    After 44 years of throwing pots, it’s good to finally see a guy really doing it at the end of the video. Great job on the sink tutorial. I just got another commission but it’s been awhile. My dominant hand is my left hand so I probably won’t reverse direction but that’s an interesting approach.

    Always good to see you throwing, I always learn something new from each video. I often recommend your channel to everyone who I think might be interested in your process.

    Love this. Always wanted to throw a sink. Now I know how. Always wanted to crash old/ imperfect pots against a rock or wall. Now will being outside smashing.

    Hmm.. I guess I've been throwing clay all wrong.
    Great video. Nice close ups during business time.

    is that stoneware? and did you wedge a lot before you threw it? i find my clay feels so stiff and takes me a lot longer to get the height.. ?

    Hi. Thank you for teaching mi alot about poterty!
    My dream is to make sinks!
    Did you try the 2" hole after the fiering? Did it mach the tube?

  • @johncastle7058
    @johncastle7058 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Matthew when you use a chisel( great idea by the way) i assume it makes line from center so the hole is 2 inches im i right or totally off base thanks love you work

    About how much will it shrink after the final glaze firing? Awesome sink by the way

  • @clifforddalton3067
    @clifforddalton3067 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you think you could have avoided that wobble that got somewhat more wobbly towards the end by slowing the wheel down? Anyway I'm sure it will survive :)
    Thanks for the demo Matt.

  • @n1ch0las51
    @n1ch0las51 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You obviously know your materials so well that you just know how much the clay will shrink. so the measurements are allowing for shrinkage. I guess the critical dimension is the hole for the drain fittings? if you have 2" now what will the size of the drain be when fired to stoneware temps?

    • @MatthewKellyPottery
      @MatthewKellyPottery  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The hole will end up around 1.75” wide. Most stoneware clay shrinks between 12-14% from wet clay to finished.

      @@MatthewKellyPottery Thanks for the reply yes I thought so. It has taken me a while to get used to this. I use a scale rule and know that the clay I am mostly using Earthstone ES5 actually shrinks by 10 -12% after trialling some pieces I recently made 30 or so egg cups, one for everyone in my family with their name no. they looked huge after throwing and still large after bisc but they came out just the right measurements after glaze firing. it takes some getting used to.

    why do you reverse the wheel for shaping from inside?

    > Me, still trying to understand why you're throwing in reverse for shaping the inside
    "using my dominant hand on the inside really helps"
    Ohhhh... Wait, why don't I have this problem making bowl forms?
    Right... I'm left handed throwing standard counter-clockwise (right-handed)

      I can see your thought dilemma but also how you don’t have to change direction of the wheel. Haha.

    • @MatthewKellyPottery
      @MatthewKellyPottery  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I did think about doing that on the first sink I made several months ago but I knew the shrinkage rate would be slightly different and I am concerned with making sure the hole is the correct size.
