I'm watching this again because I believe that this is something I would like to learn and seems like with time and experience I might be capable of eventually creating a unique and beautiful pot...I first have to find someone with a kiln or the journey would not be fulfilled...Thanks for inspiration Izabela...
@n8tyler thank you! You could make this easiely. very simple pot, I have a mini Alberta spruce forest in there now, it's one of my favourite compositions
Hi just seen your video on making a large oval bonsai pot that looks fantastic what clay do you use and Do you need to put it in a kiln I would love to make one but don’t have a kiln Kind regards David from England
@davidhughes4020 hi David, in my video description you can read what clay I used, it's cone 6 stoneware, it does need to be fired. If you don't have a kiln you can look for a place to fire it for you, local community club or private places. Look up kiln space for rent, there's a website that shows local places, good luck!
Wonderful work. I have one doubt: can we use a terracotta pot for planting without firing? I made one by myself but don't have access to a kiln. Can I use it for planting if I prime the air-dried terracotta pot with GESSO and paint some acrylic on it?
@HarusaiBonsai good question: what kind of clay did you use? If the clay is meant for firing- stoneware or earthenware, then I don't think it would hold itself even with acrylic paint because the water will seep into it and simply soften it back again. But if you used some sort of air dry clay, than I'm not sure, as I never worked with them, but perhaps you have some chance? If you'd like to fire it, search for local workshops, pottery stores, community groups and see if anyone can fire it for you. I believe there's a website where you can search for kilns to rent: kilnshare or something like that
@@gaeangardensbyizabela Thank you so much for reading my query and clearing my doubts. I used earthenware clay. This means I must fire it. I will search for a kiln in my locality. Once again, thank you.
@HarusaiBonsai you're very welcome, hope you find it and let me know how it goes. It's well worth firing it and having a great pot since you have made it yourself
Hello, thank you for your question. I included some information about my vidoe titled Firing 16 cubic feet kiln, free to check it out. I haven't done any glazing tutorials yet, apart from one video about different glazing techniques
Hello, and thank you for your question. This is black clay. Please see the description - i have the details and a link there. Blue clay would be quite cool!
I really enjoyed the video an the music!! Such a nice pot!
Thank you for watching Nigel, I made it for the black spruce forest I got from you, it will be fun to pot the trees

Thank you for watching! So nice to hear from South Africa, wow!
Wow, I love this pot! 😍 Can’t wait to see the final result! 👍
Thank you Jay, I'm doing bisque firing this weekend and glaze firing a week after, I'll share the results when it's ready
Thank you for your reply

Well done !
Thank you for watching and your encouragement
Beautiful.
Thank you for your kind words
Never realized the time and labor it takes to make a handmade pot. Great video. Your husband adds the muscle. Cool.
Yes, it takes few days for me to make it usually, and than there's 2 firings and glazing. By the time it's finished it's long awaited for sure!
The tool! Great idea!
great work! i hope u can make a video on the process of firing it.
Can you move to the UK? 😂😂😂

@@gaeangardensbyizabela Yes, that's true. I will definitely share the update on it. Thank you.
Good work. But what about glazing and heating ??

@@gaeangardensbyizabela Thanks for your kind explanations. Will surely check that video 🌹🙏
@mehranashkanian2747 you're welcome, generally I do more videos about building and this pot was unglazed, so just fired as is. Enj🌹
After this you are going to bake it.....Right?
Yes, I added some oxides and it will be fired this Sunday
Is that clay blue?
Hello, and thank you for your question. This is black clay. Please see the description - i have the details and a link there. Blue clay would be quite cool!
Hi
What is slip made of
Slip is just clay with more water, mixed to the consistency of a cream
@@gaeangardensbyizabela thanks
Which meterial
Hi Rongson Bonsai, are you asking what material I used for the pot making? It was a black clay, you can see me make it in the video. Thank you!
This is the same pot seen at the bottom of the kiln on Nigel channel right ? th-cam.com/video/YPZUdnihykw/w-d-xo.html
it's beautiful !
Yes it is the same, thank you
