Thank you for posting this video Tony..... as always, BEAUTIFUL WORK! I'm still learning and I think your videos are the best, you're very open about how you do your pots and I really appreciate that. Thank you again!

Wow, that was sooooo informative in so many ways! I’ve been making pottery for a couple years now and lately have been getting into the SW Native American techniques. You made this piece so quickly and made it look so easy which gave me a whole new perspective on the process. I hope you have a lot more videos here. Thanks! : )

I had to laugh (at myself) watching you cut that edge with a little rusty hacksaw blade. When I cut my edges, I have a good sharp knife and I have the hardest time! I try not to make sawing motions, my knife sticks to the clay, the edge starts to crack, I sigh, then stomp, then let out little cries of agony...and eventually I get something that almost looks like a nice edge. Your tip about using green scrubbies is helpful, but man I wish I could match your skill at cutting that edge to near perfection! Hats off!

Those glass blobs are a great idea. I could see it being hot glued onto something easier to hold, for someone elderly or similar. I love your videos.

the first time I did wild clay it was about the size of a golf ball, you are on a whole other level. Good video.

Thank you Sir!! Awesome bowl...

Beautiful!

Thank you Tony for another very interesting video. You certainly make it look so easy. I was wondering if you ever used tumbleweeds, russian thistle, instead of wood to do a firing? I have read that they are high in soda ash which might help darken the clay during the firing. Looking forward to your next video, cheers.

No never have, I know they used saltbrush root in the lower desert near the Salton sea

[@inekealting4040]

for polishing, marbles work verry well. let them roll around in the bowl. works verry good.

[@martingraham7440]

What was the tool made from that you tapped the textured pattern onto the outside of the pot?

[@tonysoaresnativeclays1434]

It was a little flat paddle with cordage wrapped around it

Hello - Does anyone know where can I buy a form pot? I would love to try this. I live in England. But unable to find anything similar to use as a form pot to get started building pots and bowls. thanks
