Description: "Dimensional Kiln Forming"
Well, Phil has come up with a whole set of advanced kiln forming techniques for this new 3-day class. The emphasis of this survey class is: studying new and diverse molds materials, specifics on how to get the best results from each and understanding the great variety of results that are unique to each specific material.

Project 1 – Using the Hi Aluminum mold mix, students will make and cast in glass an actual leaf using this incredible high detail mold mix.

Project 2 – Freeze and Fuse leafs

Project 3 – You will learn how to make a two part mold using RTV rubber. This is a great production process because the RTV molds can be cast over and over again.

Project 4 – Make a 3-D tile using Cast-o-Lot in combination with tree branches, leaves, frogs and lizards – oh my.
Project 5
Casting a Glass strawberry
Project 6
Reverse Kiln Casting.
With the execution of these six projects, you will learn to use different molds, investment materials, clays and rubbers. Complete firing and annealing schedules will be discussed along with informative and inspiring slide shows. We want to emphasize this is an intense advanced class that will keep you working for the full three days.
The "Cire perdue" method of sculpting will be used to create a 2" x 2" x 1" lost wax sculpture that can have undercuts and the finest details. Your detailed "sculpey clay" model will be cast into a two part rubber mold. Wax castings can be repeatedly formed from the rubber mold. The wax will be encased in a Cire perdue investment then steamed out so glass can be placed inside the mold and fired.

With the execution of these three projects, you will learn to use different molds, investment materials, clays and rubbers. Complete firing and annealing schedules will be discussed along with informative and inspiring slide shows. We want to emphasize this is an intense advanced class that will keep you working for the full three days




 
Projects Include:
  • Six projects, 1 is the Isenberg investment make a leaf. Two is freeze and fuse technique with mold making, Three is the use of rubber molds and wax to create three dimensional sculptures. Fourth is using Castalot investment to make a 3-Dimensional tile.Fi
