Follow these steps for slip casting into your dry mould.

Step 1

Remember to secure two or three piece moulds with rubber mould bands or Duck tape.

Step 2

Fill your jug with slip from the bucket. [It is handy to have two jugs if possible then you can move the mould easily onto an empty jug when drained.]

Step 3

Slowly pour the slip into the mould until it reaches the very top.

Pour any unwanted casting slip back into the bucket, [as the slip can be used by other students]. Saving slip is an important and sustainable way to work.

Step 4
Leave the mould full for approximately 15 minutes, allowing the shell to form. (The time can later be adjusted if you find your finished product is too thick or too thin.) Aim for a wall thickness of 3mm, this is an industry standard.

Step 5

Turn the mould upside down gently and pour away the slip into a jug. Do not shake the slip out of the mould. Leave the mould upside down for 15 minutes resting on a wooden baton.

Please do not leave slip under moulds in jugs as we will soon run out and this is wasteful.

Step 6

Turn your mould the right way up and leave for at least an hour. Consider leaving for 2-3 hours as you do some sketchbook work, this is not a problem as your cast will become firmer the longer you leave.

Your cast will then separate from the mould. It will be safe to remove and strong enough to handle.

Step 7

Manipulate by cutting. Create holes by piercing. Create textures by gently embossing. Try carving into the surface carefully or leave smooth. Try squashing the cast gently to change the form. Finish off by smoothing with a damp sponge. Remember the cast will shrink by 10% in the firing if you need to attach another material eg: a handle, you should calculate.

Step 8

If you want to attach two slip cast forms together, you must cast at the same time, you cannot attach a dry cast to a wet cast, ask Kathleen or Beatrice to help you with this or look at the video below.

Step 9

Please only fire successful pieces. Photograph experiments for your process sheets and recycle after documenting.

Step 10

Place in the allocated area to dry completely before firing.

Crockery
2012
Fine bone china tableware made in Staffordshire, England
Various dimensions
Produced by 1882 Ltd

A collection of fine bone china tableware slip-cast from plaster models carved by hand, with glazed interior for functionality and raw exterior reflecting the modest surface texture of the plaster original.

The process of slip-casting begins with the creation of a three-dimensional model of the design known as a 'master' by a professional model-maker, from which the production mould is cast. Crockery bypasses this process by placing the responsibility of both designer and model-maker in the hands of Max Lamb. Using the tools of a stone mason Lamb chips and carves a solid block of plaster to make a jug, bowl
or mug, the design of each formed quite simply out of their own making.

From the 'master' one or more plaster production moulds can be made, often consisting of three or more parts to enable the cast to be safely removed in one piece. Crockery is now ready for casting in fine bone china.

Fine bone china contains 52% calcined animal bone which gives it incredible strength and translucency, 25% china clay from Cornwall for its perfect whiteness, 3% ball clay from Devon and Dorset which provides plasticity, and a flux such as nepheline syenite or feldspar which allows the china to be fired at a lower temperature.

The dry materials are mixed with water in a blunger to make a liquid clay body known as slip, which is then filter pressed and put back into the blunger to gain more weight ready for casting.

The slip is hand-poured into each of the plaster moulds and rotated or tapped to ensure no air is trapped. The plaster absorbs water from the slip and a layer of clay forms on the inside cavity of the mould. After 10-15 minutes the excess slip is poured away and the remaining clay starts to dry. When the cast has contracted sufficiently it is carefully removed from the mould, 'fettled' or trimmed by hand to remove the moulding lines and left to dry naturally.

The 'greenware' cast is then fired on a fifteen hour cycle, reaching in excess of 1200 degrees centigrade where it is soaked at peak temperature for 30-40 minutes. During the firing process the piece contracts a further 14%. Each piece is then glazed internally and re-fired at a temperature of 1000 degrees centigrade, the exterior being left with a natural bisque finish.

Crockery is now ready for service.

Ceramic is a broad category which includes earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain.

White Earthenware is a versatile clay with a smooth texture and fires to white. The strength of greenware [unfired] makes fettling [finishing] easy. This clay is stable the firing and tends not to warp. We use white earthenware for the Hollow Project.

Stoneware is a type of ceramic. Earthenware is pottery that has been fired at relatively low temperatures. Although earthenware has a thicker and more rustic look, it is not as strong or as durable as stoneware.

Terracotta is also an earthenware clay and is made out of a fairly coarse, porous type of clay that is high in iron oxides. Terracotta clay is known for it's beautiful red colour.

Porcelain is a ceramic material made by heating clay-type materials to high temperatures. It includes clay in the form of kaolinite. Porcelain is a creamy colour.

Bone china is a type of vitreous, translucent material. It has been defined as ware with a translucent body. Bone china is pure white.
