I am a potter ... ( 1 year ago by blekima)
I am a potter myself and every time I see this wonderful video of my favorite potter I get courage to continue...He is such an example for all the potters, so soft so near to the movement of the wheel and near to the essence of throwing the clay on the wheel...
Electric wheels take away all the beauty that we had the chance to watch on this video. Just beautiful as dneBinder1 said, just beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us...

Would it not be more efficient to use a lathe type wheel? as it is still human powered.

hi, i am not sure about his being left handed, cos hi revolves wheel with right hand. but the wheel revolves clock wise, may be thats the reason he uses the 'other' hand as compared to anti clockwise wheel. i am not too sure

I think he made a hollow form that he will later cut for the water pot's lid... where are there more Shoji Hamada videos?
Array ( 8 months ago by BLACKCLIFFS)
hello,
My teacher Mick Arnup asked me which way I'd like the wheel to spin so I had a few goes at centering and liked clockwise.
I have a Hamada wheel but I mostly use it for putting footrings on rectangular platters which are draped over a wooden hump mold.
The usual reason given for clockwise wheels is that the right hand is usually stronger for using the stick. However lots of eastern potters Throw clockwise.
My Japanese student Aya Ikeda also threw lefthanded although she is righthanded.
I was really quite ... ( 8 months ago by Joey8sammy)
I was really quite surprised to see the enclosed top for a hot water bottle after several minutes of raising/lowering and sorting out a lip on the bottle form which I thought went rather wrong and then a change of plan seemed to appear. Interesting to see SH's thoughts evolve as perhaps, as I stand to be corrected, pots just evolve.

im new to throwing, what does the stick do?
What difference ... ( 5 months ago by chopin65)
What difference does an electric wheel have on the outcome of the form? Is there an appreciable difference in how it affects the process?
I ask because I am a writer and switched from a typewriter to a computer and it had a huge impact on my writing.
The electric wheel ... ( 5 months ago by onomatchi)
The electric wheel gives the potter more fine control over the piece they are throwing, while a momentum wheel with it's constantly changing speed promotes a more flowing or organic nature to the finished piece
Thank you. Again I ... ( 5 months ago by chopin65)
Thank you. Again I see a relationship in the way a technology shapes the artist craft. Writing on the computer often means more revisions and in a smaller space of time. This video is so fascinating. You can move and alter text in ways not possible with hand writing or using a type writer. Old school writers attach a sense of nostalgia to using typewriters, but I think they are more cumbersome.
Before the electric ... ( 4 months ago by elshisu)
Before the electric is the kick wheel, but even before that is just a very slow turning of the piece in an almost fix surface. All three ways have a deep effect on the result, but all three are still alive today and some people still prefer to use not even a kick or stick wheel, for instance in the southwest (USA) or in many parts of Mexico. As for myself I have tried all except the electric wheel.
When it comes to writing I like handwriting and computer, not the typewriter.
I love Hamada's ... ( 4 months ago by guywolff)
I love Hamada's throwing a lot.One interesting point to watch for. In Japan the wheel is going clockwise so the leading strong Right hand (if Hamada is right handed)is on the inside of the pot. In the west the leading right hand is on the outside of the pot. This makes quite a difference . All the best , guy wolff
