Ins and Outs of Mold Making for Kiln Formed Glass

Instructors: Ellen Abbott and Marc Leva August 23-27, 2010 Monday to Friday 10:00 am – 5:00 pm each day Cost: $975.00 Location: Oatka School of Glass, Batavia, NY Skill level: Intermediate to advanced, some glass experience very helpful. This class is for students who have taken a casting class and want to further develop their model and mold making skills will help a little. This will be a very hands-on workshop. Students will work on models and make reproduction and casting molds to take home. Students will get more out of the class if they come prepared with small objects they want to make reproduction molds of and ideas for models they want to construct. Students should also bring their own wax and clay carving tools if they have them and we recommend they purchase a basic set of dental type tools and other tools that will aid in the manipulation process. Only one mold will be cast in glass during this mold making intensive workshop.
