This is my favorite tv show! I just love watching what the contestants come up with, how they help each other and grow to be a clay family! I take note of all the challenges and hope to complete some of the projects too. I wish there was a similar competition closer to home haha.

I will look into this filament as it sounds interesting to use. I'm not sure that the lines are a big issue for ceramics though. There is a certain amount of smoothing that occurs with glazing etc, but it would be interesting to try for sure. My issue with stamps so far is more in my design. I did not make some of the forms as deep or crisp as I needed, so I'm still working on refining my 3D models before they get printed. I'm sure it can be done. I have to just tweak some settings in trial and error. I would also love to see more of your daughter's work. I've visited Moore Coll

I'm a 3D modeler and I just started making some small stamps to use on my pottery. I'm still pretty new to everything, but I hope to utilize 3D printing more too. Stamps Image I also think there is a place for 3D modeling/printing in the art world. It's not so "easy" as just pushing a button to print things. Modeling can take an incredible amount of time like any other art form. Printing takes long enough that no one would produce more than a small limited run of any one item. I haven't printed ceramics, but I think there's enough errors in printing and then glazing that it would be

@Bill Kielb Thank you for the great info! I will have to give the sprayer a try and report back how it goes. I do have a respirator as well so I would be safe from over spray, but I will take care to make sure anyone else is out of range. I will look into other spray booth options for my shed too.

I have a Wagner Control Spray 250 Handheld HVLP Paint Sprayer from lowes : Sprayer Link This kind of gun is okay to use for glazing? I don't want to get one of those large compressors if I don't have to. I'm still pretty new to ceramics, and I hope to make my own studio out of my back yard shed. Also what about ventilation? Do I need a booth or is it acceptable to spray outside?
