  • Hi Simon,

    As this is to hold liquid, do you glaze the inside, or is the clay fried so it os not porous?

    Thanks.

  • Hi -

    glazed on the inside yes ! ...but this is vitrified 1300 C , so its pretty much impervious anyway . I answer this from UK , now 5 am !!! ,drinking a tea & listening to the dawn chorus of birds in the garden...another day in begins ! Regards SL

  • Simon, How much clay do you actually move when you make a pull? I think I try to get my height with to few pulls then my walls are thin and it falls apart. Any suggestions??

    Thanks, Debbie in Florida, USA

  • Hi D - how much to pull ? well I reckon to pull up in 3-4 pulls approx.I think thats much the same even if it s a smaller piece.You may notice when I start a pull I press in from the outside with my fingers to create a step in the wall,this assists me in the lift -try it ! SL

  • realy good thanks for all please tell me how i can make my own machine like yours

  • Hola Juan Pablo

    Porfavor mandame su correo electronico y luego mi voy a mandar los planes y photos de mi torno de 'Leach'.

    Un saludo de un ingles en españa ...SL
