DESCRIPTION:
--Patty Osborne, Potters Guild of BC Newsletter. In Extruder, Mold and Tile: Forming Techniques there are many non-obvious ways to use techniques to create architectural, sculptural, or functional work. These are just two of the techniques described in this useful book, along with using drywall to keep clay tiles from warping; how to make extruder dies out of a plastic cutting board, plywood, sheet metal or plexiglass; step-by-step instructions for making plaster; and examples of plaster and clay moulds. --Sumi von DassowThanks to Extruder, Mold & Tile, I've found a use for that roll of tarpaper that's been sitting in my shed for the past few
