I love how you are always answering your followers, and also links to certain vids regarding their questions! ❤😊 Thank you so much for sharing your talents thoughts and techniques! You are one in a million.
Great video! Thank you for doing this review! It was interesting to see how air dry clays perform on the wheel. I have worked with air dry clays for quite some time but for handbuilding only. I found StoneX being easy to work with but very brittle after drying. Activa works well for handbuilding and DAS suitable for small projects only. My favorite air dry clay is Laguna Mexo self-hardening clay. It works very well for large projects, easy to work with, and strong after drying. Would be interesting to see how it performs on the wheel. Maybe you can include it in your next review.
What a fantastic comparison/demonstration. This showed your superb pottery skills, as well as the providing useful information about the different clays. Well done, keep up the good work!
What beautiful pots you created . I wish mine were just as beautiful lol . I’m still learning thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge you are very kind ❤
I'm really enjoying your videos as I've just taken a beginner wheel throwing class and then following up with you helps me learn the new language of wheel throwing.
Thank you Janet 😍 glad to help you on your wonderful pottery journey. It is such a great art form with limitless possibilities of creating beautiful unique pieces of functional or unfunctional art. 😊
Thank you 🙏 great teaching. Have seen somewhere that it’s better to use slip-water made with the porcelain clay instead of using only pure water. Maybe the same is good for air-dry clay too ? Slip-water made with the air-dry clay. More strength in the clay when working with it …
What a great comparison! So I know if I want to throw air-dry with the grandkids I know what to use! Have used oven dry for projects for school when my kids were growing up. So suggestions I have tried throwing from the hump and only been mildly successful. I plan on trying more this weekend. I am also going to be doing Halloween decorations and then Christmas decorations. My husband is a huge Christmas person. And then Thanksgiving is in the middle :-).
@@PotteryCrafters I went back and read my comment and I confused myself lol. I was making suggestions of some videos for you. I am trying some things but other than pumpkins (rudimentary), gnomes, and maybe slab ghosts I have no idea how to make things Holliday themed
Good to know about these brands for air clay. Because these clays are not really waterproof, does that mean they can not be applied into the Bisguet fire and later the glaze kiln process?
That is a very good and important question. You are right air dry clay can not be used in the kiln or glaze fired. All you can do with this clay is paint it and use a sealer. Air dry clay is used if you don't have access to a kiln and for decorative purposes only. 😊
A felllow potter told me to avoid cross contamination between air dry clay and stoneware because if you accidentally mix them, when you fire the stoneware, it can explode in the kiln? Please advise.
great video. love the information you are willing to give us all. I am new to all of this. What are the pads you are using to throw on? they are the little square green pads?
Good question. it is great for hand building also. The Stonex feels and behaves just like clay because it is mainly clay with an added ingredient to be stronger when air dried. The only difference is the smell of the clay from the added ingredient.
Thank you. Good question. You can't glaze this clay because it can't go in the kiln. So you can paint it with any paint and a clear sealant if you like 😊 Here is a link for a gloss sealer geni.us/ql9Ufp
Excellent video, very clear and informative. And it’s a pleasure to hear your calm voice. I’ve recently began experimenting air dry clay and am enjoying it. However I am yet to find a surface to which the clay doesn’t stick when removing. Would you please recommend any? Thank you in advance!
Thank you Helena. Since I found that Air Dry Clay is very similar to clay. I think this post will help. Here is the link for you potterycrafters.com/best-surfaces-for-hand-building/
@@PotteryCrafters thank you for responding and for the link. Of all options the one I started with was wood and it was quite frustrating. I then tried fabric which worked quite well although it’s tricky as it is always moving. Will try some of the list you shared and see how they work. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Hi Maryam. Good question. Air dry clay is used when you don't have a kiln yet and want to make some things with clay. It will dry on its own, but you keep in mind that it is not food safe and you will have to acrylic paint to decorate with. 😊
thank you so much .. your channel like whole school for me♥️ i am beginner .. so can i use air dry clay (like this type in your video) for making a candle jar ?? like i will pour the melted raw wax inside it .. it will be hold on against the heat ?? if no .. how i can make it heat proof + water proof?
