In this video I cover the basics of my slip casting process. I take my mixed up slip and pour it into my plaster molds. (See my other videos on how I make my slip and my molds). The slip sits for a while and the plaster absorbs the water from the slip. In the process of doing so a pot is formed against the plaster. Once the wall thickness is large enough, the rest of the slip is poured out. The pot and mold then sit for a while longer. At this point the plaster continues to draw water out of the clay and the pot firms up. Once enough water is absorbed, the pot releases from the plaster and it can be pulled out. At this point it is just like any other pot! You can let it dry to leather hard and trim it. Once it is bone dry you and bisque, glaze and then do the glaze firing!
