[@hsinchuen]

"This taught me mor in 33 min than my ceramics teacher did in 4 years...THANK YOU!!!" Hi, thanks for your comment! It was exact my original idea of posting videos to help more people to have a good start in learning throwing on the potter's wheel.

[@vegieveganic7963]

Hsinchuen Lin wow 🤩 just wow 🤩 and wow 🤩 it was amazing 👏 thank you 🙏

[@tafsa8758]

Thank you so much for sharing this skills I wanted to learn ceramics for long time ago it cost to much money for only 4 classes 😢and I'm learning with you by just watching your videos! Thanks and God bless you 🙏🏻

[@kjaabekk]

11 years later and still the best instructional video out there 🙌🏆

[@LadyGaia108]

My goodness, you go beyond generosity to not only cut your pots in half to show us what you are doing on the inside, but to also show us with a clear plastic cylinder. THANK YOU! Greetings from France

[@clayphoenix]

Of all the pulling demos I've watched, I've never seen anyone use a plexiglass cylinder to show hand positions. Brilliant! You are a gifted teacher. Many thanks!

[@TaiChiKnees]

The slices through the clay and the demonstration with the clear cylinder make it SO much easier to understand. Thank you so much!

[@paigeharper5873]

this is absolutely the best video to learn how to lift a cylinder

[@wildsurvivalskills]

This is an incredible video. Thanks for all the great visuals and for sacrificing so many pots!

[@duhhawaiian]

Best teacher on the net! Thank you.

[@robbye613]

You are a most kind and giving person to share your amazing throwing skills in such a generous fashion. You should have the strength to continue in all that you are.

[@julieta_ceramics]

I have never seen a more didactic explanation! Thank you so much!!

[@illustrious1]

I learned a new word today. Thank you! 🤗

[@janeneh.3093]

Using the plastic cylinder was ingenious! It made it so i could really see the way you positioned your hands, so helpful! Along with cutting open the cylinder, also very helpful‼👍. Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher for all of us that are wanting to become better potters💞❣

[@carolwang3129]

So incredibly clearly explained! Thank you for taking the time to cut cross-sections to show hand positioning and relationship at each step. I'm a beginner student and it's really helpful to see each step dissected and repeated. I've been watching your videos for about a month now and I've incorporated a lot of your lessons into my practice pieces. Thank you so much, you are a very patient teacher!

[@dochaswilliams6648]

Did anyone else almost cry every time he cut open his pot to show the inside?

[@loriz6103]

Dochas Williams this is how my teacher teaches in class too lul :(

[@Kleshtrem]

why do people always cry when it's being cut up?

[@leetcheez]

the walls are so even and the pulls are so uniform--each example he cuts open is better than anything i've ever done.

[@odinfreya6324]

I was thrilled and grateful. It really helped me understand what he was doing and how.

[@lesleyring6711]

Yep

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

excellent tutor. Very good speaking voice and your technique of showing what the stages should look like and how to achieve it are brilliant.

[@MamaMacabre]

This is the best throwing demo I've ever seen.

[@perrybrown7650]

I have watched a lot of pottery instruction videos over the years, but this is absolutely the best. It has totally revolutionized my throwing.

[@hsinchuen]

Good to know! Thanks!

[@cookerymagic2167]

You are such an amazing teacher! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@hsinchuen]

You are very welcome!

[@MrUtubeFanatic]

Of the MANY cylinder wall pulling demonstrations I have watched, in my opinion, this is, by far, the best.

[@susancrane2135]

The clear cylinder showing how the hands are placed is so helpful! this is the best video I've seen on how to pull up a vessel. Thank you!

[@Annalena30144]

Excellent demonstration. I loved the fact that you cut your pieces to show the inside and how your hands moved along the wall, and secondly the use of clear cylinder, that was genius. Thank you. I learned a lot.

[@wayakamejima4771]

Thanks to your instruction, I was able to make the largest thrown pot I've ever made yesterday. It was a saggar for doing reduction firing in the electric kiln. It was basically just a large cylinder with a fitted lid.

[@santoselenagraham9907]

I couldn't believe you were "destroying" your work step by step. Thank you so very much!

