Trying 3 types of air dry clay on the pottery wheel #pottery #potteryforbeginners #potterywheel

Being able to use air dry clay on a pottery wheel is a bonus if you don't have access to a kiln and want to practice your throwing skills. So I tested out 3 different brands of air dry clay to see how well they worked on the potter's wheel. This is what I found out...

This is literally how I'm learning on my wheel. I don't have a kiln but theres a studio near me. I want to practice a lot before I go and spend money on kiln firing.

I like Das for very bulky, simple projects - anything that takes any amount of detail or finesse will just... ultimately fail, in my experience 😂 My favorite use for Das, as a prop master, is to make things that aren't clay look like clay - almost like paper-mache. So if I need a clay mask or a clay pot, instead of having an actual clay object that can break when an actor bumps into it, I will use a cheap plastic object & just cover it with a layer of Das 😉

She's doing the thing all other pro potters are too skeptical to do.
Respect.

I was really questioning the difference between air dry clay and the typical clay you would use since both dry up when being left out, until you said kiln and I quickly remembered that normal clay needs to be fired

I've never tried to make pottery with Das, but I do sculpt and for that I can highly recommend Das. ❤

Amaco is pottery clay!!! They market the same type of clay as air dry!! What they don't mention is how brittle it is if you do let it dry out as if it were air dry. Amaco needs to be fired to be used in any successful clay project

Your voice is soooo soothing ❤ loved the video

I recently saw a video in which they said that Das clay needs to be hidrated before using it, as the long storage causes it to be more dry than intended
Maybe try that?

[WhitRenee]

…..so yeah, I could just listen to your peaceful voice day… seriously. And beautiful creations ma’am ❤🫡😊

I love her voice omg it’s so breathy and simple for her to do ! Love it

[jordanbast]

Thank you so much for this omg I never thought of using air dry clay on a wheel

[DI_Arpita_CY]

I wanted DAS to succeed so bad!! But glad you saved me before I threw it. Thank you. ❤❤

[SteviiLove]

I really, really appreciate this video.
I've been seeing a lot of pottery videos and wanted so badly to get into it but I have no kiln access, so I thought it would never be something I could try.
Seriously, thanks!

i didnt know you could throw air dry clay!!! That's amazing!

[Sadianoorsaba]

I actually want to know that what are those 3 bandage on your finger . [Edit] I love your potteries.

[Brittanyblahblah_]

Thank you for making this, I didn’t even know this was possible. That’s literally my worry about throwing again I done have access to a kiln regularly

[Lil-Ginger]

Can you try it on crayola air dry clay please? 😊

[Emma-exgx]

Thank you for the useful video! You really sound like Lara croft 😮

[KaverRSACAD]

Wait can you try the dollar tree air dry clay or is it the same as the last type of clay in the vid?

I don't have a wheel but I've used dust before and it always sticks to my hands something awful I can't get it to behave I'm going to have to try the other air-dry Clays cuz I'm always looking for something but there's a clay I like to use is called Premiere have you ever worked with it
