[@intergalacticpeachpatrol]

the last minute and a half was quite entertaining, watching you race to the finish! loved watching your tutorial. thank you for sharing :-)

[@JaneScottCeramics]

Hehehe yes, it was speed potting at the end!! Glad you enjoyed it ❤️

[@soukainaeljoumani7733]

I just love your spirit and the way of teaching!! Thank you so much ❤️

[@pebblebeach7995]

I have just discovered your videos and THANK YOU!!! You are so, so good at explaining slab building and teach with such a natural and unpatronising manner. I have learned so much from you already! :-D Thank you!

[@brianmitchell132]

I like the idea of wrapping the slab around the base rather than placing it on top. Seems to safe you a lot of time from smoothing on that bottom joint

[@JaneScottCeramics]

Yes! Its a better way I think... Thanks for watching 🌈

[@micheledickey4066]

I agree. I am going to try this for sure. I think you ran out of time and didn’t show how you finish the bottom of the mug at the seam. Do you just use a brush and slip or a coil?

[@CristinaBphoto]

Merci de partager votre savoir, c'est très généreux ! 🌼 J'adore votre bonne humeur et votre façon d'expliquer 💖✨

[@selahhickerson3139]

You are seriously the coolest lady! I loved this! Thank you!! :)

[@JaneScottCeramics]

Hahaha thank you so much 😁

[@RoosterPootPottery]

You mention you had a video on making the underglaze medium, please share as I cannot location the video.

[@RoosterPootPottery]

Do you get cracking and pulling away from the bottom by wrapping around the bottom rather than putting it on top of the bottom?

[@gilhc002]

Ah such a great fun video, especially for someone like me who wants to learn to do pottery at home as a hobby. Also, as a Brit living in Australia, your accent and Britishness was so lovely and made me a bit homesick! Thank youuuu

[@JaneScottCeramics]

Thank you, Australia you say? Sounds great - grey and cold here!! Happy potting ❤️

[@micheledickey4066]

I was wondering if you have any videos of or know of a way to make a foot on a handbuilt pot? I am using glazes that move and everyone I see that uses them make quite a deep foot on their pots to keep the glaze from dripping off. I don’t have a wheel bc I only hand build. You’re the only one that I can think of that has answered my questions in the past and might know of a way to do this. I’ve tried to find a video but I can’t find any. Thank you.

[@JaneScottCeramics]

Sorry for the late reply - I’m in Spain at the moment having a break…. Yes a foot ring - i normally just attach a flat strip of clay to the base - mark it out first with a template and score and slip it into place… 👍🏼

[@lynetteeaton1165]

Great tutorial thank you. What do you use to work on please? What is covering your table? thank you

[@JaneScottCeramics]

I just work on bare plywood, its an excellent smooth work surface. ❤️

[@lynetteeaton1165]

@@JaneScottCeramics Thank you

[@micheledickey4066]

What about the seam inside the mug floor and the wall?

[@JaneScottCeramics]

The seams are nice and flat and tight - no need to mess with them... or tidy them up at all...👍🏼 minimal effort!

[@loraaleo3170]

can yu please say inches?

[@charlottesmom]

Its very easy to look up and convert cm to inches...plus most rulers in the US have cm on rulers already.
