How to Use
- Roll out a slab of clay, compress surface.
- Cut the clay using the outer frame.
- Place the slab onto a piece of foam and cover it with plastic.
- Use the outer frame to help align and center the inner press before pressing it into the clay to form the rim.
The foam allows the clay to move naturally, creating a smooth, even profile without stretching or tearing.
Choosing Your Options
This listing uses product variants.
Before adding the item to your cart, make sure you have selected:
- ✔ Base Set
- ✔ At least one Border Set
The Base Set and Border Sets are sold separately, so you’ll need both to create a complete plate press. You can also select the bundle that comes with the base set and all border sets!
Notes
- Each mold is 3D printed, so slight layer lines or minor surface variations are normal and do not affect performance.
- Final plate dimensions may vary slightly depending on your clay body, slab thickness, forming method, and firing shrinkage.
- Please note that the petals can be difficult to work with as they are more likely to crack. To reduce cracking, do not stack until after bisque, do not put excess pressure on petals, compress slab thoroughly, dry slowly
