Right now I have some plaster molds out on the deck filled up with slip, so I’m killing time till I can drain them. I ended up opening a new bucket of slip because the old one just had too many clumps in it. I guess that will be my temp reclaim bucket till I get the seal on the table fixed. I had quite a few molds set up, ready to go, but then decided that hefting full plaster molds was probably not a good idea, at least until my shoulder is feeling better. “It’s always something!”
At any rate, I’ve mixed up some black mason stain into a jar of slip, as I’m itching to try slip painting with some sgraffito. I ‘m casting another ginger jar at the moment, and I think that will be my first “victim.”
My wheel is almost finished…Pete just has to mount the motor onto the table, mount the wheel, and away we go!
