Wow, normally I used the blade to more slowly carve the base in ceramics class. Didn’t think about adding water to help remove the clay. But I do this while it’s not leather hard (there was another class that needed the wheels covers so all out pieces had to have their bases at least half done and moved to boards. So no letting it dry) maybe next year I can use this! Advanced people got priority for wheel disks, and the 8x12 boards
@septemily2 жыл бұрын
Oh this makes me mad. Where was this when I was working on the wheel last semester, our teacher taught us the first part using the angled edge to cut, but he just had us lay the knife flat like you did without any water. God that would piss me off when I had to dig chunks out of my cups and clean it up.
@thenakedpotter2 жыл бұрын
Yes, it’s very possible your teacher didn’t know about the water delivery system! Most potters I meet never learned this and it makes trimming SO much easier. Funny to think how many things in our world we use haphazardly instead of as they’re truly designed. (Aluminum foil rolls comes to mind as another design that most people are unaware of - they come with locking ends in the box so the rolls don’t pop out!)

Also a helpful tip for storing clay I found that drying it and crushing it into a powder has been the best way that way if I need any clay I just take out a measuring spoon or two and then just add water that came up with that when I had a mold problem

Yes I store my trimmings and reject pots in a bucket dry too, then I’ll reclaim it when I need more clay or when there’s too much piling up!

@@thenakedpotter well, I know the ones that have a metal ball on either side are for contouring the sculpt... But I have something that's got a shaped hoop on each end, but I've only seen the ones that are actually blades on any of the sculpting videos I've looked at to try to research it... My best guess is that it's a pre-kiln tool, since the bladed ones online are shown being used post bake?
@Dudjrkfjjffjkffu2 жыл бұрын
If you know what your doing, you don’t need to add water. Adding extra water only weakens the base of your pot. Save yourself some time and trim it when it’s been dried some overnight. You will always get the best product that way. I was always an average thrower on the wheel but when it comes to trimming I’m top tier. Trust me, trim once it’s dried

Not everyone knows what they're doing and I primarily teach beginners, so I teach techniques to help them achieve success. Trust me, being supportive to beginners and showing them tricks to make things easier is much more helpful than leaving them to struggle and do it the hard way. ;)

Huh I wonder if different people have different names for the 'wooden knife tool" when I took ceramics it was called a 'Vampire'. Frequently when using the vampire we would do the cut at the base, but I would always stop the wheel and take the large chunks off by hand because the clay was always so stubborn and would latch back on ^^;. One of my favorite styles to throw was to marble I especially liked using 3 clays available Rosbod, Terracotta, and Stevie Whites clay always made for unique beautiful effects. If one has a wheel I recommend trying it once, but careful the clays used are soft, medium, and hard making the throw a bit complex.
@thenakedpotter2 жыл бұрын
Vampire!! I am pretty sure this was your teacher's pet name for the tool! (A good test, try googling "pottery vampire tool" and "pottery wooden knife tool" and you'll see what comes up.) It's cool though - pet names are great ways to help students remember things! For example, we have a ceramic chuck in my class that students started calling "the kevin" because the guy who made it is named Kevin and he signed it! Whenever anyone says "go get the kevin, it will help you trim this pot" everyone immediately knows what we're talking about! :)
