Very nice 👍 thnx for the lesson and I love your accent too! I’m going to try making this large pot! 🌸

Aah Thank you! Glad you like my accent :) It’s probably a mix of school English ( close to British) and American TV shows, films etc. Cheers from a sunny beautiful Finland!

The absolute BEST large pinch pot video!!! I love doing pinch pots but had difficulty getting large ones done 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank you for all these helpful tips!

Ooh Thank you Joanne! I will make an even bigger pinch pot later on and post it on my channel. Good luck pinching, I’m sure your pots get larger and larger! Cheers from a sunny but cold Finland ☀️☀️☀️

this was the first youtube video I found of you and it is what made me go and look to see if you had made more. Handbuilding and wheel work are my pleasures in clay. I hope you don't mind but in English, the act of kneading the clay is necessary of course but the word, kneading, is pronounced - need-ing. It is a silent K. just like in the word - know for example: -- I know that you love clay. KNow is pronounced as 'no', silent k. :-) We call the pinching pot a pinch pot and I'm afraid I would like to be better at it especially with shapes I really want to achieve so I'm off to watch your tutorial now in the hope I might get more tips. Thank you so much for being here. You are most kind and generous. L

Hey there! And thank you! I don’t mind you correcting me, I’m happy that you do! I nowadays use wedge instead of knedding, I wasn’t sure about the pronounsiation and if it is the right word. I would be glad if you tell me more, if you find something else that gives the whole plot a wrong meaning or if I use wrong expressions etc. Thanks also for the Pinch pot, I know I’ve used Pinching pot in many, many videos. I have to remember that! If you learn more than you forget, you grow wiser! Thank you Linda! Hope to see more of you! Cheers! Mika in Finland

Wow! I always thought you could only make small pinch pots and then switch to coils to make a larger pot. Now I can’t wait to try this method. Thanks! (And greetings from the high desert of New Mexico, USA!

Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes, you can actually make even greater pinch pots than this. A turntable is good to have in that case. Cheers from a rainy Finland! /Mika

Wow! Thank youbfor sharing! I began learning wheel throwing last year but now I'm curious about hand building. Its exciting to see all the unique things hand building can achieve.

@clayeasy 7 месяцев назад

Thank you Antonea! Yes, the sky is the limit! Hand building is soo fun and relaxing. many times when I make something, I start with a pinching pot and after that I figure out what it will be. Cheers from a cold snowy Finland! Mika

@clayeasy Год назад

Yes I know, Kristie.. I haven’t glazed it , still thinking about the options.. Sorry for that.. Cheers /Mika

@loveandlight4875 Год назад

You should have put the camera on a piece so we can see what you’re doing when you’re pinching inside the ball. Instead of your face.

@clayeasy Год назад

Yeah, Sorry about that! Sometimes the right angle is hard to find. Thank you for your comment, I’ll try not to do the same misstake again. Cheers! Mika

Ooh thank you so much! I’m from Finland but I speak Swedish most of the time. The Swedish accent we use here on the westcoast of Finland is different from the Swedish they speak in Sweden. My English is a broken English, probably mixed with both UK English and American English. Where do you come from,Sunset-ee? Lovely that you found my video! ❤️
