professional. There are no ads, and this is so rare these days. This makes watching your videos even more enjoyable. I started throwing about 2 months ago, and your videos really help me. Thank you so much!!!
The timing of your voiceover on the continuous shot at 4:39 is crazy. Soooo clean, just like your technique and descriptions.
i started throwing a couple years ago at school, but watching your videos have helped me improve so much!! thank you
Thanks for taking your time to watch, hearing they've helped you improve makes all the time and effort spent creating these films so very worthwhile.
Whats that machine name and how much price it would be?
You are one of the best educators. Thank you for making these videos.
14:11 "you must subscribe to Florian Gadsby!" I laughed so hard!!! 🤣🤣🤣 that was so smooth! hint hint 😏
Promptly subscribed.
@@crystallombardo3167 Me too!!!
I fully agree with the comment below. Your videos show a high level of professionalism and your explanations are thorough. You don't leave out the small details. This really makes all the difference. Thank you, Florian. You are a great teacher!
Just getting into wheel ceramics and going to set up my own home studio. Thank you SO much for sharing your work and techniques. It is a joy to learn from you.
Thank you for leaving in the last minute or so of cleanup, it is calming and almost therapeutic. The fact that you share your passion and knowledge with us is amazing, I appreciate your efforts. =D
Thank you Florian, wonderfully thrown and explained, I tell my students to watch your videos. 😊
Seeing you made me want to become a potter!! thank you for giving me a dream!
Hey from Jerusalem! I just started taking pottery classes and I use these videos as inspiration. The effort you've spent shows - I really appreciate it. Thank you! 🧡
I've watched so many teaching videos by other potters, but I have to say your videos are always the best. I've learned so much from you already! Thank you.
Can’t begin to say how much I love your work and helpful videos. I have learned a lot! Thanks!
I really appreciate you giving the detailed explanations for all of your actions!!
I thought the other day, I want to watch some pottery videos. Your channel popped up and now I'm hooked. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills, but also for the time, effort, and money spent making great quality videos.
Thank you so much for the demo. I used the skill and made 2 small bows and a plate. So happy. And thanks so much. Pls shoot more how to video for our beginners. Wish you a great weekend.
Another incredible video! Very informational and the quality is beautiful.
I really enjoy watching the process.. thanks Florian
As always very helpful and timely information. Thank you for posting!
The master! What a great video. I'm prepping to throw a plate or two today so these tips are incredibly helpful. Thanks Florian!
Thank you... and I hope it proves useful! There's a million ways of making plates and this really is just one approach, but I wish you the best, they're fun to make when the clays in the right condition.
Great video! Luckily, I am already a subscriber! I started watching The Great Pottery Throw Down, and now I have a much better appreciation for your work!
I loved the way you explain and make easier and so helpful! 😊
Thank you this helps me so much. I am self teaching watching your videos.
Wow looks so relaxing, you make it look so easy.
Such a great tutorial. I respect your attention to detail. And I subscribed! It could’ve been the hypnotism though!
Hahaha very hypnotic spiral.
😬
I just love to watch ur videos..... really peaceful ❤️❤️
So pleased to hear so - thanks for taking your time to watch!
The spiral is indeed mesmerizing.
Your work is so beautiful. Your videos are very helpful. What clay are you using here?
I love your videos so much, they have helped me learn how to throw more than any class I took in college. Thank you! I have been doing your technique of attaching bats with the pad of clay, but I recently discovered bat grip sponges which are inexpensive and make the process much quicker for me. Have you ever tried these?
Cool, I love such things, you are incredible
Very cool video. I have wondered how hand made plates are made before.
Very good thank you ! Love the idea of a hole 🤗
These videos are so so helpful, thanks! I'm dealing with a form of arthritis and the idea of using softer clay really appeals to me - what kind of objects other than plates would you use it for?
Always helpful
Thanks for this video, Florian. I just started on a plate throwing adventure to produce plates for my family. Your advice will be put to use tomorrow. I am going to hydrate my clay a little more before I throw. The plates from 2 days ago were with dryer clay and were a struggle. Your video helped me figure out some issues I was having with my throws. Can’t wait to watch the trimming videos. Do you ever throw on plaster bats?
you're amazing!🙌
Great vids, I find using damp chamois leather as a super way of sticking batts to the wheel without clay.
