An introduction to all the mould-making techniques for casting glass, with detailed information on materials, recipes for mould mixes, methods and applications.

All glass makers - unless they are blowing glass - need moulds which can go in the kiln, as part of the process of creating new pieces. This book is your complete and essential reference to all mould-making techniques for casting glass, with detailed information on materials, recipes for mould mixes, methods and applications.

Mould Making for Glass helps you to find out which methods are appropriate for different types of work, and covers all the basics of how to make your mould. Discover practical information on sourcing, storing, using and recycling materials, and how to develop your own recipes and methods for particular projects. Finally, learn where to start with writing programmes for kiln firings including annealing and cooling and explore the work of well-known artists working in cast glass through beautiful photographs.
