A while back I collected quite a few molds for slip pouring. I helped a young lady dispose of her collection by moving them from her house to mine. There were originally a pickup truck full of them.
I’ve already culled through them once. The only think I’ve ever made from one fo the molds was a cup.
Recently, I’ve decided I will NEVER use many of the molds and I’ve started putting them into my trash bin.
I’ve kept a few I think I might use but wondered if there were any that ceramics might find useful.
I know this is a HUGE open ended question and I know that in the past storage space was at a premium so molds are not really practical to keep at DMS. This is why I started to dispose of them. Then my wife inquired about whether there were any holiday molds and so I’ve put a few back… Angels and Santa Clause for instance.
Lastly, If you like I can take pictures of the ones remaining and post them here. Generally, though before I did I just wanted to make sure it was worth it.
There seem to be a plethora of places that give molds away for free just to get rid of them.
Here’s just one example from our recent past:
I just don’t want to store them any more. I’ve already disposed of quite a few.
