Re: New pot mould system
Thanks for the kind words Pat and Thymetraveller. I am debating , should I make many or a limited series from each mould ? If a limited series , how many ? Would appreciate opinions .

Re: New pot mould system
Looking the goods!
Will you be putting the same texture on the inside of the pot? Not all the way through just at the top? Looks like you may have I just can't see it properly in the photo.
Well done mate, looking forward to seeing the others.

Re: New pot mould system
Not glazed yet Sue , not even air dry when the picture was taken . Next step is to bisque to 1000 C and then glaze ( probably oxides ) then to 1280 C . Opinion on limited series , or as many as I can make ?

Re: New pot mould system
I think limited series, but the number depends on your definition of "limited".

Re: New pot mould system
Limited series- we do not all want the same pots - but are always looking for the perfect pot for "that' bonsai.Unless of course you are planning on supplying a retailer - then different parameters apply.
