As a K-12 Art Teacher for 30 years I am so impressed with your quick and well thought out videos. I especially like the 2-d paper additions . Very clever. Please keep teaching us more fun ways to be successful!

[@lisalang9835]

Your paper illustrations are particularly helpful. Really like how you "step 1, step 2..." Great video.

[@antoinettehalligan9044]

Why not put bottle top side (mouth) down, dug into clay square, wall up, and pour plaster in? Thanks. Excellent video. I am a beginner! 😊

[@TomTomLo1]

I was about to say how cute they are!

[@amariahisrael3356]

Yes I need to learn more about making mold

[@someoldguy383]

This helped a lot. I have a very complex shape to build a mold around and I'm having trouble visualizing how to deal with the undercuts. Not many videos cover this, so thanks!

[@m00nbang]

Thank you for making this video, it’s so easy to understand

[@sheilaestrada4361]

Great video !!!! I want to make a replica of my favorite mug and now I can!

[@kloudstrife5960]

You're legit af coming in clutch with more then I thought I would find out about slip molds in one video ! I make boro items for shops . I'm purchasing a new small kiln of Craigslist and it's being sold with all these forming molds / slip mold blocks .
My old kiln is good just some type of switch or contact issue , I need a medium size production kiln though right away . I have a dental micro kiln , it's the easy bake oven of kilns lol , it's getting me by also I can just make more quartz items . To make your own molds for ones self never occurred to me , seems incredibly useful .

[@ceramikamel3912]

Merci pour ce partage 🙏🏻 tout est super clair, pédagogique et explicatif…. Bravo pour ce tutoriel si bien réalisé et pour la qualité de ce qui y est démontré 🖐🏽🤗🤎

[@BulletTracer]

Outstanding teacher! Very well explained and visualized. You’re cute too. Great work! Thanks very much!

[@nelke.michael]

Thank you so much! This is very helpful! ☘️

[@someoldguy383]

The way you pour to avoid splashing and air bubbles (2:52) is genius. I'm about to make my first 4-part mold (top, bottom, and split middle section to deal with undercuts) to make a complex shape in urethane rubber, and your process for doing the 2nd part of your mold is exactly what I needed to know.

[@aesthetic_lover_here]

I always wondered how to make these moulds
Finally a good video ❤❤❤❤

[@0000Silversurfer0000]

Great video finally a woman who deals with mold making. Greetings from Germany.

[@michellecatania124]

[@iambradfordj]

[@encapsulated_nomad1359]

[@Momcat6]

[@subliminalforsuccess4596]

Just fantastic ❤❤❤👏👏👏

[@DChoi5815]

[@PatrickPaul1203]

That adjustable reusable box mold is nice. Need to make something like that for me

[@scottgray6276]

I’ve never seen anyone pouring the plaster over their fingers, for better control! Wonderful!!!

[@Cuckoo23]

Nice tutorial. Cute mould and cute smile. :) Very pro.

[@georgecoffin4453]

Sweet video! Hot tip, for making keys try chucking up a US quarter into a hand drill, works great on plaster.

[@meichan6905]

excellent demo video

[@masonhill326]

Omg thanks a lot, this really helped me 😀👍

Wow I'm using the pour technique to avoid bubbles!!!

[@eugeneaniar7232]

Niice thanks for this

[@Ingrained.]

you are the best

[@bridmu993]

This is an absolutely fantastic video!!! Just a quick question tho, what clay do you use ? 🙂

[@muhammadramadan8249]

thank you

[@AnLe-yg9ln]

thanks for video

[@jessicawoolard]

Thank you so much! Very helpful. I was wondering, do you buy or make the cottle boards?

[@ft7397]

Awsome

[@susieczellar4580]

Such great illustrations and you have a gift. Thank you for your time & videos. Would you use the same process to make a mold of a tabletop lamp? The bottom (base of the lamp) has a square, flat bottom, which is wider than the lamp. Also, can you use quick concrete in this mold, once it has cured?

[@jamesreilly2460]

Can you make a video of the type of clay that is best for slip casting? Maybe some tips and tricks about casting? Thank you!

[@alexandramascenon4052]

Hi! Love your videos! Did you use ceramic clay for your clay bed? Thank you!
