Benefits of Using Clay Dies for Sculpturing

Video Transcript

"Hello. I am Chitrotpola Mukherjee from Oxpace India and I'm talking on behalf of Expert Village. I would like to show you how we work with liquid clay that I have mentioned, and how a dice is made. Now when we are using dice, the convenience of making a dice is that we don't have to do each one, each item separately. We make a dice, and then you put liquid clay, and we can use it over and over again to produce many numbers without having to do them individually. Sometimes it's not only to make it malleable and dilute, the molded face or the molded part or molded design, then you make it liquidy and you use it to make a mold and you put it in the mold and it gradually dries. This is a dice. This thing is made out of plaster of Paris. Plaster of Paris has the characteristic of absorbing water very quickly. So first we have to make this and then we put the imprint of whatever shape we want. After that, after the imprint has come on the dice, it takes a little time to dry. You have seen the dice and the cover. Now you put the cover and the dice together and you see that there is this little hole over here, so you tie the two completely and tie it up tight and then pour the liquid clay through the hole. And then you leave it for it to dry. Our dice is ready for drying. Thank You."
