I'm impressed that with no adjustments or fiddling with the holes he created a playable scale.

I may be 5 years too late..but your literally so awesome thank you so much for this tutorial

Thanks!!

Fantastic work.

I can’t wait to try this out next!

Great video! What a fun way to shape a round jar :)

I love your videos! They are incredibly helpful and simple yet detailed. I’ve been able to throw consistently large and tall cylinders thanks to your techniques :) I’ve improved so much! I even made my very first moon jar!

Very nice! I noticed that you didn’t oil your wooden bowl before you put the clay in there.. is it because it was a wooden bowl? If I use a different type of material, would I need to oil it first? Thank you…. Is oil better or cornstarch? Or plastic wrap? Plastic wrap leaves marks I noticed… 🤷‍♀️please advise…

Andy your lovely warmth of personality and eagerness to explain the finer details of hand placement and the importance of taking advantage of centrifugal force by stacking your coils inwards make this one of the best tutorials for the BIG scale clay vessels on KZbin. Im gonna take full advantage of this and try to make some wine storage vessels to sell to local wineries. I really want to make it as a solo potter, and big stuff is the dream since I saw Peter Voulkos's protege Peter Callas at my ceramics class in college. Ive never connected to an artform so deeply how I feel when I make large scale vessels such as these. Thank you!

I am a complete novice and this was extraordinarily helpful. Thank-you.

If you were looking to make a deeper bowl (think Ramen/soup), would you slump over the outside or inside? (I am a woodturner, so making the proper mold is easy.)

Hi Andy! Please tell how long do you dry ocarina before making holes in it: several hours, 2 days, one week? Do you cover it with plastic bags to make it dry slowly or it is ok to dry it on open air? Thanks.

Hi! I’m a ceramics major trying to make a big usable vessel. Do the seams between the coils smooth out on the inside/is there a way to make it smooth? I’m asking because I’m afraid of texture breaking the glaze and keeping it from being completely water tight.

You seem to have stopped posting videos a few years ago, but from the bottom of my heart I hope you are doing well. You explain everything so well. I'm coming back to pottery after a long lapse and I've been struggling to troubleshoot my issues since I'm not taking formal instruction this time around. Your videos are perfect, and I love the way you explain your hand positions! I'll definitely be incorporating (and anthropomorphizing) your "shadow bird".

Thank you. Very helpful.

hi ! thank you for the video, just curious if you happen to know the exact spec to plug into a skutt electirc kiln? like if im firing at cone 012, what preheat to input if any?

I dont know how to get plaster to dry properly, I tried getting calcium sulphate but it doesnt set hard at all!!!!

Beautiful work! How did you get this piece from the wheel to the kiln and what kind of kiln do you have that would fit this piece?

Andy, I just want to say that this video was so mesmerizing! I've only started ceramics in January this year, so I don't know all the possibilities yet. I am gobsmacked at the height you've built on this! I am surprised that despite having almost no attention span nowadays, I couldn't tear myself away from the screen! This was amazing!!! So inspirational! I was hoping that you or someone else can answer a question I have. I understand that it is important to maintain thickness in the walls to support the building and throwing, but once you are done coil throwing, how much can you trim the form? Or would trimming it any be detrimental to the firing process? Thank you!

Fabulous tutorial ... thank you. Curious to know what that market is for such large pieces? And are these mostly decorative or is there a functional use for the pots?

Nice guide. I'm going to be teaching a whistle class soon. I'm also trying to make a 3 chambered flute/ocarina. That's turning out to be a lot to have bitten off! I'm trying to make it somewhat unique in that I want one chamber to be the bass with two holes controlled by the thumbs to play 1st, 3rd and 5ths. the other two chambers to share (7) finger holes, so that they play relative 3rds and I"m hoping it gets a decent organ-like tone to it. I'm using math to try to get relative tones. I first tried a cylindrical design, but I couldn't get a sound out of it the second day after it dried to leather hard. I'm trying a more square/cubic approach on my second attempt. It's turning out to be too big, but I'm saving the whistle parts for last and I'm hoping I can get all 3 chambers whistling as desired, then I can dial it down on the 3rd one to get a good fit. I'm imagining I might have to make some "channels", esp for the thumb bass notes. such that where I place my thumb leads to a different hole position leading to the chamber to get the desired tonality. Long live imagination and exploration!

Awesome video. Thank you so much!

I followed your sprig method with great success thank you. BUT I'm struggling with applying them without them 'lifting'. Have you done a video on applying them please? Many thanks

Thank you for keeping it simple

This is the only video that really helped me make the ocarina work. Thanks a lot.

Esse formato de ocarina é bem diferente da ocarina peruana que tenho mm

Very cool !thanks for sharing !

The right way to pronounce is: si (ci-nnamon ) gilla ta ( ta-blet) 🤗

Hallo, good morning, What kind of plaster?

Very good 👍

hi, thanks for the video. loved it. can you pl tell from where you got the wooden bowl? does it not need an agent like corn starch to prevent sticking? i prefer to use these simple tools rather than expensive forms sold in market.

Great video!

Incredible...from Brazil

6:18 TOOT TOOT!! sorry

How do you make such even coils?

thanks Andy

Exelente MAESTRO! Gracias!!!!!

But what is the pasta used?

How do you move so much clay?

Very cool

Beautiful! Thank you.

Awsome! What a great way to show how you do it.

Great

당신은 점토가공을 매우 잘합니다

How do you wire something that big? on the bottom?

nice work in your website!!

Remakable

I’ve been watching your videos in the order that KZbin recommends. Thanks for giving out lots of useful information. I use KZbin for a lot of research on a variety of topics and there doesn’t seem to be as many videos in the ceramics space as other topics. Thank a lot!

That's funny the whole team was on board to make this today. In London UK and thank you for sharing learnt something new I'd love ❤️ to share my passion of the Mayans, at the moment there clicking heals, for me and feel the need to share underground, I be right back with link we should hear brothers and sisters I have edited... kzbin.info/www/bejne/epmUf2SrYph4iKM I hope you enjoy 😉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5rTeaKEjc54Z9E
