  • My favorite handbuilding technique -- hump molds! Using a hump mold is an easy pottery technique to slab-build ceramics with very few tools required. Slab building with a hump mold is a perfect project for beginners. You don't need a special hump mold to begin, you can use start with objects around your house!

  • @annatomala6403
    @annatomala6403 Před rokem

    So, after first "baking" you use the transparent one on your bisquit? And this lighter part (on the center of plate) is visible becouse you put the second layer of glass on your bisquit?

  • @asiak8754
    @asiak8754 Před 2 lety

    Hi! i was watching very carefully when you were glazing the big dishes - are you not worried about the thickness of the glaze? or do you make it rather on the watery side?
    usually when I glaze I have to shave off a little glaze, so it won't become too thick, since it may drip onto the bottom of the oven (is it's on the sides). You do it so freely, I wish I was that confident.

    • @PotterytothePeople
      @PotterytothePeople  Před 2 lety

      So much depends on the glaze itself. This is a super dependable glaze that doesnt run really. Know your glazes and you can always put a “cookie”
      underneath if youre worried about it running.

  • @crunchybeen4263
    @crunchybeen4263 Před 2 lety +2

    Would you ever want to consider adding a foot ring to these? I prefer the irregular line. Both are beautiful though.

    • @PotterytothePeople
      @PotterytothePeople  Před 2 lety +2

      you can definitely add a footring! I would use the mold to support the form while attaching. I find them more functional without the ring though.

    Never sand when is’t bisk!! 🙏 you need to sand before bisk, gently with a dish scrubber. Before bisk, the particules are heavy and less harmfull. After bisk, it can be risky for your lungs

    • @ashd2799
      @ashd2799 Před 7 měsíci +6

      You can sand by wetting the piece and using specific sandpaper that can be used wet or dry. The only thing is you then need to wait until the piece is dry again before glazing.

    • @TheSouthernLights
      @TheSouthernLights Před 5 měsíci

      I sand my bisque pieces and the result is great. I wet the piece and frequently do so as sanding, and use a diamond sander block. Everyone has their own way, as long as it’s safe it’s right.

      She’s setting the pottery directly onto the shelf it looks like and glaze can stick and basically seal to the shelf of the kiln. There are setups you can use though to allow you to glaze the bottom.
      I’m not expert though haha I haven’t taken pottery since I was in college.
