  • So right about the sponge thing at 3:55!

  • This was 4 pounds of clay .

  • The rib used to make a compressed line can be industrial and dead in nature and takes years to master breathing life into the finished pot . Subtext in the ribbed line is helped by how the internal hand is used as a pivot for the architectural command given. So a straight line with the internal command of a dome will make the straight line open up and breath . The rib used correctly is like an architectural command amplifier . All the best , Guy

  • Im no good with card tricks!! Al the best , Guy

  • wow !

    that was like watching a magic act

    which was harder to learn ?

    this,or the banjo ?

  • Simon, would love it if you'd venture to one of the wonderful museums you are now near, (armed with camera and permission), and will talk about some of the historic pots on display, with your commentary. (Robin Hopper talks a lot about historic pots in his books, but it would be so wonderful if there were videos with commentary!)

    I was taught to throw with a sponge, have tried not using it whilst throwing, and I prefer using the sponge. To each his/her own preference, I suppose! Best, Owen

  • Can you elaborate a little on what you saying about the using a wider rib? I didn't quite understand what you were talking about.

    Thanks,

    James

  • kool.................

  • What a wonderful surprise having Simon stop by. We always have such a good time together . I hope a ton of people are coming to his great classes in New York state ! The point I was making when the leaf blower started was how much I like how Simon finds the line of his pots really in his hands with little need for a rib. More below . Guy

  • Excellent work, very didactic, hurts that in Spanish not axistan videoes of this quality Regards from Venezuela