Thank you, Mariam. 😊 Air dry clay can be used for decorative purposes. You can paint it and seal it but it won't be totaly waterproof. You can make candle hoders but you need to use an insert to protect the air dry clay.
Hi, your videos are very easy to understand! In some other videos I heard air dry clays are pretty weak material. Do you think the winner air dry clay product would work to make plant pots? New to throwing clay and no kiln so trying to get all my bearings first
Hi Claudia. Welcome to the wonderful world of crafting pottery. Yes, you are right. Air Dry Clay is weaker. If you are going to use the Stonex for a planter, I would try a sealant like Mod Podge here is the link for you to check out geni.us/ql9Ufp 😊
Thank you. That is a great and important question. You can paint and seal the stoneX clay with a sealant but it is NOT food safe. Here is a link to paint you can use geni.us/4ExvbxP and the sealant geni.us/ObIgAX
I love your videos! I think there is something wrong with my air dry clay. It is very damp and it is just about impossible to knead. The clay sticks to everything and I find it impossible to wedge as it just sticks to my hands. It is like pastry that needs a little more flour! When you take your clay out of its packet you seem to get very little on your hands, my hands are covered and it is so difficult to centre too. Any advice would be gratefully received
Thank you Lynda 😊 I don't know what brand you are using. It really shouldn't be like that. The three brands that I have used were not like that at all. I would suggest letting it dry out a bit and keeping a close eye on it so it doesn't dry out too much. Then try wedging it. otherwise I would suggest getting the Amaco Stonex. It really works well on the wheel. Here is the link for Stonex if you want to check it out. geni.us/0mLDVtf
@@PotteryCrafters thanks so much for your reply! I read the reviews of this clay (I am in the UK so I think the names of the clay are different here), after I had purchased it! I have only just got my wheel (a Christmas present from one of my sons) so know nothing about clay. I am getting a refund for the GlowHouse clay I bought and am now looking for an equivalent of what you use. I can find the Amaco Stonex and I think I should try that, although it is very expensive compared to the clay that I bought! The Stonex will take a month for delivery, do you know of any clay I can find in the UK which would be an equivalent, I dont want to wait a month :)
I just received your comment. It took over a month. 😀 A bunch of them just came through from over a month ago. Hope you found something close to stonex to use on the wheel. let me know. 😊
I have a question can we glaze with a brush? Some people used tapes, what would be the best tape for glazing and can you fire with tape or should we removed before. Thank you I am just a beginner with a lot of questions.
Hi Adriana, welcome to Pottery Crafters 😍 Very good question. These are air dry clays that you would use if don't have a kiln yet. You can paint them with paint and sealent not glaze. If you like to know more about tape glazing this video my help here is the link th-cam.com/video/KzdwlAL7A8E/w-d-xo.html
Hello, have you tried cold clay on the wheel? The one that can be baked in the oven? I found online for example the porcelain I would like to try on my new mini wheel, I am trying to figure it out what is best option since I do have a kiln near that charge 4 pounds for 1kg of fired pieces , but I don't know how could I deal with miniatures pieces 😅 so it would be great finding a way that I can do it at home and still end up with a long lasting piece, that doesn't break easily.
Good question Cris. I wouldn't recommend cold clay for the wheel here is a post that will help explain the differences potterycrafters.com/can-air-dry-clay-be-used-on-a-pottery-wheel/ Unfortunately you can't get the strength without a kiln. But you can make some cool things, paint them and apply a sealant. Enjoy your new wheel and the art of crafting clay 😍
I'm taking pottery classes and will have access to a kiln but when I get my wheel I'm going to buy some air dry clay just for something interesting to play with. 😊
Great video! This is one of many ways for beginner to try wheel throwing without need to use a kiln. But one question, did air dry clay can be recycle like a real clay if there are left balance after throwing?
@@PotteryCrafters thanks so much for the prompt response! I did add some water and it helped a bunch. I think I also expected the consistency to be thinner, and I only used a half pound. I suppose it might be better to edge more dough and then cut what you need for the project, instead of trying to edge exactly what you need? This was my first time using a wheel, it came out horrible 😂. Again, thanks so much for the help, I really appreciate it.
