Busy Sunday

I had a grueling day of mold making today and completed 5,  2 part molds, each with multiple pieces inside.  Not a great way to enjoy a Sunday.  I didn't stop for pictures, just a minute to microwave my lunch.  Here is the final product.  They go in the dryer tomorrow.  I wanted to get them done before Monday since I will be up in De Pere tomorrow.

The five finished molds.  Will clean them up tomorrow

Kohler Day 2

Well, I have finished my second day and finished three molds.  Here are some images from today. These are Sun Koo's large tiles being poured. 

My first positives are ready and my molds complete after a long day.

This whole process took 3 times longer than I thought, but that is too be expected.
finally cleaned up

ready to go again
 I finished around 8:30pm, but not before saving one of the molds from a blow out.  I think I'll still with the boards even if it wastes plaster. Nobody likes a blow out!  The mold survived and I even poured the third section before I went home.
Saved from a blow out
Until tomorrow.
