For the slip casting process a mould has to be made and for that, a shape has to be created. Using plaster and a lathe machine we fashioned our first ‘chimney pot’ which is basic to say the least
Our plaster mix needed some refining but it proved adequate
The mould building process in progress
Although a rather cumbersome mould, it produced the first cast which we cast using white earthenware as a test as we are still working on our ‘Tottenham Clay Recipe’
