B300 Fluted Drop-Thru Mold Bundle

Description

Create a Dramatic Footed Vase with a Fluted Rim using this 3-Piece Drop-Thru Mold that Automatically Aligns the Drop to the Center of a Wine-Glass Style Foot

This innovative Drop-Thru Mold Forming System enables fusers to create a delicate vase shape in a kiln that is remarkably similar to vessels made using traditional glass blowing techniques.

This mold system consists of 3 ceramic components:

• The C100 Foot Casting Mold: used to create a 2 7/8” (73 mm) diameter x 1/4” (64 mm) thick cast glass foot disk using our ‘Scrap Casting’ technique.
• The DT305 Fluted Drop-Thru Ring: to shape the vase and guide the drop onto the cast foot disk.
• The DT301 Tripod Base: to support the Drop-Thru Ring while holding and centering the cast foot disk.

The mold is 7 3/4” (19.7 cm) wide by 4 3/4” (12 cm) high and can be used in most medium-sized kilns with a firing chamber that is at least 10” (25.5 cm) in diameter (or square) and 5 1/2” (14 cm) high.

The Drop-Thru mold is height adjustable, simply turn the ring 1/3 of a revolution to re-position it at 3 different levels to create 3 distinct Drop-Thru vase heights.

• Highest Position – Creates a vase 4 5/8” (11.7 cm) High
• Middle Position – Creates a vase 4 1/8” (10.5 cm) High
• Lowest Position – Creates a vase 3 1/2” (9 cm) High

You can purchase all 3 Drop-Thru mold components in one complete bundle, called the B300 Fluted Drop-Thru Mold Bundle or you can purchase any of the components separately. If you already have a Circle-Square Drop-Thru Mold Bundle you would only need to purchase the Fluted Ring, since the Foot Casting Mold and the Tripod Base are interchangeable.

The B300 Drop-Thru Bundle contains:

• DT301 Tripod Base
• C100 Foot Casting Mold
• DT302 Fluted Drop-Thru Ring
• A 4 page Instructional Booklet
