  • Hello Simon,

    I've watched the jewellery box videos a few times and have gleaned the base is 300 g and the lid is 250 g.

    What are the dimensions? Of the base? and the lid?

    Thank you.

    Regards,

    Sheril

  • I love this. Thank you for sharing your talents!

  • I really like this camera angle because I get to see the close up things you do with your fingers and hand motions.

  • Hi Simon, excellent demonstration, thanks!

    I am always amazed how you are able to keep your upper body so still, whilst kicking the wheel. Looking forward to seeing the fitting stage too.

  • Great Simon, I have been hoping for you to do another video of the boxes. I am definately having a go to make some. The camera angle was really nice too. Thanks! Julia

  • I remember that song, from The Sultans of Swing album - sung rather contemptuously too, I think :) I was reading a book by an American potter where he made these in one closed piece, then cutting a galley into the side with a rounded stick and eventually cutting off the top. Haven't had much luck with that method - I'll try your's tonight!!

  • Lovely!

    That's it! I am making time for the studio tonight!

    (haven't been in there for WAY too long - too much time taken up by going to university)

    I love the way you are OK with the lid having a slight wobble, giving it the freedom to express itself, without forcing it into "perfect" balance, as it were.

    Cheers

  • Hi Simon,

    I loved the sounds of the wheel. It was like sitting at the wheel myself!