[@Pandthewolf98]

You are a VERY gifted teacher. All of your details provided changes the experience on the wheel from effort to joy. WOW - I thank-you

[@MrFavoritetools]

Im pottery student and i think it is a amazing explanation! I appreciated it so much!!! You are a great and generous master! The effort you make to help us understand the process into the cilinder is wonderful! I have all much cleared now.

[@alex225able]

Using the clear plastic cylinder showed the hand movement we needed to know. A very simple but effective idea that does the job. Thank you so much!

[@cathypaxton9634]

Thank you so much! I am self--taught and working for about 3 years. I have watched many videos trying to learn the craft and you are the only one who has shown me exact hand and finger placement along with cut-a-ways. Invaluable!!!! Thanks.

[@VidyaLake]

Very methodical and useful tutorial, with cross-section and clear glass cylinder used to demonstrate EXACTLY HOW to apply hand and rib pressure to lift a vase. Thank you so much and please continue producing these exceptionally helpful videos.

[@sundaymornings5740]

I just found you-💜Thank you, Mr. Lin, for sharing your superior abilities in such a teachable and very pliable manner. You are an exceptional teacher! Thank you!

[@sheilawhistler6739]

That was the BEST demo I've seen! Loved the stops every step of the way with the slices and the use of the glass cylinder to show what you are doing and with which part of your hands!!!

[@AngelsTalk]

loved the clear explanations & the use of the clear cylinder & cutting the piece in half to show what the hand is doing on the inside! absolutely the BEST on youtube. thank you!

[@folditcuzucan]

This made me truly understand the mechanics behind throwing... legendary teacher

[@HyunjeongPark]

Wow, This is the best video I've ever watched so far!

[@윤광배]

Best of best. Thank you so much!

[@shaofanghsu]

老師的每個教學影片真的都好用心。功夫需要的細節都交代得很清楚，作品的細節也都小心處理，是很好的模範！謝謝用心拍攝並分享！

[@whitefoxaurafeild3743]

am i the only one who crys a little on the inside when he cuts something so pretty, that you know you'll never be able to pull up so well?

[@drspod801]

Wall thickness is something you have to keep up on and practice. If I start to get lazy, you can see it in the cross sections. The damn things don't lie.

[@bloomingshea]

the best most comprehensible instructor!!

[@marilynrabinowitz8369]

This is by far the best teaching method I have seen. As a total beginner, I have had a lot of disasters. Now I understand more clearly where I am going wrong. Thank you so much for sharing your skills. You are a Master Teacher.

[@norcalfran]

Mr. Lin, Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge through your KZbin videos. You are very generous to allow us all to learn from you. I have been throwing pots for three years, but have started taking it more seriously during the past year. Your instruction on how to throw taller cylinders and more challenging shapes is very helpful. I look forward to working my way through your whole video library. Thank you again.

[@michellebowceramics476]

Thank you for this demonstration. I loved how you cut the work in half to show the inside. I watched your video 'throwing a tall bottle' first and wished I could see the inside of the bottle, then i found this. excellent teaching.

[@keithmorgan8024]

This is the best video instruction I've ever encountered for clay work. Beautiful, clear, and really informative.

[@traven7]

You are so AWESOME!!!! The effort you make to help us understand exactly what you're doing is amazing and very much appreciated!!! You are my absolute favorite- thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! xo

[@Oshytalleyedewizwin]

This taught me mor in 33 min than my ceramics teacher did in 4 years...THANK YOU!!!

[@gm5147]

Thank you for the pedagogy that you have put in place in all your videos!

[@Grinder11xx]

You're a brilliant teacher, demonstrator and master potter. I thank you and appreciate all your video uploads. You have taught me to be a better potter.

[@szimonettaneni]

I haven’t looked at these in a while, but I find that in the areas where I have trouble, your explanations are key. Thank you so very much for your thorough demonstrations of technique.

[@jenmcfarlane7312]

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work. I have been attending pottery classes and now have a wheel at home...nothing seems to go right at the moment, to see your work gives me inspiration, many thanks for this.

[@UsernamesForDummies]

This was brilliant! Thank you so much for taking the time to show what you’re doing and the effects it has inside and out. So helpful! The acrylic cylinder was also a great idea. I wished my teacher would take some of your teaching on board.

[@terispadafora9762]

Learning so much, after one class and hours of watching these videos, my technique at open studio was drastically improved.

