Can we get a head count for how many are interested in making slip-cast molds? Materials will need to be purchased. I don't have anything to do the demo on, so whoever has a piece to be molded, please speak up. If we've got more than one, I'll demo on one of them, and the others can follow along as we go. Or you can all make your own and I'll just supervise.

Pieces to be molded can be made from sealed wood, oil clay, fired ceramic, or any other material that will not melt like the Wicked Witch of the West when water hits it.

Also, be aware of undercuts.

I'd like them to be the about the size of a mug to expediate time.

I would like to see some pictures of what is to be molded to check them over first, so either post 'em here, or PM me if your the shy type.

The mold making will probably take most of the day, so whoever is going to be involved will probably not get much chopping done.
