Amazing video and very helpful. Just made the same using your instructions and I'm enjoying reading your book too.

Hi Kara, I've made my own wedging board thanks to your tutorial here. I'm waiting for it to set. In the meantime I want to know which side you use to do the wedging. The bottom has feet thanks to the plastic box and the top isn't 100% smooth thanks to tiny bubbles that rise to the surface just before it goes hard.

I'd use the smoother side, but it's your call. Why not try both? Maybe try sand the feet off?

Amazing thank you

I made one of these and all is well, thank you for the instructions!
However, it moves all the time when I wedge, which is very difficult. Any ideas on how you stabilise yours? I’m thinking of adding a non stick mat under it, but thought I’d check with the community first 😊

[@KaraLeighFordCeramics]

A non-stick matt could work. You could also use a damp tea towel underneath to stop it moving.

Hi! Do you have a link to where you bought the plaster in its powdered form?

There are lots of bubbles and dots of dish soap coming to the top. Maybe my brand dish soap wasn’t the best choice to use as a release agent. 🤷‍♀️
