Love ur videos Simon. Got so much good information and tips from you, it gave me a bit more confidence in pottery classes. Please could u demo the 'chattering' technique , I'd like to see what tool you use and wheel speed etc. Thanks.
Simon, thank you for showing us how to throw this bowl, I have tried several times on this in the past and have flopped big time. The tips and techniques you gave were very helpful, and I look forward to trying again. one time I succeeded in throwing the bowl, but got a huge s crack in the glaze firing, what causes that and how can we prevent it from happening.
Hello, I love watch any of you videos as they inspire me. I do have a question about the chair, saddle you are sitting on as well as the height of your wheel. I am finding comfort is very important at 72. Thank you Simon.
I hope to come your workshop and learn from you alot but im very far 🙁 I already bought a pottery wheel at home and i use to learn from you alot amd i hope to meet you,but as i said im very far im in egypt but i hope to come live with you prof❤️❤️👏👏👏
Adding a simple wood stop block to the foot control of an electric wheel prevents the wheel from turning too fast. The block can be fine tuned by adding a paper spacer to get rates of one revolution per second when controller is fully pressed. I found it is easy to slow the wheel with the block in place.
Well what you were told is not actually true as you can change the inside, best make sure its well attached to the wheel though. I will demo this shortly.
