Learn how to turn your own plaster model on a plaster lathe and create a plaster mould from your turned model with ceramic designer Alex Allday at Middleport Pottery. You have the opportunity to create mould shapes for bowels, mugs/cups, tealight holders, pen pots, small vases and trinket dishes.
I now offer 1 to 1 plaster model and mould making workshops You will spend the morning learning how to turn your own plaster model on a plaster lathe which will then be used to make a mould from. After a lunch break you will then learn how to create a plaster mould from your turned model. Depending on time available you may be able to create 2 moulds from your model. Your plaster model and moulds will be yours to take away with you after the workshop. Your moulds will take a few days to dry out and once bone dry they will be ready for you to slip cast from. The workshop will run 10am – 4pm with a 1 hour lunch break. Cost £100 which includes all materials Please note that due to the time available the model you turn will need to be a simple shape for a drop out mould, eg cylinders and tapered shapes. The types of shapes you will be able to produce can be for bowels, mugs/cups, tealight holders, pen pots, small vases and trinket dishes. Due to the size of my lathe the maximum sizes of models that can be turned are 14cm wide x 24cm High approx See images of some shape examples.
