[therealdjanvrin]

The first time I viewed, I didn't notice your dad had lost his right hand! He is remarkably skilled.

[paul8246]

@therealdjanvrin it cause lose his right hand in bad accident from firework blow up

[zem1956]

wow a master potter

[TdblGrr]

2 pulls and it's a mug. I'm so jealous! I think I over think it. Thus I'm not consistent with my pots. Your vids are really well done and helpful. Thanks for posting them!

[mobiustangent]

bout the only thing I got down is pulling a handle.

[potterylady1]

WOW lol. That was awesome!!!!



[GoBeArS939]

how are you getting that blue glazed final product, is that all slip oxide? or a differend oxide over a Glaze??? PLEASE RESPOND! i love ur videos, both of you are so talented, im a junior in highschool and am hoping to becomse as talented as you are.

[Jeudaos]

not only is he extremely skilled. but he's amazinly effecient as well. I'm in ceramics one and I'm in a wheelchair. This stuff can be tricky

[DubGongTuff]

Do you guys have throw offs?

[gerbilstars]

When you and your dad attach handles, is that slip you paint on there first?

[AsiaMahon]

I just started throwing and this gave me great conviction. I didn't even realize a hand was missing until the pulling handles part...inspiring. Thank you

[jkt94604]

hey dan just wondering why doesn't your dad slip score smooth? he just sticks it on,

[rumort4]

Totally Awesome!!!! I want to move to England and work for you guys.

[grat18]

I'm sorry to say there Dan but your dad is quite better then you. But i'm just going out on a limb here but I would say he has some more experience then you?

P.S. Still sublime dan

[jmg1957]

[Cherry10Blossoms]

You are amazing!!! It takes me 20 mins to pull one handle..lol

[blackhawk5112]

[danworry]

What a stud!! That is awesome. My wife has just started taking pottery lessons and I may do the same (specially after watching these videos of yours)

I've subscribed to your channel, you guys do some amazing stuff Dan

[troolee]

Wow! Beautiful job! Thanks so much for this. It's a great reference tool!

[Kranatonos]

[EYCEthebest003]

[EYCEthebest003]

@EYCEthebest003 and with only ONE HAND, wow

[TheLoveBunny87]

WOW, this guy is awesome, he still throws with one hand. Badass.

[jmreds4evr]

truly inspiring

great vid

[brookfieldpottery]

What fantastic throwing. I've not been so impressed since I first saw the Isaac Button films. Just lovely efficient technique.

[MarksPottery]

Very inspiring and great workmanship. Thank you for sharing and showing me how to do it and do it better.

[alitajful]

wonderful job DAD!

[jennypok]

Dan, I am waiting with baited breath for the next clip. I have watched many throwers over the last years and since watching you my throwing has improved tenfold. your bat system is brilliant it works bril

[jennypok]

thanks Dan just found your site two days ago and have learned so much. when out after watching and throw me first set of large one piece pots I did not think I could throw pots that size in one go. thanks for all your help

[TheLyricalRAP]

I like the color combination that you chose for the mugs.

You and your pops are good artists.

[tumalofalls]

I had to do a double-take. Utterly amazing & truly inspirational. Your father is very talented. The apple does not fall far from the tree, does it Dan? It just goes to show that if you truly love to do something and are passionate about it, there are no limitations whatsoever. You can realize your dreams. Thank you for sharing! ~ tumalofalls

[MamereClaire]

You have distilled pottery down to it's bare essenence, no tools, no leather , nothing to complicate the process. Thanks for sharing your craft with us.

Claire

[clearvision5]

Exactly what I was thinking!

[kroraven]

Very cool! The first time I saw your father was when he did the goblet video. It's easy to see where you get your talent ! ;-) Thanks ~ Karen

[swambui3]

this is amazing

i cried

[youdanxxx]

Why did you cry ?

[swambui3]

because he is so inspirational

this video tells people that u can do it

he inspires you to keep on making pottery

my pottery is pretty bad

but i try

my problem is pulling the pottery up once i center it

[clearvision5]

It's that point you get to when you've tried to frustration and think, "there is no way..." then you see someone else it so effortlessly and think, "they must have been frustrated at some point like me, now look at them go!"

I need growth making handles, watching him do it gave me an "ah ha!" moment, now I think I get it :)

[ceiliog]

Brilliant. Great looking mugs too. Panache!

[pillsburydo]

Amazing!

[skycub99]

i wish i had something in common with my dad... especially something artistic. you are lucky!!

Did he teach you to do ceramics as a kid? Because that would be so cool. jealous... : )

[WoWeAtWoW]

WOW!! I've never seen it look so easy. It takes me forever to pull a handle and he can make so many that look alike all mine are either so long or really short. Envious,

[clearvision5]

Very cool! Much respect and awe coming from the US :) So quick and talented!

[joealanouf]

wild

[SuburbanH3LL]

I'm curious, how did your dad lose his hand?

[hayharut]

wow hes very skilled! im amazed! O.o

[ratmfan105]

these are some sweet mugs, man thats cool you guys got the family throwing

[pensandcalls]

Wow, he makes pulling handles look way too easy!!! Truly inspiring. I had a friend who lost all his fingers on both hands and he gave inspirational speeches to usually grade school kids and at the end of his lecture, he would hold his hands up and say 'And kids, don't chew your fingernails!!!!' :o) They would all just drop their jaws and stare at him. He was truly a great man.

[DirtKickerStudio]

Nice work Dad!!!

[adlesk54]

Truly amazing! I enjoy your videos very much. watching you, and now your Dad is so inspiring!

regards,

Sue.

[0emk1]

Not hard to see where you got your technique to pull up the clay :-). You're lucky to have had an obviously great mentor. Best, Ed

[shawnjvl]

Wow your Dad is amazing. Thanks again Dan for your videos. Keep up the good work

[animallover4444]

AMAZING!!!!

[MatthewDLG]

Oh wow, your father doesnt havae a hand! Does this help him make pottery? or is it more difficult for him?