[@claymoma]

Thank you for showing us the "how" while explaining the "why" of centering and pulling. So many videos cover only the how (most not very well either). Your video on centering has helped me so much that you now have a devoted follower for life in me!!!! LOL Thanks again and please, please keep the teaching videos coming. Warm regards from Debbie in Florida

[@raygorish3089]

excellent video and you're a great teacher. you answered so many questions about what's going on inside and with the other hand outside, many thanks for taking the time to give such a thorough lesson.

[@gyrocompa]

When one watches the video, it seems easy, not because it actually is but because of the teacher's skill and pedagogy. Very interesting, even for people who don't do pottery...

[@shauhengli5177]

This is the best tutorial I have ever seen and Mr. Lin you are so patient!!!! 林老師謝謝你錄了這麼好的教學短片你真是很有耐心！！！！

[@pixelspring]

Your lesson technique is simply the best. So informative and clear with nothing missed out. The cut away cross sections are so helpful!.

[@ms00smartypants]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video, teach your technique, & sacrificing your beautiful works for us to get the clearest view of what you've done! THANK YOU! Absolutely amazing!

[@vegieveganic7963]

Thank you Hsinchuen Lin! Best ever teacher wow 🤩 just wow 🤩 and wow 🤩 it was amazing 👏 thank you 🙏

[@bingispaceman]

I am so thankful for your videos. This is the best explanation/demonstration I have found. The entire collection of your video channel is helpful and masterful. Whenever I am studying pottery on the internet, you are my #1 teacher. Thank you, Hsin-Chuen!

[@nancyburns7513]

Amazing, most effective lesson I ever watched! The clear cylinder was so very helpful. I saved this video to watch over and over again. Thank you so much.

[@hsinchuen]

You could also watch this video I made 10 years later: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGrXqGysbZ2DkK8

[@rosannerasquinho4407]

So talented and so caring to share every single detail of his skill. Master potter !! Thank you

[@migzz7976]

Excellent tutorial, basically the hands are dance partners in the world throwing.

[@ambersullivan5730]

THESE VIDEOS ARE SIMPLY HYPNOTIZING!

[@sharonpeek7728]

That was fabulous. Very inspiring. I will watch it again before my pottery class this Friday morning.

[@kmbee28]

Cutting it through for better understanding is such a brilliant idea; however, my heart skipped a beat every time you cut through your beautiful work 😛

[@pamelasuttonlegaud]

What a useful and skilful demonstration! I was really impressed that you cut the piece open at each stage - it was so helpful. Thank you again

[@wnatta1994]

I love you’re channel. I started throwing clay last month I watched this vdo over and over again and today I tried pulling up cylinder first time and it worked perfectly. Thank you teacher Lin

[@hsinchuen]

You are welcome!

[@simonebooyse6927]

Thank you for the effort, patients and love you put in to teach. You are truly gifted in both teaching and pottery.❤️ All the way from Africa.

[@hueyyukon8143]

I appreciate the time you've taken to do this. Thanks!

[@lindseymhoover]

Hsinchuen Lin-Thank you so very much for all the tutorials. I have just started out a month ago and your technique and tips are invaluable to my learning process. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@8019Melissa]

YOU ARE A GOOD TEACHER AND I RESPECT THAT.

[@maryclayards2996]

This never gets old. Thanks again for your detailed instruction.

[@alejoandina]

thankyou so much for this and all the tutorial videos. You are a great master. Im a big fan from Argentina. thanks again and again.

[@liz9145]

Thank you so much for slicing the clay as well! It really helps to see what you did. You're a great teacher!

[@hsinchuen]

@potterylady1 Not at all, when I started my pottery class everyone was throwing this way in Taiwan. It was when I came to U.S. to see other people throwing using knuckle or sponge. Don't you think when I hold the Plexiglas upside-down my fingers/hands form naturally both inside and outside. Don't you think the outside fingers are more stable when throwing this way?

[@lorrainemillward1230]

Amazing - i started 12 week classe last week and by miracle made a pot ...yippee. Your lesson has shown me where I am going wrong so thanks very much - your amazing and I look forward to my class this evening to fix my errors ..... hopefully.

[@gretchenmiller3832]

So good - and showing with the glass cylinder is inspired. Thank you.

