As a Pottery beginner it's increíble having your videos with such an amount of tips and seing usefull tools to make bonsai pots. TX so much Greg. Also editing is great!!!
The edditing of this video is amazing! In every second, from start to finish there is this huge amount of a thought proces present. It was really fun to watch and I learned something new. Thank you
Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it and that you noticed the editing work! It took me a lot longer than making the pot, but that's really the type of video I'm aiming for on the channel now.
Everything shown here is super valuable info for me now. From handling tips to tools. For the moment I am only sculpting small pots. Slab building a pot will be my next step. Thanks for this!
Thank you so much for putting in the effort to make such an incredible video 😍 I'm sure in the long run, it's definitely going to pay off producing videos like this!
Thank you very much, I also hope that it will pay off, it's really the kind of video I want to make, and I'm sure that the next videos will still improve in quality.
@@Greg-ceramics ok, donc tu est sur mac et il ne fonctionne pas sur pc 😮💨 j'utilise sony vegas, mais il n'est pas assez intuitif pour l'usage des effets sans un minimum de formation. Je cherche un logiciel plus intuitif sans prise de tête.
Toujours aussi sublime…😍 Et merci pour le making of, c’est vraiment très instructif. Et le fil a couper le foie gras est finalement très utile 😅 ( j’ai le même 😁)
Amazing video. Thank you for share your knowledge and experience. I'm from a small country and your video encourages me to go ahead with bonsai pottery.
Impressive work, beautiful and elegant. I know what I would put in there if I had it here... Not a bonsai, but an European orchid called Oprhys. A bee orchid from southern Europe (e.g. Ophrys speculum), in moss and a few crocus biflorum bulbs, with some beautiful river rocks. *Just dreaming.*
Really great video Merci Greg! Thank you for sharing your work it is without doubt, extremely helpful to see your tips and techniques. You're always so neat and it is a beautiful Pot. 🙏
Very good video on making a bonsai pot. Really like the sub-texts on steps, versus constant babble in between steps. Now about the few tools used: hand made? Or procured from a source?
Excellent work with thorough instructions. Your pots look amazing! Also love those glazes. I'm new to working with clay but have working with bonsai trees for more than 30 years. Thought it was time to give pot making a go now that I'm retired and have more time on my hands. I'm thinking it depends on the size of the pot but generally how thick are your slabs?
Thank you very much. It's just a board with pieces of clay, you can see the process in one of my previous videos. th-cam.com/video/6XY23Vnzn7o/w-d-xo.html
A wonderful and entertaining video! New subbie🙏🏼 thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us freely🎉 QUESTION: What is the glaze you used?😮 It is gorgeous! ❤
@@Greg-ceramics aw-dratz! 😕 I was hopeful it was either published or commercial 😏 I'll hit the drawing board... Or at least glazy and see if I have all the parts for something similar 🤔 🤷🏼♀️ ☺️ I'm loving your great results from clever "putter-togethering"😉 I am also being drawn to that part of this new journey I stumbled across. It's quite fascinating. Art 'On
Thank you very much, I use several quite often, but I will say that the most useful (for me) are the smaller ones in red and yellow (the most flexible)
Looks like a cone 6 firing. DO not put "big,/flat"in the bottom of the kiln- will warp and/or crack. Wondering why the middle does not sag in firing. I would put a scrap across the bottom, same height as feet but not attached, i.e. like a "post", to keep it from sagging.
This is a cone 8 firing. Normally, if your temperature is uniform, firing is identical everywhere in the kiln. I don't have any more breakage at the top than at the bottom of the kiln. Maybe your bottom coils are a little worn out ? Yes, the little extra feet are a good idea, I sometimes also do this on certain large pots which risk deforming.
It could be a solution if I always made the same pots in large quantities, but in that case I might as well use a mold. I don't do mass production, I like to do different things and be creative. The goal of my videos is to learn how to make all types of pot shapes manually. 😉

If you are making pots with slabs, start with small models, it's difficult to make rectangles that don't twist.
Beautiful pot + beautiful video period!
You are an amazing teacher and a very inspirational presenter. I really have an urge to make some ceramics now.😄
Great, so I achieved my goal! 😄

salut, Greg, c'est toi qui fais ce super montage vidéo, c'est aussi perfect que ton pot, bravo, vraiment magnifique
Merci du compliment
@@Greg-ceramics tu utilises quel logiciel de montage ? autre question, ou trouve-tu le temps de faire tout ça 😅
@@Herve_REVELARD J'utilise Final Cut Pro, et je fais ça le soir, 2-3h chaque soir !

And I really appreciate the time you take to watch this video, thank you so much 🙏
Śliczności. Nic dziwnego, że szło tak sprawnie jak tyle rąk do pracy. Czekam na kolejne filmy.
Bardzo dziękuję 🫶

Thank you, I try to do better and better 😊
Toujours aussi sublime…😍
Et merci pour le making of, c’est vraiment très instructif.
Et le fil a couper le foie gras est finalement très utile 😅 ( j’ai le même 😁)
Merci beaucoup 😊
Fun fact : tous les ans j'achète le même foie gras, juste pour avoir la lyre à trancher (parfois le fil lâche) 😅
Your work is superb, your glazes are so beautiful too .
Superbe vidéo. Tant de détails et d'explications c'est vraiment génial et inspirant ! Au plaisir de se croiser au Trophy ;-)
Un grand merci ! à bientôt alors 😄
What a fantastic pot!!! So, so good!!!!
This is it! Thank you very much sir

Beautiful editing (and pot, of course)...4 hands are better than two. Love the glaze too.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked the video editing, it was much longer than making the pot! :D

Great to see a full insight into what you put in to produce fantastic pots. Merci beaucoup
Thank you 😄🙏

Extasiado!!
It's very impressive. I want 2 try but where i find the raw materials. I want to know how can you dry it.
Parabéns pelo trabalho notável, saudações do Brasil e mais sucesso pro canal !
Muito obrigado ! 😄🙏
Very good video on making a bonsai pot. Really like the sub-texts on steps, versus constant babble in between steps. Now about the few tools used: hand made? Or procured from a source?
Thank you. Most of the tools you see in my recent videos are homemade tools. You can find some of them on my site ;)

Thank you so much. Good luck in your learning.
Usually my slabs are between 8 and 10 mm.
fantastico
🔥🔥🔥
Where can we buy good pottery tools like the wire cutter? Thank. You. ❤❤❤
Amazing work!
Whats in the pot when you flip it over on the rim in order to mount the feet?
Thank you very much.

Really tidy work as usual. I was thinking of getting those mud tool soft ribs. Which size do you find most useful? Many thanks
Thank you very much, I use several quite often, but I will say that the most useful (for me) are the smaller ones in red and yellow (the most flexible)
👏👏👏👏
The only issue I have with the inner wall is when the roots grow under the lip of the pot. It will be hard to take the tree out of the pot….. ❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Sorry should have kept rolling tape, i have my answer
slabs look almost leather hard, do you let them sit for a day or two?
about 2 hours

Yes, the little extra feet are a good idea, I sometimes also do this on certain large pots which risk deforming.
Why not use a box frame?
