Making Molds
Wednesday, July 14, 2010 at 9:36PM
This video quickly shows a couple things I got started on today so that I could make some rectangular slab dishes. I'm not sure either one is going to be that successful. I do have one more idea that I'll get on to tomorrow. For now though here's the clip...

Just to clarify. The clay mold is solid right now. After I refine the shape I'll hollow it out and bisque fire it so that I can drape a slab over it to form the dish. The wooden mold, once finished, will have a slab draped over it to make the dish.

coolies, ta mr ron love those big dishes it's such a nice space to deco..
Great video and ideas for molds; Pioneer Potter sounds like a good book, one I haven't seen I'll have to see if I can find it.
Yep that's the idea Ang, more deco space and a shape that's different.
Linda, Pioneer Pottery was recently reprinted, it's a classic.
hi ron, looks like a fun project... you are so industrious
great chickens!
