Sharing My Trimming Secrets
This week's video goes over a handful of my trimming secrets, together with discussing the process of finishing one of these tiny, angular bowls on the potter's wheel. They are tricky objects to turn, especially hollowing out the tall foot-ring, but there's a few things I do to make it easier. I hope you find this video helpful, and as always, thanks SO much for taking your time to watch.

The Most Popular Pots I Make

Miniature jars are the subject of this week's video, from throwing the components, trimming them all to fit, bisque firing them, waxing them, glazing them and finally reduction firing the tiny vessels to 1290ºC. Phew. Hopefully this video, with all its sped-up segments, give you a good idea of all the sheer repetition there is when creating pottery like this. It's all worth it though, as these ...

Using the golden ratio is a great way of scaling pots up and down whilst retaining a beautiful progression in size between them, and that's what I'm doing this week as I make a group of bud vases on the potter's wheel.

How to Pack and Ship Teapots SAFELY

After a week of intense packaging, it only made sense to create a video like this. This time, I'm demonstrating how I wrap my teapots so that they survive their journeys across the globe. There's a kick test... a stand test too, all in order to see how strong the parcel is. This particular box might be a little over-the-top, but as most couriers don't insure ceramics, I can't afford breakage to...

    Hi Florian, I always dry my pots the right way up. I feel like when they are upside down they kind of drag over de wood during shrinkage. I now always dry everything the right way up and of course sometimes have items that warp, but thats most of the times mugs and not the bowls. Thank you for you video! It was a good one, x Robin

    Hi Florian, it could be worth a try to put a single sheet of newspaper under the rim of the pot when you put them to dry upside down at first. The newspaper is flimsy enough to shrink with the clay and to not distort the rim that much. I do find that I put my pots right way up whenever the foot is dry enough because the moist captured air underneath the pot, when it's upside down, keeps the pot from drying (as quick as I would like ;-)).

    Trimming is my favorite part! Love your tip on the marker lines. I also really like when you show glimpses into your studio and cleaning/setting up - not just what you are doing on the wheel. It helps to see how other people set things up and work in their studio. And of course the shots of your pup are the cutest ♥️

    I always dry pieces upside down with the foot up. In my mind it would help the lip not warp. Unless it was something I did during the trimming stage that I failed to correct.

    I really need to spend time learning to tap center. I'm very comfortable with my trimming skills but I would love to be able to attach the pot with slip like you do.

    • @floriangadsby
      @floriangadsby 18 годин тому

      It's worth doing - I really need to make an updated video about learning the process as it's SO helpful, and I've learnt a few things in that time. Ultimately, if the pots you're making are slightly wonky, then it's a process that becomes much harder to master and being able to 'see' when the pot is actually centred is difficult as it'll move and undulate no matter what.