You are most welcome. The first time I threw on the wheel it turned out horrible too, but I still fell in love with throwing. Centering was the hardest for me. Stick with it Jimmy! 😊
I love this channel it has helped me so much as I've started out with ceramicss. Kind of unrelated to this one video but could you do a video on how to dip clear glaze on underglaze. I've been struggling to get the dipped layer to not crack and fall off my pots! (They haven't got any oils or anything making them separate)
Great suggestion Ellie. I have not done a dipping clear glaze on the underglaze video yet. But I have done a few brushing clear glaze on underglaze. Here is a link to my bubble glaze one. I put clear glaze on after I bubble glaze. Here is the link for youth-cam.com/video/6ly8kDDX2Ww/w-d-xo.html hope this helps 😍
@@PotteryCrafters Thank you. Actually I went ahead and tried it, and it worked really well. Now I have a bowl and a vase I really like, but I wish I had used my studio clay that can be fired. Have you found a fixative that is waterproof so I can put water in the vase? I have Mod Podge and water based polyurethane, neither of which resist water.
@@PotteryCrafters Thank you! Your channel is so helpful. I bought the Speedball Artista, partly because of your favorable review, and it has been fantastic! Just started throwing at the end of Feb, and have made so much progress having my own wheel at home.
Good question Shailynn. Wedge it on a wood or nonstick porous surface. You can also let it sit out until some water evaporates from it. If you can't keep an eye on your clay, place it in a plastic bag. 😊
Will amaco stomex crack after drying? Ince its thrown on wheel , many people using it for sculpting complain that it is cracked once hand sculpted plx reply thanka
That is a very good question. I have never sculpted with it. Only thrown on the wheel. I wedged it well and compressed the clay. I never painted or sealed it. I still have it and it never cracked. I hope this helped you decide which clay is best for you. 😊
Bonjour Silvia L'argile séchée à l'air n'est pas cuite, elle est donc plus résistante que l'argile. Vous pouvez le peindre avec des peintures acryliques. Je n'ai pas de peintures acryliques parce que je montrais seulement comment jeter de l'argile séchée à l'air sur le tour de potier.
Volevo chiederti anche un'altra cosa... l'argilla che asciuga all'aria si può poi cuocere a basse temperature? O non ha senso? Scusa ma inizio da poco e non ho esperienza
Very good question Kim. 😊 Air dry clay does not go in the kiln. It is not waterproof or food safe. It is mainly for people that don't have a kiln but would still like to mold things with clay, like decorative pieces. You can then paint them and seal them with a sealant to make them waterproof.

Bonjour Silvia
L'argile séchée à l'air n'est pas cuite, elle est donc plus résistante que l'argile. Vous pouvez le peindre avec des peintures acryliques. Je n'ai pas de peintures acryliques parce que je montrais seulement comment jeter de l'argile séchée à l'air sur le tour de potier.
Grazie della risposta ❤️
CIAO Silvia
Mi spiace di aver risposto in francese.
L'argilla non si è rotta su tutte e 3 le argille essiccate all'aria.
Non ti preoccupare ho capito anche se in francese
Volevo chiederti anche un'altra cosa... l'argilla che asciuga all'aria si può poi cuocere a basse temperature? O non ha senso?
Scusa ma inizio da poco e non ho esperienza
What is air dry clay compared to clay? Confusing.... 🤔
Very good question Kim. 😊 Air dry clay does not go in the kiln. It is not waterproof or food safe. It is mainly for people that don't have a kiln but would still like to mold things with clay, like decorative pieces. You can then paint them and seal them with a sealant to make them waterproof.
The reason why das air dry clay broke because it’s a paper based clay and earth based clays do good on the pottery wheel
Yes! Thank you so much for sharing. 😊

@@PotteryCraftersI have to tell you something uttpcameraman used to be innocent but right now he’s everywhere commenting bad words like this ( who cares the channels content sucks) and this. ( first warning + my content is way better + this channel sucks) I hope he doesn’t start doing it on you
I absolutely 💯 % #love this episode. #NewSubHere I needed to know because I was gifted @Amacoclays for my @potterywheel #Thankyouforsharing #Keepupthegreatwork
That is great. I still have the pot I made with stonex clay. I think it is durable for air dry clay. Just make sure you clean your wheel real well if you use kiln fired pottery clay.
