Customer Reviews
Great source for fellow potters!
Thanks so much for your podcasts! It's great to listen and hear experienced woodfire potter's exchange information on a variety of subjects. I really enjoyed hearing Gas speak on kiln building, the cup, and historical Japanese pottery. I could have listened to him go on for a few more hours.
Helpful, informative, and engaging!
Thank you so much for creating this! It is so helpful for me to hear the voices and approaches of so many different potters. As a (very) young and pretty inexperienced ceramic artist, it is just so great so soak up all the information and wisdom that these episodes contain. I especially loved Simon Levin and his approach to his work.
