I want to endorse the products put out by Pure and Simple. The plastic =
molds from which plaster drape or press molds can be made are fantastic. =
I have about 10 different plastic master molds and just ordered a =
couple more. I find them a valuable teaching tool.=20
I do a project with my Ceramics II class which I call "Working With =
Multiples of the Same Form." One possible creative exercise is to cast =
a series of plaster drape molds and then create an identical series of =
plates/platters using the same clay, glaze, and decoration. One =
objective is for the student to experience repetitive making as a =
strategy for producing pottery.
They alway have advertisements in CM and now have a website =

I also like the Pure and Simple Slump/Hump molds. I'm considering trying

Thanks, Annie