I've never tried those but should give it a try. Thanks for watching!
Estoy aprendiendo ingles para poder entenderte al 100 %. Deseo con todo mi corazón algún día ser tan pro como vos. Soy tu fan, gracias por tu calidad de videos, de profesor, de profesional y por tener la generosidad de compartirlo con el mundo. Un abrazo
here from Tom Scott and I've already subscribed and signed up to a pottery class!
10:26 I finally figured out, at this exact point, why you were throwing on the board instead of the metal wheel.
While watching I kept guessing why but none of my guesses were right. LOL
at this point it ALL finally made sense to me. 😬
That was cute how you stood on little blocks to wedge the clay!😅
Интересно наблюдать за процессом, успокаивает :)
Hypnosis unnecessary to snag me Darlin'.. the moment I first found your channel a couple months ago, I began with the oldest videos and worked my way forward.
I've always wanted to get into pottery but have never had the resources to do so. Maybe one day, when I am retired and the kids are out of school themselves could I perhaps make a run for it. Regardless, I enjoy watching you and even though I have maybe 12-15 pottery channels, yours is #1!
I hope to catch an opening so I can buy some pieces. I am crazy about the teapots, all yr mugs and the display sets, although truthfully, I love everything you create.
Rock on!
😀🤘💋💋

Hmm, having control over moisture content from start to finish seams like it could be a cool advantage to making reclaim.
It certainly helps a lot. I can also add the soft reclaim to harder blocks of new clay to soften it down.
@@floriangadsby Are you able to purchase clay at varying moisture content from producers? I suppose that would just be paying for water if sold by weight or volume lol
I literally subscribed right when you hypnotized me to lol
Amazing
I'm not quite sure what just happened, but when I came to I had subscribed..
Hi Florian! Do you have any tips for a beginner of all beginners?! I've signed up for a pottery class! Are there any "musts" for a tool kit, etc? 🙏 I love love LOVE your videos!! Thank you so much for being so informative and educational! 😊 Love from Canada! 🇨🇦
I hate wedging. Love your videos!
Haha, on smaller scales I don't mind it, it's a little bit therapeutic. I used to hand wedge batches of 150kg during my apprentice days, so I'm happy I don't have to do that anymore, although it was a good workout!
I'm saving up for a de-airing pug mill myself.
Awesome
Thank you so much for the video! I am taking away good tips from you. One question, at what stage do you lift the plate from the bat? I guess leather hard? I have had my plates even after wiring off after throwing, it is stuck and have lost a few when I had to re-wire. What am I doing wrong? Thank you!
Yup now I got the right stuff to throw with what a difference it makes (GUYS DON'T TRY TO THROW AIR DRY CLAY)
Have you ever made bonsai pots? Would be really cool
Cara yang sangat bermanfaat untuk dipelajari, terimakasih atas informasinya dan pembuatannya 🙏
“You must subscribe to Florian Gadsby” 😂😂😂 v subtle plug there.
Thanks Florian !
Are these 25cm plus flange ?
Hi Florian, this was a very informative video! Question, what speed is your wheel at throughout different steps of the process? My teacher has always told me full speed while centering, but half speed while expanding and pulling up. Were you going half speed from ~7:55 onwards? or 8:05? Thank you so much !
Hi Florian, thank you for this amazing video. Can you make a video on how you dry and prevent warping especially for plates?
I think I mention how I do it in a few videos - but I'll add it to my list of things to potentially cover in the future. They key is to dry them very slowly and evenly. Cover with plastic wrap if you can, (old dry cleaners plastic works great), and definitely don't rush the process.
@@floriangadsby Thank you for the reply. This is my first comment on any CZcams video 😅. I recently started pottery (in my mid 30s) with hand building then moved on to wheel throwing a month ago. Your videos on centering, pulling up cylinders and trimming really helped me along the way. Now that I'm more comfortable with cylinders I'm moving on to plates and I have thrown a couple, waiting for them to dry covered. I have a similar interest in making functional pieces. Bdw I have seen people using weighted bags to prevent warping. Anyways looking forward to your videos on the same.
Thanks!
Hi Florian ☺️, Greetings from Mia the potter❤️
beautiful
Thank you, Matt!
