USING THE HAND
SCULPTURE METHOD |
PRODUCT DESIGN The Horizontal Template Method |
||
|
|
The method is similar to vertical turning. It is impossible, though, to turn a plate, a bowl, a cup using the vertical template method. The process starts on a flat surface with a solid center axis to determine the centre. A 'sleigh' is used to hold the template and also spins around the center pole to form the 'inside' of the plate. Mix the plaster and allow to 'sit' around the pole. Then attach the template to 'sleigh' and make two or three revolutions to form the inside of the plate. Put mold release on the newly turned plate. Mix another batch of plaster. Insert the 'outside' template of the plate in the sleigh, and turn two or three revolutions. The plate has now been formed and simply remove. |
