I am in my second pottery class and I watch your videos between classes. They have helped me tremendously. You explain everything so well and with so much experience and knowledge about how clay works. I just wanted to say thank you so much for making these videos. You are a wonderful teacher.

[@Vsmithpots]

Congratulations on choosing an addictive hobby, I hope you can get as much fun from it as I do.

[@SallyRoperPottery]

Vaughn, I made two garlic keepers today and thanks to your instruction they turned out perfectly. I even managed to make lids that fit ! Can’t wait to make a few more tomorrow as the ones I made today are gifts for my sisters.

[@Vsmithpots]

Congratulations. They will be needed by August when the crop gets harvested.

Hi Freddie, I just found your business card while tidying the studio. We have a storm tomorrow night with high winds, too bad I just put garden pots outside the studio. It is getting nice again, warm enough to bike ride. I hope the warm weather is not too awful for you.😅

After a busy Easter weekend, I finally got to watch your latest video this Monday morning. You could have knocked me down with a feather when you said my name and used the bubble level. I'm glad you are finding them useful. You have taught me so much and they are a little thank you for my teacher! As always a GREAT VIDEO with lots of details and beautiful pottery!! Thank you! 👏👏👏👏

[@Vsmithpots]

Thanks again Connie, the level is very useful.

[@chloespetservices]

Lovely and informative video. I wish you could show us some glazing techniques. Thank you! Regards from Malta 🇲🇹

My computer just broke so I am in tech hell at the moment. I will do a glazing video again soon. Thanks.

[@lynnwilson359]

Yes! I watch you in addition to Simon Leach who I have been watching for years. I learn so much and it helps my pottery skills. My handle pulling and attachment, for example are probably my best skill I've learned from both of you.

[@Vsmithpots]

Thanks Lynn, being mentioned in the same sentence as Simon Leach is a nice compliment. Good luck with your pottery journey.

[@RobGreenLDN]

Not sure how you're editing your videos but if you have anything that allows you to apply an EQ it might be nice to cut off some odd the high frequencies because the sound of the wheel is a little high and overwhelming 😊

[@Vsmithpots]

I stopped using that wheel because a few people mentioned it. It is a nice wheel but 35 years old and makes a squeaky noise. The early videos sometimes have that wheel in use, none of the new ones do.

[@RobGreenLDN]

@@Vsmithpots Ah okay! Squeak squeak. Was still amazing watching how fluidly you work with the clay, I'm just learning at the moment and can only hope with practise to get that fluid shaping happening!

[@jolynnclancey4892]

Apologies Vaughn, it's nearly impossible for me to watch your videos now, when you're throwing due to the motor chirp. Love watching but cannot have sound.

[@Vsmithpots]

I will swap the wheels over and do the videos on a Shimpo Lite, I love my 35 year old Brents but they both have a chirrup sounds.

[@jolynnclancey4892]

@Vaughan Smith please don't change your routine for one person. I love watching, regardless. Your chickens are inspiring!

[@Vsmithpots]

@@jolynnclancey4892 It is no big deal, I ought to be using the other wheels, they need a workout, or they develop a kink in the drive belt.
