To clean and store molds used in slip casting, I usually rinse them out with water and then scrub them with a soft brush to remove any remaining clay residue. Then I let them air dry completely before storing them in a cool, dry place to prevent any mold growth. Easy peasy!

No matter what type of bisque you are making, it is important to adjust the ingredients to ensure that the flavors are balanced and the texture is correct. If you are unsure of how to adjust the ingredients, you can always consult a recipe or ask a professional for advice.

If you're looking for a more lightweight option, hollow legs with a metal rod inserted after firing could be a good option. This will help to reduce the weight of the legs while still providing enough strength to support the glass top. If you're looking for a more traditional option, solid ceramic legs could be a good choice. Solid ceramic legs are usually thicker and heavier than hollow legs, but they can provide more stability and strength. You'll want to make sure that the legs are thick enough to support the weight of the glass top, so you may want to consider using a thicker clay or adding extra layers of clay to the legs.

The short answer to this question is yes, glazes specified for whiteware/porcelain can be used on stoneware. However, it is important to note that the results may vary depending on the type of glaze and the type of stoneware.

Otherwise you might be better off training people under you to bulk produce pieces but of course, they're not going to do it like you do or perfect so that's soemthing you'll have to come to terms with
