- How I throw plates, without a batt. I don't think bats are needed to throw most things, and I manage to throw all of my plates without bats. Hope this video is helpful!

i liked your video a lot, a breath of fresh air, slow steady forming the base then flipping the edge. Simple plate, beautify formed. I thing ive not made yet but will do it soon. thank you
Thank you so much! I love the process of throwing plates, it's very fun and meditative!
@@NowWhatPotteryWorks im new to pottery, I joined an adult education class, once a week, I love it, it's my happy place, the whole experience is calming and meditative 🧘♀️ even when nothing goes right, last Thursday was one of those days but I'll be back next week to throw again xx
It’s hypnotic watching you turn a mound of clay into that perfectly formed, beautiful plate! ☺️❤️
Thank you Victoria! ❤❤❤

Thank you!
hello! im so glad you posted this video i was wondering how you throw plates on a wheel without a bat and manage to get it off. may i ask on what type of surface you put it on for the drying process?? the wood i am using seems to get black mold when im drying. and i am using a shared studio space so i am not able to go in every day
Hi! I just use some unfinished wood boards. Some potters really like hardiebacker, so the plates don't warp as they dry. Unfortunately mold is such a common problem with drying super slowly on wooden boards. Perhaps you can try making yourself a damp box with a plaster bottom, which will help keep things leather hard, but not as moldy, since plaster seems to resist mold a bit more. Hopefully that helps!
spray a mixture of mostly water and some bleach onto your bats/boards its perfectly fine to do and when you go to trim only a very thin layer of clay will have any bleach on it so if your worried about it getting on your skin if you use a really dilute water solution you should be perfectly fine.
Hi whats that device that looks like a mince grinder and what do you use it for? Pugmill??
Hi! It's a coffee grinder! It doesn't have any secret pottery uses, I just use it to make coffee. My throwing space is right next to my kitchen currently.
@@NowWhatPotteryWorks lol thats awesome
@@MistaBrown420 haha thanks! My throwing space is a little thrown together. But it works!
Isn’t it a pain in the ass to have a non electric pottery wheel and having to use your feet to keep it turning?
Hi! Not for me, I prefer having this kind of control, and since I like to actually throw with the wheel turning slower I'm more able to control exactly how fast the wheel goes. I also like how the wheel slows down as I work automatically, rather than having to adjust it with a pedal. I also like my pots better when I throw them on a kick wheel, I feel like I have more of a connection to the clay.
What she said.
Also, my son has told me more than once, “ mom you throw better on your kick wheel.” He’s right. The automatic slowing happens at just the right times and gives me automatic control of my clay at the right moment. It spins for a really long time. But slows automatically as I pull the clay around. On my electric I don’t slow the wheel always as needed and it affects the end product.
You rock! But your studio is much too clean; I couldn't keep mine that clean to save my life....
Aww thanks! My studio is only this clean because it's part of my kitchen haha!
Why don't you use bats for plates most people just use a bat and let it dry right on the bat it picks right off
I really don't like using them. My wheelhead doesn't have bat pins, and I can make it work if I really want to use a bat, but I don't feel I need to throw my plates. It also saves me money, since enough bats to keep up with the number of things I throw is expensive. Also letting your plate just dry on the bat like that will warp them over time, and this way I don't have to worry about that.
