How to make a PLASTER PRESS MOLD and How to use it

Hi everyone! in this video I show you how to make a plaster press mold. It's very easy and the resulting pieces are quite neat and professional, it's really worth it.
MATERIALS I USED:
-Plastic container
-Cooking oil
-Pottery plaster "Betalfa" (In case you can't get the one indicated you can use a common one, but the mold won't be as resistant)
-Water
-Clay (I used a low temperature clay formulated for modeling and throwing)
-Wood rolling pin
-Rods
-Rib
-Brush
-Sponge
-Spoon

Try adding gypsum to the water while stirring, there will be fewer lumps :)

[@Zoomfreaky]

Thank you! Loved this calm and beautiful video. Lovely instruction. Nice and neat bowl too. May I ask how you clean the plaster of your plastic mold and your spoon?

[@UmiCeramics]

Thank you ♥! Good question! I always clean my tools and plastic containers before the plaster dries, using water and washing detergent. You can also wait for it to dry completely to remove it, but in this way plastic containers and tools tend to get scratched and damaged

[@infochan8241]

omg i loved the video, im just starting and i want to ask where do you get those tools??

How long does clay last in the kiln?

[@begato28]

Muy buen video, gracias por compartir tu enseñanza. Usas yeso común, o yeso cerámico para moldes? Gracias de antemano.

[@UmiCeramics]

Hola! gracias! ♥ Usé yeso cerámico pero para este tipo de molde y tamaño chico se puede usar yeso común y no va a haber una diferencia notable

[@najifasdrawing]

[@freespirithippie6857]

Does it have to go in a kiln next? Love your channel.

[@melaninobsession5706]

If you don't mind me asking, where do you purchase your products from?

[@chandnijanardhan7017]

How long do you need to wait, before taking it off the mould?

[@Mattspuppetstudio]

İf i firmly press with a big spoon on the mold, would i get the shape of oval base of the spoon?

What is the difference between plaster and gypsum are they the same

[@crunchybeen4263]

Is there a good way to determine how much plaster you need to mix up?

[@vigatroiano8653]

Hello Umi, I love your videos! Your work with clay is truly inspiring. I’ve noticed the cloth you use on your table when rolling out clay and I’m curious about it. Could you share what type of cloth it is? It seems really useful for clay work. Thank you for sharing your amazing videos! 😊🙏🏼

[@UmiCeramics]

Ooh thank you so much! ❤️❤️ I use a very thin canvas, it has almost no texture. I've used this type of fabric for years and I like it because it doesn't leave visible marks on the clay and it's easy to wash and clean

[@NurDianaOfficial]

I was wondering do you sure kiln?

[@amechealle5918]

I know you are using regular clay, but would this technique also work for air dry clay?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi! I think it would work in the same way, but I'm not completely sure, it would be prudent to test previously if the air dry clay does not stick to the plaster

[@MabruBlack]

It would work but you have to seal the plaster with resin or something similar. Plaster is porous, so the air dry clay will stick unless is sealed. Once sealed, you should use some mold release agent and you’ll be good to go.

[@arpitarpanchali]

Nice tutorial 👍👍👍

[@user-ez6ir1rq7k]

Please tell how to make a box😊😊

[@ruchidhish4454]

Hii... Doesn't this needs firing to make it tough?? And if not then which clay are you using so that it doesn't need to fire? 🤔

[@wiki3139]

Pretty sure she used normal clay, not the air dry one so she is going to fire it later

[@christylee5545]

Your idea is so brilliant.....🧁

[@merlinkater7756]

Rubbing the rim on a wet surface is a smart one going to remember that

[@posezenyoga5244]

what surface do you use to roll out clay? Is that muslin?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi, it is canvas

Which type of clay you are using ?

[@xiaohanma2584]

what are you using to cover your table with? is it a canvas?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi, yes, it is canvas

[@xiaohanma2584]

@@UmiCeramics icic. Thanks for the reply!! 🤍

[@Sophie_519]

Just curious… Why can’t you have used to original bowl to form the clay? Was the plaster necessary?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi, to be able to use the original bowl you have to cover it with a cloth or plastic (so the clay does not stick to it) which leaves marks and deforms the final result. In addition, the plaster has the quality of absorbing water from the clay, making it possible for the piece to be hard in just a few minutes.

[@Sophie_519]

Never add water to plaster always add Plaster to water.

[@someonedumb_]

hey actually thanks for the info but could u please also tell why we shouldn't add water to the plaster ?

[@Hydrantchan]

​@@someonedumb_probably for the same reason you add dry to wet when baking: it prevents lumps of dry spots in your final mixture.

[@someonedumb_]

@@Hydrantchan ahh thanks a lot for helping! :D

[@ritauntitled4250]

Muito trabalho para pouco efeito

[@TruthIsNot4Sale]

Why wouldn’t you just roll out the clay and put over the plastic mold in the first place instead of making a clay mold of the same plastic mold to use?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi, clay sticks to plastic surfaces, that's why molds are made of plaster, or maybe wood! In addition, the porosity of the plaster absorbs the humidity of the clay and the piece dries in a matter of minutes