[@hsinchuen]

You are so welcome!

[@ehopdavila]

Maestro Lin, mi agradecimiento por esta gran demostración, creo que con esta clase podré resolver el problema que tengo haciendo cilindros. Muchisimas gracias!

[@GR-uh4st]

thank you so very much, i plan on watching this everyday in conjunction with practicing at the pottery studio. i appreciate your calm explanatory approach. many thanks~

[@LarryVest]

Excellent video. One of the best I've seen on the subject of throwing, lifting and pulling. Thanks Hsin-Chuen Lin!

[@lucyb3885]

Ingenious, didactic, AMAZING, never seen ceramics explanations like this before. Thank you for your teaching, please keep doing this kind of videos.

[@ChrisSNelson]

Thank you for all your fantastic videos! I have retaught myself to throw based on your methods and it has made all the difference. You are an excellent teacher and a master potter.

[@scorpisces182]

Im starting my first ever pottery program in a couple weeks and looking up instructional videos here on KZbin for reference. By far...this is the best out there! Thank you for posting this!

[@sakurako517]

Thank you for teaching for free. Cannot wait for my next lesson to try the skill you taught.

[@gonzo2.0]

Best pottery instruction on KZbin

[@clubpenguin359]

I will make all the greatest ceramic pieces because of this video

[@suzakico]

As a beginner, I tried this few times but was not sure what I was doing. The result was very marginal. Then, listening to the explanation especially up to 11 min. things became much clearer (at least, so I thought...). i may have a long way to go but am encouraged to give it a try going forward. Thank you.

[@Thekennel177]

Has anyone been able to determine what planet this guy is from? It can’t be earth. His talent is truly other worldly.

[@TitusLivy777]

A truly outstanding video! I keep coming back to watch it again and again. Thank you!

[@sandichen6600]

Best demonstration video out there by far and I have watched a TON at this point. THANK YOU Hsin-chuen!

[@hsinchuen]

I remade the video 10 years later with 2 angles. It’s even better. Check out my video #506, 507

[@hsinchuen]

Here is the link to the short cut. hsinchuen.wixsite.com/mypots/etsy

[@c1zhou2]

This is absolutely the best throwing video I have ever watched. Thank you so much! You have helped me improve my technique one million percent.

[@sarahmurphy6759]

So glad i found this video. I have had problems with opening and the first pulls. this will really help.

[@hsinchuen]

Pls also watch my video #57 for good opening. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/anq1e5mZrtesgsk

[@marytoutloff2838]

Great job on the video, the verbal instruction and the craftsmanship! Really enjoyable to watch and helpful.

[@fanniegirard2830]

Merci pour ces enseignements! Tellement généreux de votre part!!!

[@matthewseitz3113]

This is by far the best breakdown so far that i have watched. Thank you. Love your work

[@jpprieto]

It must be a poor teacher, since this is the very first basic gestures you are taught in any decent pottery school ! Anyway, it is a real pleasure to have it here so clear, detailed, and simple. Well done, hsinchuen lin. Should we call you lin ?

[@lollychessie]

Thank you for all of the wonderful videos you share with us all. I'm learning so much from you!

[@amalamucho]

Thank you so much for making this video, it is very helpful to see it with you cutting it too and showing how you are placing your fingers.

[@whiteyford31]

Wow! Thank you so very much for the detail you show in your teaching. No other video has answered so many questions. And there's so many more of yours to watch. Very talented. Thank you again. Dave Iserman

[@KMDay]

I am very excited to learn more from you - your technique is so superb! I loved #45 and I will be watching all your other you tubes, as I have only just begun with pottery and don't want to give up. I am a perfectionist and get really down on myself when I see my results, but this gives me hope that it's just clay and I can practice- practice-practice! I love my pottery teacher, she is positive and a great teacher, but this one on one is so awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

[@kimmihawks1602]

Very informative! I really appreciate the method you used to explain this technique! Thanks!!

[@michellefox7909]

this video totally transformed my mug making game!

[@MamereClaire]

All our thank you are warm and sincere, but buying a piece of Hsinchuen's work on Esty is a wonderful way to give back for all we have learned. It would be great if we could empty his Esty shop. Give it some thought. Claire
