GeorgiaBowles Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I'm just setting up making tableware, and I can't for the life of me find my notes on slip casting! I was wondering if anyone could recommend the best casting slip to use when creating tableware with a textured outer surface? I think I used white earthenware before but I'm unsure as it's been a while. Any advice given on this subject would be very appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The talc used to be a Tennessee ball talc, but that source ran out and mow the talc comes from Texas and is much flakier and less slippery. It tends to settle out in the bucket much faster than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
