Probably the most famous potter online these days, his Youtube videos helped me understand throwing terms and techniques before I even touched clay. I really admire his work ethic as well, and his book is a great read. |

The good people at CMW have taught me almost everything I know about glaze chemistry. Their workshops and free resources are very high quality and thanks to them I have the confidence to make my own glazes and be sure that they are safe and durable. |
| Glazy | Glazy is another amazing resource that I don't know what I'd do without. It gives people all over the world a platform for sharing glaze formulas, plus incredibly powerful tools to reformulate and calculate recipes to suit your materials and predict their outcome. |
| Digitalfire | This is another resource for the potters who love to dive into the chemistry of ceramics and really know how things work. It has in-depth information about materials, firing schedules, troubleshooting, and glaze recipes. |
