Repairing broken greenware pottery

[@jasongannon7676]

The day before I watched this video I chip a pot I spent a week on. Thanks for the solution.

I was fascinated by your video! Time flew by! Great job Foelber Pottery! I’d love to see a video with the finished piece if it’s available. What skill and patience. Thanks!

Thank your for this video and these tips! Had a hard time finding a video for green ware repair. I refuse to lose another piece to my clumsy behavior!

[@FoelberPottery]

Awesome! So glad it was helpful. Just take your time. Keep looking for cracks to develop as the vinegar dries and repeat the process as necessary until you see no cracking. Good luck!

Hi! Bob was a great potter and a great teacher. I was taking class with him when he passed. Getting a feeling for how long ago it was as you are making this repair. I love your willingness to listen to Bob and help finish quite a large piece. So many parallels to the way we find solutions in everyday life. 🌸🌺🌻

Hi Lisa! Glad to see your post. Hope all is well with you and the family. ~Judy

hopefully i will be popping in tomorrow to fix it, but i made a sculpture of a man sitting and managed to break his leg - i think i'll go for the repair rather than a do-over. my teacher managed to repair it, but then snapped the other leg off. (i have a video on my own channel of 'before the break'). the lady who does the firing suggested i use vinegar too, so....

I have a 19" tall piece that I am allowing to dry. It developed horizontal cracking about a few inches from the bottom.

Just seeing this comment now. Hope you were able to save your piece.

Sorry, I am just seeing this now. Hope you were able to save your piece.

Did it work?

[@FoelberPottery]

Yes it did!! There was one tiny hairline crack that didn’t really matter. I need to update the video and show the final result. Thanks for the reminder.

[@susanabailenacevedo5411]

@@FoelberPottery oh yay! So happy for you. Also, that's comforting to know as I am going to attempt the same today. ❤️

Need to increase your volume. Could not hear you!

[@FoelberPottery]

Thank you for the feedback. I made this video during the pandemic and not really knowing much about making a KZbin video. Hope to edit this soon and show the final results too!

Unfortunately I can not hear a word you are saying.

[@FoelberPottery]

Oh no! So sorry about that. Not sure why. Perhaps the volume was not up on your device? Thank you for watching.
