Sherbrooke Village is a living history museum in Nova Scotia. They have a real blacksmith, an old fashioned printing press, a working water-powered sawmill, a potter, and a variety of other things, where all the people dress as people would over 100 years ago. See http://museum.gov.ns.ca/sv/index.php for more information.

The potter decided he wasn't quite happy with what he had done while I filmed, so shortly after the end of this clip, he crumpled up the clay to restart.

(He is sitting over a large heavy wheel that he powers himself to keep the clay wheel rotating--apparently it takes quite awhile to learn how to balance comfortably there).
