Скачать или смотреть How to Make a Ceramic Teapot, from Beginning to End.

Strap in, this week's video is a long, and in-depth one, that goes over the entire process behind making a stoneware teapot. Parts thrown on the potter's wheel, then assembled, handle pulled, and so on.

33:19 - Rolling out the waddings to prop up the lid

34:49 - Firing the gas kiln
37:32 - Unpacking the gas kiln
38:27 - Grinding the lid smooth
39:18 - Sanding the base
39:42 - Finished teapots

My wadding recipe is: 50% china clay/kaolin, 50% coarse alumina hydrate. Mix together slowly and then combine with water very slowly, as it seems to turn to a liquid very easily, so add less than you think.

The gas kiln is a Rohde KG-340, and my potter's wheel is a Rohde HMT 500.

Thanks for watching!
