Thank you Simon. I've been watching your videos since your days in Spain around 2007 and tonight I learned something new once again. I need to tweak how I hold my fingers and add another pair of points of contact. Peter from Saskatoon.

Hey Simon, thanks for sharing your expansive knowledge here on YT... I just did my first class and I've already decided to get a wheel at the house to take this up seriously... just have to save up for a bit (thinking likely a Shimpo VL Lite). I've watched many of your videos, it's an amazing archive going back for years, super cool. Cheers to you, sir

[@sleachpots]

Yes I’ve been here a while! …I like it, I think I’ll stay ! Good luck with the new wheel. Learn to make cylinders 12oz x 5” tall x 3” wide.

Hi Simon! Can you show narrowing from a wide shouldered vase? I always get problems when buckling in. I have no problem narrowing from a cylinder, it’s after I add volume that causes the issue.

[@sleachpots]

Hi RK. I’ll do one in an upcoming video for you…as a follow on from the first video.
