Great video! I'm looking to add custom profile ribs to my own practice as well, but hadn't actually seen anyone throw with such an extra profile rib before. Definitely helpful to see your process here. I also hadn't thought to use the height and width of the rib to set a throwing gauge, and will definitely be trying that out also.

I am glad you find this a useful reference. For this video I used such a complex design to show the extent of possibility for this method, but it gets quite tricky in this complexity level. Mostly I use this for much simpler designs and it is super useful to get great repetition!

@@da_forma that makes sense! The ribs I’ve got on the go won’t be anywhere near this level of complexity, but seeing the limits of what’s possible is pretty cool.

Interesting I ran across this video. I have been experimenting with the same concept with some success. Although I am making the “foot” of the rib long enough to reach the edge of my wheel head to also gage a consistent foot ring Diameter. Cheers !
@da_forma Жыл бұрын
I use the throwing gauge to set the wideness of the rim. With the rib placed upright, if the rim has the right diameter, so will the foot. I try to make these ribs in a way that the drag force on the wheel is minimal. With your methods, do you find any difficulty with the drag force of the wheel?
@coopart1 Жыл бұрын
@@da_forma yes I do, some. I also lift the back of the rib slightly once I start pulling the inside wall. My challenge is I like a shape with a larger mouth than foot. And a consistent lower belly shape. I’m always tinkering with making my own tools anyway! Cheers

Fantastic tool; excellent video without a lot of fluff. A couple of comments: are there other media, e.g., plastic, or a modified metal rib, that you have used? Also, it would appear that holding the template perpendicular to the wheel is awfully important, thus the two “feet” of the template to insure 90 degrees to the axis of the wheel, and minimizing friction of the wheel on the template.
@da_forma Жыл бұрын
Thank you! I think certain plastic materials could do the job. For this purpose I wouldn’t go for metal, since the continuous contact with the wheel might do some damage. That said, I never really tried other materials than wood for this. It felt like the better option from the start, it fells nicer to hold and more secure than plastic, while being soft enough to not cause damage to the wheel. You are right, having the tool properly positioned is a key factor and that’s the function of the two feet. And the smaller the contact area the easier it is to hold against the wheel. So it’s a matter of balancing the amount of contact to ensure the correct position while minimising the drag.

Awesome strategy! What material are you using to make the custom rib?
@da_forma Жыл бұрын
It is just a simple 3mm plywood. Not the most durable, but it’s easy to make and gets the job done.

beautiful! what type of wood is this that you can cut with a utility knife?
@da_forma2 ай бұрын
It is a 3mm thick plywood. It takes multiple passages and a bit of patience, but it is doable. It also depends of the quality of the wood, so less dense plywoods (cheaper ones) will be easier to cut.

@da_forma Жыл бұрын
After using the wooden rib to shape the clay, I am collaring in the upper section, since it was a bit off centre and tapering outwards. To make this I am making 6 points of contact with the clay all around and forcing it to move inward. After that I am using the needle to cut the piece to the right height.
