Re: ATM How much dental plaster?




I'd probably take the whole thing down there and have him mix the plaster
and do the pour.
Note that I put the tiles in the plaster so don't forget to either use the
mold release that he uses or, if he doesn't use any mold release, either the
liquid hand soap or a food wrap plastic can be used.
I think that I use about a kilo. of plaster for a 10" but haven't really
measured for weight it so I really don't know.  A thickness of 1" is good
enough for a tool but more is better.  Like most doing artistic work I just
have a feel for the size of the tool that I need to make and the pan that I
use just gets filled to that level with plaster before pouring water into
it.
Good Luck!
