  • please tell me he slightly fastforwarded this video

  • :20. tricky

  • nice trick blowin in

  • Chris, How much clay did you use for this bottle?

  • That clay looks nice and you really manipulate it quickly. I notice most master potters have the head wobble when they are pulling up a wall. Yours gets really fast towards the top. What are you looking at what do you think makes your head do that instead of just your eyes? Many of teachers do this too but I never thought to ask until now.

  • Now, how do you trim the bottom?

  • Use a chuck, or just hand trim it.

  • That was nice!

  • Beautiful..I loved the little puff to round out the pot.

  • i love it...very nice...smooth and thin at the top....now that i sow it...i am going to have to try it.....i wont get it on the first time....but i will try until i get it....but i have to master the bottle first...i hate makin the bottle.....its hard....but i am getting the hang of it...thanks for the video.....like i said...very nice.....i love it...

  • That clay body looks like it is wonderful for throwing. May I ask what the clay body is?

  • A most enjoyable and educational video. I've mastered (ehem!) slabbing and coiling - throwing is another maatter. Nice to see a "proper job"

  • i love this video, i've watched it maybe 10 times

  • sexy :D

  • so thin......

  • Excellant work! im a sophmore in high school in Art3 and four next semester and have been struggling with bottles a lot. this helps so much! thanks for posting!

  • Raku is so much fun!  You are so skilled on the wheel...I am getting back into throwing after a very long hiatus, so I hope I can eventually throw well.

    Thanks for the video! It is inspiring!

  • Excellent! The best pottery video on youtube.

    It is very very very thin.

    (The clay is wonderful by the way.)

  • Just wonderful and amazing how you do this and so fast...

    And the perfect music for it.

    Looks like you have a lot of fun ... Thanks!

  • I like to see the works of pottery. They are the Masters of Pottery. Great works!

  • Great music and great throwing.

  • Fabulous - I just started throwing pottery a couple of weeks ago and this video is just so inspiring! Music is rather apt too ;)

  • master!!!

  • Please make more videos! Loved the irish music!

  • Fairport Convention are English but they do sound sort of Irish so it's an easy mistake to make.

  • What was the music you used as a background?

  • Group:- Fairport Convention

    Song:- Slip Jigs & Reels

  • thats a nice trick,blowing inside the vase.

  • That was really inspiring to watch. What a beautiful shape! I am going to be participating in a Raku firing soon and I am really excited!
