How to Make A Pottery Dinner Plate - Part Two

[@Mangrimmy]

I have never made anything from clay, or pottery, but I do enjoy watching your videos. You are my favorite youtuber.

[@sundaeblues19]

I reaaally wanna see how they turned out after glazing. I try to do different carved patterns on my plates for the glaze to pool in. But the idea of a little frame framing the food is quite interesting!

[@floriangadsby]

Me too! Soon hopefully, although I already accidentally bonked one of these, cracking it. 😬

[@sundaeblues19]

@@floriangadsby ugh I know how that feels

[@xyzbakedgoods]

@@floriangadsby well...did you ever get a chance to show the final glazed pieces? Beautiful process you have!

[@Davidthefoodandwineguy]

Would love to see the glazing process

[@lilyai4062]

You're so hardworking, makes your own products, has so many camera angles, record, voice over, edit wow

[@zoekane4012]

Really enjoy your videos, and always watch your cleaning up at the end. I hope you'll do a video showing the end results of these plates. TFS!

[@sharonpeek7728]

Thanks for another great class! I ordered your book last night. It is coming from Maryland to South Carolina. I cannot wait to read it.

[@rayeaglenz]

Always special, always a reminder of the magic to be found in nature, and silence, thank you 👍😊

[@Moharani21]

I hope you have people to help you with cleaning up and all. Can't imagine the hard work you do! Hats off You're super super amazing

[@floriangadsby]

Thank you! And I don’t, it’s all just me :)

[@angelaotoole1316]

Thank you for all the details you put in your videos. It's very helpful! I find trimming plates is a lot harder than throwing them, you make it look effortless!

Thank you Sam, much appreciated.

[@queenie524]

Scraping is also one of my fav part when I clear the clay on the broad

[@danielhmeedan107]

great as always 🌷

[@stevenrapp623]

Great Video

[@kairon156]

Very cool video.

[@GreenDayFanMT]

Flat is also great!

[@78Fathom]

Thank you for your explanations ! Can you tell me though, how i could correct some irregularities from the base of the plate ? I did it wrong when i used the metal wire, and so, the bottom is not flat 😔 i have some difficulties to correct that.

[@just_nidhiii]

Hello :] I'm early for the second time back to back!

[@axcthegreat]

Do u wax the entire bottom of the plate for glazing? That's seems like a large area to keep that bare look on but the shape looks fine. I love these plate videos so far.

[@TheAGradio]

Thank you so much for all your videos and such great instructions. Hope I can throw a plate! What do you use to burnish your pottery?

[@dhumparoo]

forbidden rolled ice cream!

[@plwashakhann521]

Beautiful....👍👍👍

[@morgankotze7687]

How did you get the bottom of your plates sp smooth before trimming? I did not see any cutting marks from the wire. Exactly what method do you use from after throwing to trimming? Do you wire off the plate and then again before trimming or don't you wire off these pieces? Your response will really better my understanding, thank you! Your work and videos are amazing

[@jonathanrush6317]

Wonderful video - thank you. Can I ask what are the diameter of your MDF Batts? I am about to attempt some dinner plates following this but need to make myself some extra batts.

[@mechavos4066]

A question - do you ever get dizzy while working with spinning plates? Never thought I would experience something like that just from looking at it

[@mattmcgrath9061]

Beautiful

[@AlexJenkins-x1g]

Can you put activated charcoal or argon into a top loaded electric kiln to get low oxygen effects in firing?

[@pavlamutinska4139]

I also reaaally wanna see how they turned out after glazing 👀👀

[@laurenwright5076]

I have a burning question. Since you dont trim a foot ring, do you just leave the bottom unglazed? Is that alright? If it is alright, is it possible to not trim the piece if youre throwing thin enough?

[@dawnmunro644]

Hi Florian thank you for sharing this video. Do you have a photo to share of the glazed result? Thanks

[@leslieg8219]

I love your videos. Could you please let me know where I can find the tool you use on top of a piece when you trim? I too, love trimming. I feel like it refines the shape and makes the clay smooth and soft. I also find scraping the bats. Thanks for giving me the confidence to attempt plates.

[@floriangadsby]

It’s made by a potter called Richard Carter on Instagram - (richardcarter6952), you need to DM him and he’ll send you one! Amazing tools.

[@stuf7160]

Hi, I wanted to say thanks for your detailed videos, they are so so helpful! I have a couple of questions: When you throw the plates, how thick is the base of the plate? And you mentioned you dry the plates slowly over a couple of days. Do you cover them up at all during the drying process or do you let them dry uncovered?

[@zoeprimrose2309]

One of your trimming tools appears to be a Bison triangle one from which one of the sides has been removed. Did it come this way? Or is this an adjustment you made? You have beautifully maintained tools; I am awestruck by your self-discipline. As many have already said, thank you ever so much for making these really fine videos!

[@floriangadsby]

I didn't remove it, he just sells them like that and I love it! So good for trimming straight sided pots.

[@fiskfisk33]

How do you know when you reach the correct thickness of the bottom?

[@mdvpplpp6801]

Would be great if you can make another video on making bento plates

[@vincent-co.fishing8092]

I started throwing earlier this year because my school has some pottery wheels, I am having a tough time centering my clay, do you have any tips to help with this

[@floriangadsby]

I’m making a video at the moment that’s just about centring clay. So you’re in luck! It’ll be released in a few weeks hopefully.

[@abennion4516]

What tools do you use, I love the squared corners.

[@audreydarconnat7824]

Merci !

[@HannieRie]

Have also make clay pots?

[@chrzzzzz]

Is your throwing gauge permanently fixed to your board?

[@toddcamnitz6164]

Hey Florian, long time silent follower. Recently all my large plates have been cracking down the rims and around the area the rim meets the body of the plate while drying. Is this likely a result of drying too quickly? For how long do I need to keep them under plastic after trimming?

[@floriangadsby]

Hey Todd! It sounds like either you're trying them out too quickly or perhaps there's a disparity between the thickness of the rim of the plate and the base section. Sometimes if one part is much thicker than the other it'll cause part of the pot to split but rim cracks are famously a result of the pot drying out too quickly. I'll keep mine under plastic for 3-4 days, if not longer if I'm able.

Where can we get that white and black spinning thing you hold down your piece while turning it?

[@floriangadsby]

From a potter called Richard Carter on Instagram.

[@ClownWhisper]

Our tools are almost identical

[@ellane-d9w]

I am more interested in the clay and the making process. It seems that people spend more time on the Kiln. Which is a by part of the process.
