Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Quick question for those of you who've done pottery. How did you wedge? Well, more importantly, how did you know you'd wedged correctly, or were finished? Everything I've come across basically says to chop your clay in half with a wire tool

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Would food count? I know some people who are passionate about cooking, both the visual and taste aspects of the craft. There are people who go beyond sustenance for food to make art that can be eaten.   maybe baking and pastries

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? This is a very interesting topic. I've always wanted to get into some sort of art, for some reason I didn't think it was possible. I especially like the idea of woodworking! URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/544312/#p544312

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Oh sure. I didn't mean to make it sound like you know you just pick up some clay and blammo! You're making whatever awesome thing comes into your head. As with anything else, there's obviously a bunch of technique to learn. I just think

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? @25I have actually done pottery with a wheel.  The basic stuff is fine, and yeah pinch pots are easy, but the fun thing is that anything beyond the very basics starts getting into "if you touch it you lose" situations because it ca

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? I haven't tried taking a class, though we have a local free intro one locally. But pottery seems pretty tactile. I mean, I'm not saying sight wouldn't help, particularly if you're going for some sort of specific pattern. But it's mostly hand

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? @23As someone who was a bit into pottery as a kid and who played with all these non-clay clay alternatives, they suck as much as you think.One of these days I might get back into it, but this time with an actual pottery class or something

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Nah, you heat the glue material, sorry I refuse to call it clay, in a big pot. You have to stir it and stuff. But in the link I posted, you mix it cold, throw it in the microwave for a bit, stir it, and microwave it again. I'm lazy, so it just

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Microwaves don't heat objects evenly. I would be incredibly surprised if you can get anything really decent out of one.  But if the issue is that the oven scares you, put it in before you even turn the oven on, and gake it out only after

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? BTW, if you watched that whole video, she says she has something about using a microwave in the description. I will say that at least none of the stuff is toxic, I was a bit surprised that C4H6O2(n) wasn't. That's polyvinyl acetate, the main

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Metallic clays tend to be more expensive, and the kilns aren't cheap either. However, they're just clay, and pretty much work the same. So grabbing some air dry clay and practicing that would be a great starting point, if you eventually wanted

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done?

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? Actually, something to think about is hybridized art, like [silver clay]. In essence, you can shape a metalic clay and then fire it in a kiln or furnace to create jewellery or other metal crafts.@10Y'know, in a way making music can be a physical

Re: Crafting while being blind, can it done? I haven't done anything with it yet, but have you considered pottery? You can get air-drying clay pretty cheap, also tools pretty cheap, but you don't really need many, if any, to start out with. At least some air dry clays, Amaco for example
