I work with potters, ceramic artists, pottery studios, Etsy sellers, and small manufacturers who need reliable molds for functional and decorative ceramics. Every design is created with production in mind focusing on precision, durability, and efficient casting rather than just appearance.

FAQ
What information do you need to start my ceramic mold project?
To begin, please send your sketch, reference photos, dimensions, or existing 3D model. If you have a specific clay body or shrinkage percentage, include that as well. I'll design a custom plaster mold optimized for ceramic slip casting, ensuring the mold matches your production requirements.
Can you design multi-part plaster molds for complex ceramic shapes?
Yes. I specialize in two-part and multi-part plaster molds for mugs, bowls, vases, planters, figurines, and other complex ceramic pieces. Each mold is designed with proper parting lines, registration keys, and easy demolding to achieve clean, repeatable slip casting results.
What files will I receive with my order?
Depending on your package, you'll receive STL, STEP, OBJ, or other requested CAD formats. Every 3D printable master mold is prepared for manufacturing and includes optimized geometry. I can also provide assembly guidance and printing recommendations when needed.
Are your mold designs ready for production and repeated slip casting?
Yes. Every ceramic mold design is created with production in mind. I consider shrinkage compensation, mold alignment, structural strength, and casting performance to help you produce consistent, high-quality ceramic pieces for personal projects or commercial production.
