missholly Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 im pouring a semi-large native american pot mold. the first time i poured it, it had collapsed inside. peeled off the sides, and caved in on itself. i thought it might be because i was having issues with the thickness of my slip. i thinned down the slip, poured it again, vase came out fine. i poured it again the other day, let it sit for about a day and a half, which worked before, and it caved in again. i dont understand whats going on. for some reason, its not sticking to the mold until it gets hard enough to exist on its own?

icyone Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Are you leaving it upside down after dumping it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icyone Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Maybe try misting or pre wetting the mold somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
