    Vinegar is used to re-hydrate the clay without adding excess water which would cause the rim to expand and crack. It's often used to join handles to mugs and other such appendages in ceramics...We refer to it as Unicorn Pee because of its apparent magical properties! Hope that helps!

    @4jeanmyers If I am not mistaken he makes his molds. I *think* he had a few vids that showed how to make your own. Search using the terms "how to make a slipcasting mold" or "slip casting molds" and I bet you'll find the ones I saw, too. Good luck!

    Thanks for your teaching, but I'm more interested in how to prepare a good slip for my slip casting process. I don´t know why there are not videos to teach that to the artisans. The final product is a result regarding each earlier steps throughout the process. I don't know to learn about WHAT or HOW but WHY.
    ¡Thanks again!

  • @MisterFizz
    @MisterFizz 4 роки тому

    For the most common formulation of slip (no idea what that is), what is the density of the finished fired material? I'm asking for the density of a simple formulation without additives to achieve porosity. If there is a reference page of material properties you can suggest, please do.

    Wonderful video! Does anyone know if it's possible to do this with a cylindrical cup, instead of a cone? I mean, if the walls of the cup are parallel, will it come off the mold easily?

    • @theabristlebroom4378
      @theabristlebroom4378 2 роки тому

      It is unlikely to come cleanly out until it has dried to close to bone dry. This may work for you, but for most potter's would not like it that dry.

  • @sheilaplowman7878

    I should have also let it set in my mold a bit longer it broke coming out

    if you left this in the mold would it dry completely solid? and how long would that take? thank you

    • @patthebackyardbuilder421
      @patthebackyardbuilder421 5 років тому +1

      The clay shrinks as it dries. My guess is that if you let it dry until it was solid, then at some point the casting would crack.
      The reason for this is the item would dry from the outside to the inside and the drying would thus be uneven. This normally happens when you pour the item, but when the item is thin (because you pour out the excess slip) then the item is able to dry somewhat evenly, reducing the stress on the clay.

    • @nPcDrone
      @nPcDrone 4 роки тому

      I am fairly certain it mist be a plaster mold

    • @theabristlebroom4378
      @theabristlebroom4378 2 роки тому +1

      Not with clay. Plaster is used with clay to absorb the water in the clay, drying it. Wood can pull some water out, but not enough and it is slow. Foam would not absorb water, so that is right out.

      @lauravanwensveen7951 6 років тому

      it should, as long as the bottom of the cup isn't fatter than the top, or the cup will be trapped within the mold.

      @theabristlebroom4378 2 роки тому

      They aren't hard to make, there are lots of videos on you tube detailing the process. Find an oversized cup that you like the shape of and use that to make your own molds.

      Pure vinegar. It softens the clay. Water would make it crack.

    Where is the handmade element to slipcasting pottery?

    • @WantingMemoriesLJM
      @WantingMemoriesLJM 8 років тому +9

      +stephen ryan Well, often the potter has constructed the original piece from which the mold is made. Many who sell their work, find that they can mark down prices significantly on cast pieces, especially compared with slab built boxes or rectangles, and so they can successfully sell more. Additionally, what if the cup isn't the emphasis? What if the artist includes decoration that takes hours such as piercing, sculpting, or fine glaze techniques? This all adds up in time put into a piece, which means a higher cost in sales...

    • @stephenryan1732
      @stephenryan1732 8 років тому +1

      Thank you for answering my question so well! I now look at slipcasting in a new way although I still prefer throwing!!! You just can't beat throwing!!!

    • @WantingMemoriesLJM
      @WantingMemoriesLJM 8 років тому

      +stephen ryan Agreed! and throwing can be very time efficient. I like slip casting in places of slab building, but prefer all other hand building techniques over it. :)
