I am curious, how do you stay hopeful for a slab this big and with this thickness? I've been trying to make 3 10x10 slabs for a client for last two months and they're always cracking. How do you stay calm while making something this big? Also, can I use grog instead of silica sand?
@leesaewon16 күн бұрын
Hi! Thank you for watching! It is not easy as you know!!! Is this measurement in cm or inches? A tile? What clay body are you using? As long as it is not porcelain, the size whether in cm or inch should be ok. Yes, grog is fine to use as well. Drying evenly and slowly helps too. The clay I used in this piece is very grog heavy so it can manage the size. I had a lot of problems with porcelain slabs cracking even at 10cm oval shape. Or where there is slightly uneven thickness and the tension will cause a crack!!! My person experience with any other clay body (stoneware and earthenware) has never been an issue with cracked slabs. I am hoping to make a video on slab making so stay tune 😊

It depends how you want the pieces to look. Most of my tableware bottoms are all bevelled finished as I want them to look slightly lifted and not to have any sharp edges. Thank you for watching!

Is there a reason you didn’t wet the rim of the pot before attaching the new coil this time?
@leesaewon3 ай бұрын
The rim just before was wet enough so it didn’t need more water. I remember making this video in the winter. So you have to make a judgement to wet the rim or not before the next coil. Thank you for watching!

Thank you for watching. It is to compress the coil and when I thin the coil the top(rim) will not be flapping, so the rim will stay in shape.

When I roll out a slab, I start with a block of clay and hit it with a rolling pin to get down to the depth I need, usually one fourth inch. I live in New Mexico, USA. I have never seen the tool you use to get to your slab depth. I would be so grateful if you could tell me the name of the tool you use, and where I might purchase one. This tool seems, to me, to be so immediate and in touch with the clay. You are such an inspiration! Thank you!!!

Thank you for watching! That is an Onggi making tool which I have used in my own way. It is a tool used to thin the walls of jars from the inside. Please see below clip for its original usage. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6ukdWRmqpl3hbssi=blIDBBh0lIRbWYY4 I made this tool with the Onggi master in the video above. I think it can be bought at Korean pottery suppliers in korea (most Onggi makers make their own) but not sure in the US. If you know, Adam Fields (US potter who learnt Onggi in Korea), he might be able to direct you better. Thank you!!
