Impressive! I think this is the largest vase I have every seen thrown as a single piece. I've seen larger vases, but they were thrown in parts and then combined.
@fuzzlefluff When you make bigger stuff and center it really well to begin (because there is a lot of clay) it wants to stay centered if you aren't crazy with it.
i must have a different throwing style than you because i love harder clay, of course, not to a ridiculous length but, i find harder clay easier to throw thinner and taller.
Hi Dan, Nice vase. I have had problems with the hard stoneware too. Sometimes I will heat up a wet towel in a microwave a few minutes. Wrap the clay ball with the towel ,the wet towel heated will help soften that clay
Hi Dan, I enjoy you're videos and I know you're dad is proud of the work you are doing.I will try and make that lidded storage jar soon. Keep up the great work! Harry the Potter
Nice. It may not have turned out "exactly" as you planned, but it looks far better than anything I could ever hope to throw... and I have long arms. lol
I think it looks great! Your videos are fun to watch, no talking, not too long and they get right to the most important parts...I really enjoy watching them!

I am grateful for your posts. I've been working on vases for a while and learned a ton by watching.

Wow if you look at it from a technically stand point you took like 3 inches from around the clay and made it to what a foot and a half to 2 feet?

I agree. though harder clay is often less plastic (and requires alot of rib-compression), it holds its form nicer than softer clay for larger pieces

The clay was much too hard to be trying to make a big pot.
I just couldn't get it narrower at the base.
I just had a go with the last lump of the day which had dried out a bit.
I'll have another go with some softer clay soon and try to throw a really good one.
Cheers,Dan
