The wonders of slip casting


Although not perfect my mold works and I was able to cast a set of mugs. Next time I make a mold I’m going to make sure that the cast piece will come out with a lot more ease. I’m going to make the original price bigger to compensate for how much they shrink, because the clay has already shrunk when I make the mold, the casts are going to shrink again and you end up with very small mugs.
