My community studio has a couple of very old plaster reclaiming tables that are just not as absorbent as they used to be. Is there any way to revive these tables? Would sanding/shaving off the top layers make a difference? Is that even something you can do with plaster without it ending up in all the reclaim? Any and all suggestions are welcome! Thanks in advance!

So I have a plaster mold that has been used about 12 times,bit leakie but it works with extra precautions. After my last pour and opening I had these funky crystals show up on one side. I have been slow drying it between pours by a heater so dont know if this is the cause. Just wondering if this is normal for a large slip cast mold. Have to say it's rather pretty...

Hi, has anyone ever converted a woodworking lathe to make plaster models for casting? I'd like to try turning a few models in plaset, but reluctant to fork out £2.5k for the machinery. Curious to know if anyone has used a table-top woodworking lathe for this purpose and any tips on how to do it? Becca
