I keep coming back to this over the years, and the precision and style blow me away every time.

I am addicted to pottery videos...

imagine how long it took him to get to that master level. impressive

I could watch this all day .. amazing cheaper than therapy!

I love how precise and perfect you want to make everything you make. We all learn so much from you.

Wow, thanks. This was the best throwing, trimming and camera presentation I have found on youtube yet.

@nottonite My secret is using the slip remove from my hand and coat it back onto the pot instead of water. Slip doesn't run but water does.

As always, so impressive. I cannot believe the ease with which you pull work off of the hump. It's apparently something I am incapable of doing without disfiguring the pot miserably. I've surrounded my life with bats! The unfortunate part is that centering and maintaining center while working small amounts of clay is such a bear for me, so throwing smaller pots (1 lb or less), is so attractive to do off of the hump. :o/

Now, I have more ideas on what to make next week during my class! The BUZZING sound is so soothing on a Sunday watching you throw pots!

That is funny. When I pulled down the details of this video there was a prompt to visit the etsy shop. What are the chances, I randomly found this etsy shop a year ago and had bought a mug. It is an excellent well crafted fantastic mug. The glaze fit, the attention to detail and flawless execution is evident in this mug. This guy is a really good potter, I hope he continues sharing his skill with the world.

Beautiful attention to detail, the never ending search for balance and the perfect form. A true craftsman and skilled artisan. Love the trimming tools and use if the burnishing stone

Hi mr. Lin, this is absolutely awesome video !! I am learning a lot more from your videos than from my ceramic class. I saved most of your videos in my file as my text book. I bought your trimming tools and the round wooden rib but still struggling to learn how to use them. But...someday I'll master it. Thanks to you !!

I took a pottery class in high school. It was just an hour of me going "oh yes, oh yeah, shape that bowl, scrape that thing!" I enjoyed myself a little bit too much I think.

Beautiful piece

Those satisfying ribbons of clay!

Outstanding!! Porcelain is really fine to throw - love the texture.

Thank you for the closeups of the lids, both throwing and trimming. Very helpful! I hope you will show the finished pot in a future video.

Amazing craftsmanship. You are a true master of your craft. Then you for uploading.

its funny how pottery vids are so satisfying to watch haha

Somewhere in the world, a thumbs down must be a gesture of admiration.

This is really fun and calming to watch! I could watch it all day♡

You are just the best. Every single thing you make is so beautiful and neat. Thanks for your generosity in sharing your skills like this

I still can't work out how he turns the clay without "soaking" with water like all the other vids !! Amazing

Can't argue with the final results!

Hsin-Chuen Lin, thank you for your videos. I have learned so much!

I am learning so much from you!!! Thank you for all you do! :)

That was insane! Entirely enchanting!

So wonderful to watch, and learn. Such a master at the wheel 😍

10/10 would put cookies in

SPLOID brought me here, great work!

Wonderful work, thank you

PRETTY!

Speak about perfection

Love how you made texture with the stone

Good job woaw ! compliments for your turning !

Beautiful work of artistry!

Beautiful.

This is so awesome. Congratulations Hsin-Chuen Lin.

Wow ! someone who can trim without having wet clay to hold the pot down is a pro. lol

太漂亮了，这就是工匝精神。

@goforkt Hi, if the pots aren't too big, I throw most of them off the hump. There is nothing to do with easy lift or remove from the wheel. It my personal preference and the way I had been taught.

Absolutely mesmerizing... This is some amazing work!

Beautiful work!

I loved every second of it. I will watch any you have! :D

thanks for including 2 different lid styles

Beautiful craftsmanship

Wow.... THAT is art!!!

this jar is so beautifully thrown :)

This video was very entertaining and showed a lot

Wonderful work! Congratulations!

Videography exquisite.

@slurpeejerky711 The porcelain is at the perfect stage. The reason why the choppy trimming is cause by the uneven surface. The very first cut usually needs to go a little deeper to level the surface. I used to throw cone 7 stoneware in Taiwan.

Thank you for such wonderful tutorials. How do you trim a very small piece foot with a weak rim or thinner rim that could crack,? There are foam bats out there. I am teaching a very rudimentary class at a community art center what knowledge I know but I am no master so I find myself teaching what I need to learn. I am helping the center out of a jam because the experienced teacher moved after being the teacher for say twenty years. I think putting a wet clay under the rim if the piece is dryer would be best leveling the piece. then trimming. people want instant results out of frustration

very impressive..

Magic !

神技.........真是太厲害了

This is hypnotizing

Very nice

Que perfeição teu trabalho.adore muito lindo.

Absolutely fascinating works!!!

Brilliant.

Pottery is a beauty

you got skills man

I absolutely loved watching you make this pot and the lids. How did you make your trim tool? I would love to have a trim tool like that. The way you applied the texture is amazing. Nice work!

Nice to see someone that still trims the bottoms! What is the type of clay you use in this video?

That's talent!

it makes me calm

Brilliant. Thank you for sharing.

Excelent!!!!

wow cool

very beautiful

wow that was amazing job😊

Great

Very good Excellent

Do you throw really dry or are you time lapsing the video? awesome technique

What are you listening for when you tap the base of pot while turning….eg re depth

Can you show a video how to diy the jar in a lined three colors?

Its any secret or reason why you didn't show it after fired?

stunning

You seem to trim a lot of clay, can this be recycled? Loved the video!

wow, wow and more wow

Beautiful! Great job! Was it glazed? I wonder what the finished piece looked like

EXCELENTE .AMIG@.. GRACIAS.

amazing!! thank you

of course nice your skill,what is the difference to make it with a cnc? I mean, too many instruments,its an industrial way.

Lindo! Parabéns!!!

Beautifuuul.Perfect!

good

Ive never thrown with porcelain so i have a somewhat odd question... it seemed as though you can trim porcelain at a dryer state then you could stoneware brown or white clay.. am i right? the consistency of porcelain looks a lot smoother then stoneware/ earthenware.... is that only because of the grog?

Thank you so much for sharing your pottery skills. :) May I ask how you kept the pot on the wheel without any clay while trimming?

Beautifull, thanks

awesoome !!

Em caruaru pernambuco também faz essa arte

The stone you use for final burnishing is that a piece of quartz or citrine? Just wondering.

Wow

AMAZING

@js74858 No, I didn't do anything special to dry the lid.

Bravo!

i am currently taking my third year of pottery and i kinda suck at throwing but i want to get better when it comes to throwing a small soup sized bowl do you have any tips for me
