Thank you, Scott, for this really interesting demo. I am a hand builder at heart, though I am trying to keep at least a basic ability to throw on the wheel. The vast majority of pottery videos on TH-cam are wheel throwing, as I’m sure you know. So I am particularly pleased to see this whole new direction for hand builders. Bravo! 👍🤓
Thank you! Had help my first night in the studio with slabs and then after that it has been pretty independent. Glad to have new ideas. Setting up my at home studio soon.
Very instructive - a great, creative way of adding interest to slab building. I thought I was going to skip through this long video, but I watched the whole thing
Please can you hold detailed pieces of the processes and texture designs, close to the camera for a few seconds so we on TH-cam can see properly, thanks. Couldn’t see your first mugs for your wedding either, it was moved as soon as you placed it, ‘in shot’. Your work techniques and ideas are soo amazing, incredible, thankyoooooo.
This is a terrific video full of great hand-building ideas. I am a pretty good potter, but this was definitely an educational leg up for me. Would like to see more videos of you at work. Thanks.
With really soft clay, water works fine. For leather-hard pieces, a vinegar slip works best because it does NOT puff out the clay in the slip, so you avoid cracks at joints when drying.
i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid forgot my password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Decker Fletcher thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
This is only loosely related to the vid (even though I DID learn some things to try too!) there's one shot of the clay on a back shelf with what looks like a half dozen Gary bags in one area. Instantly reminded me of Fallout 3 and 'The Gary Vault'. 👍😁
Love the video Scott, great teacher, i love working with clay only about year and a half, i can naturally make stuff by hand, so many uses and ways, thanks for great video, i have done video myself and know it takes time and also editing getting right thanks a lot learned more today, i have watched tons video and your a natural
Hi Scott, thank you for great instructional video... I need a clay mainly to scallop and use it to make mold from, any recommendation? Preferably non hardening, I like the color of your clay. Thank you!
Don't know if you ever found you dotted shelf liner, but ck on Amazon for I seen some there, think Blick or something like that. Yes I know this is 4yrs old sry
You are a great teacher! however, since your video is meant also for viewers that are not your students - you need to show what you did also IN FRONT OF YOU, or to get the camera follow it. Great work.
Hi Scott. The textured drawer liner you mentioned with small dots might be from IKEA. I have something like that in my kitchen drawers, from IKEA’s Variera range.
Whoever was filming this needed to raise the camera. I was unable to see the very top of some of the form he was working on, when he raised it up off the banding wheel, because it was off camera at the top of the visual field.

Exceptionally good instructional video. Your technique is so simple but refined and your commentary so clear and pragmatic. Thank you Scott.
I appreciate your comment that this method suits your personality. An important component to studio attempts. Your pieces are indeed fabulous!
Thanks!!! It makes me want to make them!!!!
Some really sweet little technique tricks. Beautifully presented, as always.

EXCELLENT demonstration, so much useful information, THANK YOU!!!
...I really don't know why this is in my recommendation...but I'll watch regardless. Pretty chill video.
Thank you Scott you video was so very informative, cheers from Downunder
Very nice piece and well demonstrated. Thank you.

Great job learned more than I had anticipated thank you so very much.
A clay "rule breaker", that told me I was going to love this! Thanks for sharing this video!
hobbypotter is great as well ☺️👍✨

Love Scott's work....Thanks OVCAG!
I love how you use simple tools from around the home to create! You give so many great tips, like the pillow case, etc!

@Decker Fletcher it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
@Avi Iker happy to help :D
Thank you Scott. Great video. Great work. You are a natural teacher.
So helpful! Thanks for uploading this :)
for those of us far away, we’d like the pattern, especially those of us that are newbies. Thank you. Sherrill
In the studio where I worked we would shape our vases around different sized packing tubes or pvc pipes.
very articulate . Thank you
Great class!
Such clean slab vessels. Great tips! Thank you!
ualllllll fantastic. I love it. I am from Brasil. You are a good teacher.
omg! handle making perfection!!

Yay for soft slabs!! It’s what I do for a living (plus attaching crazy things to them), and I think they are so neglected!
Great Video!
I am a novice to the pottery world and eager to learn!
Scott, you are a great teacher. Is there any way you can share a few of your patterns?
Romancing the clay! Love it!
Excellent
Thank you Scott for how detailed your information is.
Love the video Scott, great teacher, i love working with clay only about year and a half, i can naturally make stuff by hand, so many uses and ways, thanks for great video, i have done video myself and know it takes time and also editing getting right thanks a lot learned more today, i have watched tons video and your a natural
likewise, I watched the entire video and I usually fast forward or abandon a video out of boredom.
instructive

Really good video, excellent instruction
What is the clay brand?
Don't know if you ever found you dotted shelf liner, but ck on Amazon for I seen some there, think Blick or something like that. Yes I know this is 4yrs old sry
Великолепно!!!!!
Set up a video camera angle in correct position!
I just bought a vortex bowl
Can you share the dimentions of the template for your bowl?
Searching for 1/8in rolling guides. That would be 3/4mm, right? Where can I get some? Could just order some pastry rolling guides from Amazon.
Use dowels!! They are round of course but are an even thickness!!!
Question all the time!
Really enjoying this video. Just want to ask what you use to create your patterns? How long do they last you? Thanks
Gran video, sigo aprendiendo
Scott, what type of surface did you use to roll out the bowl clay pieces? It looks like it has blue painters tape around it.
Rhonda Howle they mention in the video that it's drywall. I thought that was very interesting!
Drywall
You are a great teacher! however, since your video is meant also for viewers that are not your students - you need to show what you did also IN FRONT OF YOU, or to get the camera follow it. Great work.
Re soft slab constructions with Scott P. How many cups of cremations would his last piece hold? 💐
Dommage que la caméra ne soit pas plus mobile !
Hi Scott. The textured drawer liner you mentioned with small dots might be from IKEA. I have something like that in my kitchen drawers, from IKEA’s Variera range.
👐👍💞
An interesting technique. Pity the camera didn’t always follow the action.
Nice how less can be more
Whoever was filming this needed to raise the camera. I was unable to see the very top of some of the form he was working on, when he raised it up off the banding wheel, because it was off camera at the top of the visual field.
You are out of the camera frame often so we can’t see some things.
need a better camera person most of the important transitions camera did not follow and you were off screen.
Your camera man did a poor job. You were outside the view for most of the demonstration.
Much of what you did was not able to see as your hands were out of the video
