Moldmaking

Tumblers

Yesterday was awash in a flurry of plaster as here in the studio as we turned two models on the plaster lathe and fabrication four molds for our new tumblers. We are just waiting for them to cure and we can get casting! It takes several days of waiting for the plaster to fully cure and completely dry out before one can use the molds. This wait is always full of impatience.
Below is the model for our tumbler, turned to match our series of nesting cups. The tumbler is based on the smaller cup, but much taller.
