SIMON LEACH - Stages in throwing a bowl 

Thank you for carrying on Leach pottery tradition. I will share your videos with my students. Greetings from up North!

Your videos are absolutely addictive. Returning to wheelthrowing after many years, I find that your tutorials are an indispensable resource. How I ever learned this stuff from photos and diagrams is beyond me. Learning from SL is the only way to go.

You are such an excellent teacher, it inspires me to keep "practicing" and work harder. Thanks immensly!!

These step by step demos are perfect for helping me to visualize what I need to do. Your teaching strategies are excellent. THANKS!!!

Great lesson your throwing style switched in more recent lesson both great help thanks so much you have been really helpful

Your instructions are actually the BEST. So useful for a beginner. I could just hug you! Thank you so much.

As a beginner, I really appreciate you breaking down the technique so well, especially the stages. Thank you!

Simon- Thank you for the "V" tip for the inside of the bowl...it's visually more appealing and looks like a better work flow....I'll try it in the morning! MM ps I'm making stands for the pots I made today, ala Simon.

Hi Simon I am blown away because you have given me so many good tips in this video. I have been coning my clay up and down probably til it's worn out - no wonder it gives me stress! Also, the way you lay out the stages is really helpful. Brilliant as always...

great to see you back at the wheel. love the Shimpo Whisper, it is so much quieter than my old Shimpo. raining here for the past 2 days. ready for some clear weather so pots will dry. thanks again for the videos.

This is an excellent video!! Thank you, Simon

Obrigada!Ainda vou tentar fazer bowl seguindo tua demonstração.valeu!Abraços

Thank you very much. I will keep practicing ;)

Hi simon great to see you back .Having recently posted an video with vocals i now can apreciate how difficult it is to throw and talk at the same time and how easy you make it look... Cudos to you. I`ve attached the video to prove this. It has a couple of tips i find useful.

Thanks for this great video! I'll be trying out your tips at pottery studio tomorrow.

brilliant teaching

you are the best!

muy didactico, sencillo practico,concreto

Hhahaha, this was awesome! Great job!

So useful to have the early steps repeated. Thanks!

Cool!

To give an added dimension to the steps, it would be helpful if you would cut the sample in haff with the cut off string to see the wall shape and thickness of each step.

Hello Simon, I love your videos and have learned so much, thank you. Do you think you could mention the type of clay you are using and the reason for using it?

Thanks, SImon Very useful clip. I think my bowls stopped evolving about stage 4!

Love the two pronged attack!

nice

Hi Simon, So you love us so much you decided to stay, Great. How long are you staying ??? Great to see you back . Best wishes from Debbie in Florida P.S. Did you go home to get your winter coat. . . LOL !!!!!!

I tried to donate but the link did not work, your videos have helped me a lot. Thank you

O.K. Simon I am posting this 2017, I have watched your videos for years. You must forgive me if this offends you. I must make this comment. I am thinking that the camera angel for your demonstrations would be more instructive if it was from above or over your shoulder. The left and right are confusing. It would be more valuable see it from your point of view . Again I am sorry but I think that view would be more helpful for the newbes.

At 4:34 that looks a lot like a specific part of the human anatomy. Just saying lol. Otherwise, great instructional video
