After touring the castle town of Sasayama, we drove to the electric pottery wheel experience. We were a bit rushed as we were close to our reservation time, but we were able to use the restroom, and the experience began. The four of us, a couple doing hand-throwing and my child and I, all challenged ourselves to make tea bowls. The electric pottery wheel experience ended surprisingly quickly, but it was a fun experience. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished products.
篠山城下町観光の後 電動ろくろ体験に車でむかいました。予約時間ギリギリになり焦りましたがトイレもお借りすることもでき体験が始まりました。手煉体験のカップルと私たち親子の4人ともお茶碗に挑戦でした。電動ろくろは意外に早く終わってびっくりでしたが楽しい体験でした。出来上がりが楽しみです。
近くに似た名前の窯元があるので間違えそうになりました。しっかり確認して下さいね。

Despite the unfortunate light rain, my spouse and I headed to the "Marumatsu Kiln" in Tanba Tachikui for a pottery wheel experience. Living in Kobe, we had previously visited Tachikui several times to see the climbing kilns and purchase pottery, but this was our first attempt at the wheel experience.
The pottery wheel workshop, facing the prefectural road in Shita Tachikui, is a large kiln with well-maintained equipment and tools, creating a bright working environment that left a good impression. The owner provided detailed explanations of the work procedures and important points to note during the wheel work, and the clear technical guidance was very helpful.
The owner is also familiar with a nearby golf course, which made for a fun pottery session filled with golf discussions. We enjoyed discussing color options, and we are looking forward to seeing the finished pieces after firing.
Additionally, on our way back, we were introduced to the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Ceramic Art, and we were able to enjoy wonderful exhibits with the admission tickets we received. It's only about a five-minute drive away, and I highly recommend stopping by to learn about history while viewing valuable pottery exhibits from the Muromachi period onward.
However, since it was Tuesday, the surrounding restaurants (like soba shops) were closed, which was the only disappointing aspect of the day.
生憎の小雨模様の中、丹波立杭にある「まるまつ窯」のろくろ体験に夫婦で出向きました。神戸在住の為、予てより立杭焼の登り窯見学や陶器類購入に過去に何度か出かけてましたが、今回 ろくろ体験に初挑戦しました。
下立杭の県道に面したろくろ体験作業場は大きな窯元で、設備、道具類も整備され明るい作業環境で良い印象を受けました。
ご主人に丁寧な作業手順やろくろ作業時の注意事項など具体的に説明受けし、分かり易い技術指導はとても助かりました。
ご主人は近くのゴルフ場も良くご存知で、ゴルフ談義しながらの楽しいろくろ作業ともなりました。
彩色の相談も楽しく進められて、後日の焼き上がりが楽しみです。
又、帰りに兵庫県の陶芸美術館を紹介され、頂いた入場券で素晴らしい展示品も楽しむことが出来ました。車で5分位の場所であり、是非 立ち寄りされたら、室町時代以降の貴重な焼物展示品を見ながら歴史勉強になると思います。
尚、当日が火曜でので、周りの飲食店(蕎麦屋など)は休業日で、この点だけが残念でした。

From start to finish, I received thorough guidance, and even as a beginner and someone clumsy, I was able to create the plate I had envisioned! I was very happy to have such a wonderful experience locally! I would love to come back and make more!
最初から最後まで丁寧に教えて頂き、初心者且つ不器用な私でも、思っていたようなお皿を作ることができました!
地元でこんなに素敵な体験ができ、とても嬉しかったです!
また作りに伺いたいと思います!

There is a kiln with a similar name nearby, so I almost got confused. Please make sure to check carefully.
