Throwing a big clay pottery vase on a potters wheel quickly demonstration demo how to pot throw

[CedKale]

dan, when i'm collaring my clay tends to twist a bit and you can see ropey bits in it. is it cause i'm using too little water?

[h0munculu5]

@CedKale id also like to know why this happens to me as well...but i use ALOT of water..

[stayBlessed13]

You're a BEAST.. :) smh freakin AWESOME!!!

[rumort4]

do you go back and take the water out of the bottom? What would you use to get the water out with it being that tall?

I love your videos they're the best teacher I've had yet!

[bigjake789]

@ MrJeffsVideos you said "getting into it again" did you mean pottery or selling drug paraphernalia? lol

[MrJeffsVideos]

Became fairly good throwing pottery in high school, even sold some, Bongs mostly, Got kick-out of school for selling paraphernalia. That was over 35 yrs ago & I'm thinking about getting into it again.

@MrJeffsVideos Do it! =D

[MrJeffsVideos]

@SpifySavannah Hey thanks for the encouragement, I need to, Tired of working in these hazardous enviroments.

@MrJeffsVideos You just shun a bright light, not to toot my own horn but im the best potter in my school and kids are asking for bongs, the thought passed my mind to make a quick buck. But now i see the consequences.

[MrJeffsVideos]

@TheDraindeimo Glad I was able to provide some insight.

I noticed how you put a bead on the top part just above the transition plane then later refined the form underneath to meet it. I will try this next time. Good camera angle: your hand positions are visible. Thanks!

[jtdoggage]

Deberias de ser muy feliz.

You should be very happy.

Gracias por escribir algo en castellano, aunque confieso q solo observando las imagenes he avanzado muchisimo en mi trabajo con el torno un abrazo desde venezuela

[schoolbus123]

this is crazy. You are so skilled. If i throw a piece half this size it takes me a few minutes to center it. It takes you a few seconds; and you do everything so fast and perfect.

How long have you been throwing?

[enslaver]

cool, thanks
