@@JustinsMakery i want to ask...what type of color powder used for the clay...can i use colored cement?

that's is exactly what I though 😳🤣

Not much, old sport! Please someone get the reference

Woof!

Also, store bought clay is fairly significantly aged. aging your clay adds plasticity and can help make it easier to work. its a lot of work but if you just keep making a bunch of blocks of clay, mix in grog, and let it age you should have something nice to work with eventually. easiest way to age is to just block it up and let it sit around in a thick plastic bag like one of the old ones the store bought clay comes in. every couple of months pull it out, make sure its not completely drying out and if it is getting too dry then work some moisture into it bt spraying it with a spray bottle and kneading the moisture in.

And dont let it freze or else you will have a mess tgat will have yo ve dried out and ground back to a power and remade so dont let it freze ​@@osteth

Or sand

temper?

@@osteth this is true. The Chinese potters used to prep clay for future generations letting it age in burlap sacks, inside the caves they dug it out of, so that it would age and get better.

during rainy season i always grab a handful after jumping over it and getting stuck from it for a while. Now that I have grown old, all I see is mud. Now this video brought back some good memories.

I, Nephi, having been born of goodly parents, therefore I was taught somewhat in all the learning of my father; and having seen many afflictions in the course of my days, nevertheless, having been highly favored of the Lord in all my days; yea, having had a great knowledge of the goodness and the mysteries of God, therefore I make a record of my proceedings in my days. Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians. And I know that the record which I make is true; and I make it with mine own hand; and I make it according to my knowledge". 1 Nephi 1-3 Hello friends, I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The verses above are the first three verses in The Book of Mormon. I know this probably isn't the most ideal place to talk about religion but I really do want you to know that God loves you. You may not love Him or care about Him at all, but He still will continue to love you. You are a beloved son or daughter of God. He knows you personally and He truly and deeply desires for your happiness. He loves everyone who has every lived on this earth, with a perfect equal love regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, faith and values and beliefs. The Lord loves you more than you can think or comprehend. "He inviteth them all to come unto him and partake of his goodness; and he denieth none that come unto him, black and white, bond and free, male and female; and he remembereth the heathen; and all are alike unto God, both Jew and Gentile" 2 Nephi. He is our loving, caring Heavenly Father. We are literally His children and creations. When we were in the womb, he knew about us" Jerimiah 4:5. He knitted us and we were created in His image. I testify to you that you and I are not a mistake. He knows the very moment when we stand and when we sit. He is familiar with all our ways and knows us personally who we are. The hairs on our very head are numbered. God loved us so much, He sent His Only Begotten Son for us, that we may be able to return and dwell in the presence of God again. The Lord has not forgotten about us even when it feels like He has. He will never forsake us. When we are happy, He and His angels rejoice alongside us. When we are sad, He heals us and lifts us up from our trials. He has always been there for us. He has always been our loving, compassionate Heavenly Father and God. Will we always be His children and people? I testify to you that God lives and that Jesus is the Christ. Both love you exceedingly and rejoice when you are happy. They both love you so much. They love you with a love unfeigned. They will never ever stop doing good unto you. I know that The Book of Mormon is true. "And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost". Moroni 10:4 I promise and testify to you, that if you will read The Book of Mormon, ponder on its message and ask God if it is not true, you will come to know of its truthfulness, whether its true or not true. Remember my friends that God loves you with all his heart, might mind, soul and strength. He wants you to be happy. He knows what you are going through and dealing with right now. He desires for you to return back to Him. Unfortunately, He has been misrepresented and seen as a cruel and angry God who anticipates for us to slip and writes down every mistake we make waiting to punish us by those who do not know or know Him fully. My friends, God has stored many opportunities and blessings for you. He is incredibly eager and desires with all His heart to bless you abundantly. He wants you to live with Him again. He only wants the best for you and your well being. He wants to experience everlasting joy and indescribable happiness in this life and in the life to come. He wants you to partake of His goodness and come and follow Him. The Lord does not care how early or late you decide to come unto Him. I testify to you that if you have strayed and wondered off the path that there is hope in Jesus Christ, The Savior of the world. The Lord accepts those who come unto Him whether your early, late or just in time who desire to change. The Lord will accept you wholeheartedly and forgive you if you are willing to change. The Lord will welcome you and will always be ready to embrace you with open arms. The Lord will lift us up in our trials and use us to bless the lives of those around us if we are willing to change.

