Throwing a large shallow bowl

Throwing a large fruit bowl in dark stoneware. This was a new bag and was a lot stiffer than normal, which is why it put up such a fight at the start.

Thank you so much for posting- I enjoy watching your techniques as you throw. Can you tell me the weight of your clay was for this bowl?

[janesoltys]

Thank you for the demo... a little clearer shot of the rib you're using next time? This was helpful.

Lovely to watch! Can you please answer a question for me? I’m quite new to throwing and seem to get smothered with slip up to my elbows and yet you use more water but throw beautifully clean - how?? Many thanks for posting your videos.

Is that a diy splash pan? I have a Shimpo RK Whisper (the heavy wheel with the solid silver base & yellow splash pan with slight shelf that comes apart in two pieces). I’d love a better splash pan with more room to get at scraps without need to take apart so often for full on cleaning with the hose. I don’t have a utility sink yet, just part of a barn for a studio.

How many pounds of clay did you use for this bowl?

I haven't been doing this for long (less than 1 year) but ...f**** me, you're wearing a WHITE T-SHIRT!

I noticed you did not wire the bowl off the bat… I have done that with plates and I have found that by the time they come off the bat, they can often be drying too uneven a rate for my own good. That doesn’t happen with the bowls?

Hope this isn't a silly question but what do you do with all the waste water? I guess you can't just throw it down the drain as it's full of clay residue.

Thanks for doing this video. Much appreciated. How many pounds of clay did you use?

Which model is it? I'm trying to decide between the Elite with SSX Motor upgrade and leg and shaft extensions, or the Steven Hill which comes with the upgrades installed.

What type of clay do you use and how dry is it? I can't actually cone my stoneware clay up as you do without my hands immediately sticking and twisting the clay body.

Hi. When you are pulling your walls what is the position of your hands? is the inside hand higher than the outside hand?

How many pounds of clay did you start with for that bowl? Thank you.

[pavlentos]

Hi! Do you make pieces of batt by your self?

[k.aragao]

What it was the weight on clay you use for the big bowl?
