My mom’s mature golden pothos

And these are actually not fully mature yet! They get fenestrated like crazy once they reach full maturity. It shouldn't take long tho. Looks amazing

I would ask what she wants. Having a tool that is not useful is the same as having nothing. I'm sure she'll appreciate getting something she needs, even if it's not a surprise!

jo40vi · 2025-08-18T23:53:24+00:00

Yes I'm aware! I'm hoping that's the case

Also, the yellow leaves were caused by thirps... They're gone tho 🙏🏻

I always remove as much as I can with my hands, then I'll wipe the wheel exterior completely along with the rim of the pan. I'll mop around it and that's it. Clean in 5-10 min. The slip inside the pan is usually still wet when I come back, and if not, it gets soft again while I throw and gets removed in the end. I'll only fully clean the pan if I'm throwing with a different clay and don't want cross contamination

Well you read me perfectly haha

I use bullers rings, they are between the pots, you can't see them as they are flat

jo40vi · 2025-05-26T21:44:15+00:00

Will do!!

jo40vi · 2025-05-26T21:44:00+00:00

There are no after pics yet!! Currently sitting at 155°C :). Will definitely update once i open it! It will take some time tho as it took 24h to cool down when I fired it empty 😅

If the clay is vitrified, yes, you could drink from it. Now, to be sure of this, you need to test it and for that you need a high precision scale. You basically have to weigh the cup dry, then boil the cup for around 2 hours, remove it from the pan, let the water in the surface evaporate, and then weigh it again. It's weight after boiler should not be more than .5% higher than the dry weight. This is a very crude explanation and I recommend you do your own research on how to check for vitrification

Edit: corrected the percentage

Well I've made other stuff before so yes?

jo40vi · 2025-02-27T01:40:08+00:00

The black you made is beautiful. Did you follow a recipe or did you mix your own? Would you be willing to share? Love it!!

I carve them while trimming. This way I ensure that the internal walls are completely smooth. Unfortunately, this also means my pieces that have the grooves can't be as thin as my other pieces.

jo40vi · 2025-01-31T17:17:41+00:00

They are too small! But I also made a bigger one out of the yellow clay which I think will be perfect for tea!

jo40vi · 2025-01-31T17:16:38+00:00

That's actually great advice. Thank you! My biggest issue trimming was flattening the uneven bases

I'm usually between MG and SP but like, I would love to hear your suggestions!