If you have taken the time to read The Book of Mormon and this comment, thank you. It takes a huge leap of faith and a lot of courage to muster enough faith to read in the Book of Mormon and to believe in something in a personage that you may never see in this lifetime. Although we may not be able to see God and Jesus Christ in this life, I testify to you that they are real. They do truly exist. I promise you that if you will pray to know of their existence, you will come to know whether they exist or have been made up. You are my friends. The Lord loves you and despite all our weaknesses, complaining, arguing, and shortcomings, he still loves us and will forgive us if we will humble ourselves before Him and diligently seek correction and do whatever is needed to repent. Remember that The Lord is always available to talk to through prayer 24/7. No question sounds too silly for Him. James wrote, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him" James 1:5. If you must know whether or not something is true or evil and deceptive, you can always pray to God. He will help you know what the truth is and what is not the truth. He will never be too busy to talk to. He will give you strength you need to overcome your temptations and will give you the strength you need to endure through your trials and afflictions. Paul said that The Lord will not give you temptations that you cannot resist, but that in your temptations, He will provide a way for you to resist and overcome them. He will provide a way. He wants to bless you and reward you abundantly. The Lord knows you and will not forget you. You are loved. You are utterly amazing. You have incredible potential. You are not forgotten or ever will be forsaken. You are special. You are unique. You are one of a kind. You have been reserved for this time and The Lord needs you on His side. It simply would not be the same without you. Thank you for your time.

Hi David. I'm from york, uk and I've been putting for about 3 years. I've always wanted to use local clay, for eco reasons and because 15 years ago, before I became a potter, I dug my lawn up and was amazed to maybe 200lbs in a very small area of solid moist clay! At the time I cursed as it weighed a ton and was a pain to get rid of. I then laid a patio over the soil! Omg under my patio is clay! I so wish I'd not laid the patio now. Anyway, a neighbour has just been digging his garden up and 4 feet down he found clay...so hes got me 2 wheelbarrow loads. I've never done this before but have read just a little bit about it...so wondered a) are you still digging your own clay and b) if so, do you fancy sharing ideas and information as we go through the process of learning how to do it?... I'm on instagram as @crookedtailceramics if you want to send me a direct message on there. It's all new to me so it would be good to pool knowledge as I'm experimenting with my local clay. He only brought me a teensy lump round yesterday but I chucked it on the wheel without any sieving at all and threw a tiny pot...it has 3 tiny stones in it but other than that was really really smooth and easy to throw. But I think it's a bit "short" as I did the "coil test" and it was cracking. Any who, good luck!

Be good..think good..and embrace good. Let go these old ideas..be free and look inside yourself, for you my friend have more power than you know. Don't be decieved. Rejoice. Don't take my word for it. Maybe for once in your life you will do your own research and use a little common sense. Energy..Frequency and Vibrations. Mankind. Power..and deception. "For he without sin be the 1st to cast the stone" openly admitted by the church of being added for inspiration! How many contradictions before one must realize that History is exactly what it is "His story/the Victor's of past" telling their stories. Which by the way where not foretold. .but rather reprinted with their own twist from much earlier stories. Life is good.

backyard clay is just fine, you only have to work harder to make it into a shape thats all

@@voszvaivaldtkoszikovokh6418 Thanks mate. I made many pots but sadly I couldn't get them fired!

@@rishabhmayank have you considered pit firing? basically just digging a hole, putting slow burning flamable material in it, putting the pottery inside, then burying it? like obviously i just described it hella simply and it does have a high risk of shattering during firing this way buuuut it looks cool as hell when it works

@@YukikoAiko Digging a hole is a luxury we city dwellers can't afford!

cooking it in an oven shouldnt be more unsafe than cooking anything, but the bills may rack up too much

I let my sludge sit in a large bucket for about 3 months I think a few small insects, snails and rotting leaves added to the mix. Once sifted it came out with excellent working properties and it's so easy to throw.

Nice heels

It was regular soil for what's in my backyard. I did try to pick a spot with less weeds, but I didn't really seek out a particularly "clay-ey" area.

I broke my foot cause of that shit .... Fucking scoria

The natural clay from my back garden was a mid-grey, when fired to bisque it has come out a vibrant orangey-red brown as in this video. I suspect it will be dark brown when I've vitrified it.

@leila lalala what did you find?

Hi. Do you know where I could find more info on these japanese clay aging tradition? and/or about microbes' effects on clay? It sounds really interesting. Thanks for sharing!

@@TheEDGAVE so first, my disclaimer is that I am not scientist. I know this info because I took a pottery class in college and threw a bunch of pots that were really just practice and didn't want to fire them and have to buy more clay. So one of the grad students told me that if you let it dry, break it down into dust and then let it sit in a bucket of water it will become clay again and he mentioned the only problem would be that without aging it would lack the elasticity that good clay has. That's when he went into telling me about the old Japanese masters that would make clay and let it age for several generations before it would get used and he would be using clay made by his ancestors several generations before him. He told me that the beer would help to add microbes/elasticity without it needing to age. I want to say he mentioned something about moldy clay being good......I don't know scientifically if mold and microbes are the same.....I might be mis-useing the term microbes. But I do know the beer trick worked well. I think he also mentioned that they would make the clay and then store it somewhere cool and, obviously moist, where it would be harvest years later. That is as much as I know. If you find more info about it I'd love to see what resources you looked at because it is an interesting topic.