😋The taste is delicious
Your bats? Are made of? Plywood? Mdf? Thanks for sharing this info with all of us!😊
Hi Florian. Happy birthday to you man! 30 on the 30th! In this and other video's you use a wooden handled triangle tool to clean the bat and foot area of work. What tool is that? I've been trying to find one for awhile with no success. I gravitate more toward asian/Japanese styles and pottery and I appreciate your path through your internship to your teachings. Thanks & peace, John B
how convenient! I'm wanting to make my bff a dinner set for a wedding gift but have noooo idea how to make a plate!!!
Were your starting clay weights discovered from trial and error or is there a formula you use after creating a first prototype? (Like add 20%)
They're collected from trial and error and from experience. In college we'd be given specific shapes to make and through taking notes I've ended up with quite a thorough list of weights for certain shapes. Then, with time and lots of practice, you can sort of pick and choose and alter those.
Love the video! Im just getting into ceramics and learning im slab building so I was wondering if there's a benifit to making plates on the wheel instead of with slabs and in your opinion is it a big enough difference to warrant learning the wheel?
It’s more a matter of aesthetics than anything else. I feel like it’s easier and faster to make round, symmetrical plates on the wheel rather than throwing by hand. But then again I hate handbuilding so I’m probably biased.
Do you not worry about adding wood splinters to your reclaim clay by running your scraper along the wood during clean up? I've used a scraper on plaster when drying reclaim and accidentally had shards go into my clay!
woah
I didn’t know that the headspace guy had a pottery channel 🤯
Damn i really wanted to see you take off that clay at the end 👀
Do your wrists hurt after all the wedging each day, as it looks like you push at an awkward angle for your wrist?
They don't! I think maybe as I've been doing it for so long, and from a young age, that my body has sort of acclimatised to the process. That, or I just haven't discovered any pains yet...
@@floriangadsby I think that makes sense, your method of wedging also most likely puts the weight not on the wrists themselves
I was mainly asking as when I draw for long periods my wrist will start to hurt so I was curious if that translated to other hands on crafts.
Thank you for the reply 😊
thanks to tom scott for showing me another channel to binge
Sorry about that 😬
Nice plate.... I want to know something can I use stoneware for drink if I fire it with 800 c' with out glazeing it .... is it save to use
If you use an unglazed mug for coffee you probably can’t ever use it for tea afterwards, same as how an unglazed clay cooking vessel that has been used for fish will always impart a fishy taste to anything cooked in it afterwards.
Burnishing the vessel when leather hard helps control porosity by “closing down” the surface. You can also try milk treatment or cereal treatments of the interior to cut down on porosity(check out Andy Ward on YT for methods). There is also a liquid quartz sealant available which is supposed to be food safe. People ate and drank for centuries from unsealed pottery so it’s more than possible, but using some kind of treatment makes vessels much more useful.

Did you make the throwing gauge? I need one of these myself. I just haven’t took the plunge. ($$)
I bought mine from my friend, Darren Ellis, www.darrenellispottery.com/shop/1-pointer wonderful tool!
I must... Subscribe...
Wait a sec, I already am? Weird
Hi! Wondering what is the diameter of the plate in its wet form?

Our ancestors, over the centuries, developed the technology of dinner plates so that we would no longer eat off the floor, out of the mud. And here we are in 2023, full circle :)
You: "you must subscribe" *jedi hand jesture*
Me: "subscribe I will" 😵💫
جميل جدا😍🤎👍Beautiful
8:01 good
Is it true that dinner plates are really hard to make for beginners?
They're tricky, especially if you're turning proper feet on them. But soft clay really does make it easier, what's trickier perhaps is firing them, and that's often why pottery studios/teachers/etc won't let you make them for classes as they eat up space in then kiln compared to say mugs, bowls, which you can squeeze together and fire loads of. What's most difficult is throwing and trimming them to look exactly the same, so they stack neatly and the spacing between the rims stays the same, but that's only really important if you're being very particular and critical, like me.
❣️🙏🏼❣️
&👏👏👏
What is the name of clay where can i buy?
Wait... What's the gauge for?
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ، اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ»..
14:13 ur so silly for that lmao

What kind of clay sir?? Is it porcelain clay..
I wish you can teach me how to do it
Well, I may not be able to personally, but hopefully these videos provide some useful information. Thanks for watching!
