Introduction

Layered veneers made on refractory dies would probably gain more popularity with ceramists if they knew a quick and easy technique for making the model. This course addresses that issue with a simple step-by-step procedure to fabricate the model without the need for special equipment or materials. This is a two-day course. The morning of the first students will complete a model and die system for refractory veneers on #8, 9. The afternoon and following day are spent fabricating the two veneers.
