This is a guide to setting up a pottery workshop covering not only fundamental questions such as types of premises, equipment and materials and how to make simple tools but also questions of marketing and promotion, legal considerations and finance. To illustrate these points, the author discusses how various potters have tackled the issues raised amd gives illustrations of a wide range of different workshops. The book draws on the experience of an international group of artists, so that the book is suitable too for potters outside the UK."

Setting Up a Pottery Workshop,
This review is from: Setting Up a Pottery Workshop (Paperback)
This book offers an excellent breakdown of all the issues that should be addressed if you are planning to set up a pottery workshop, or for someone wanting to make their operation more efficient. Mr. Young breaks down the issues such as planning out a use of space, what kinds of equipment you may find necessary, materials, types of kilns you may wish to implement, and even goes on to discuss marketing ideas and the financing of your operation; an absolute must for the beginning potter looking to set up a studio. If you plan on setting up your first studio or if you wish to compare your current operation to see how you might improve then I strongly recommend this book.
