Here is the first installment of my new "Practical Primitive" series where I will make primitive pottery, then demonstrate how it can be used. In this video I make mugs, from start to finish, and then seal them and drink coffee in one. Anyone can make earthenware mugs at home using these methods with no special equipment.
