Next step after rolling out the clay is to line up the templates and get as much out of one slab as possible. #clay #slab #ceramic #amacobrent #slabroller #template https://www.instagram.com/p/CoLjVSZrMzA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The forming of a slab. I’ve been working with my styrofoam cup molds this week. Since I like to have a multitude of pieces to work from today was all about making slabs and pressing them into my body molds for texture. This is the start of the process. Whom making a simple slab, I take it down to the final thickness in a series of steps, rotating the slab 90 degrees each step. My @amacobrent slab roller is a n oldie but goodie. It’s served me well for many years and fits my purposes. You don’t always need the latest and greatest tools to make your work. You just need to use what you have and work within it’s limitations. Sometimes working within limitations is challenging but forces us to be creative. Ok enough rambling time to go make something. #clay #pottery #slabroller #steps #ceramics #tools #art #artist #artteacher #colorblindartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CCd1s-oDwyG/?igshid=ykyntsuut818

Felt so good to get muddy- fifty pounds of fresh clay, rolled and drying for a bit. #slabroller #customtile (at Floyd County, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-VOmSRF0c_/?igshid=az1im3xwvdqw

Still can’t believe I get to have this in my studio. Sometimes the universe works in incredibly mysterious ways and I’m so grateful. And huge thanks to @eldave3000 for putting her together! #slabroller #fiona https://www.instagram.com/p/B4dyT65FSgo/?igshid=ezngpdc4n8vb

Great process and explanation. From @rentonbishopric_ceramics - I thought I would share with u some studio footage of the process I have used to make my latest run of #tableware for @fomobrewing on the #sunshinecoast These 'slump molds' were made a few months ago with the help of the wonderful @lizvidalceramics ! The first step is making a plate (that becomes the master) and then making multiple molded copies of that master using plaster. Once these have dried for a few weeks they are then sanded and cleaned up ready for use. To make these plate I first of all use my #slabroller #inthestudio to roll out large flat sheets of clay that the flat plates are cut from using a #template . These are left to dry a little while I #extrude the foot for the plate and press it into the #mold .Next the plate is #slumped into the mold, compressed and smoothed out and left to dry. Part#2 of this time lapse shows the plate coming out of this mold and being finished. #potterymaking #pottery #ceramics #wip #handmade #craft #art
