I have looked in the archive, but didn't find the answer I'm looking for. I have a Randall wheel and a mold for the plaster bats. I want to be able to throw on the bat and then let the piece dry on the bat some, and be able to just lift the piece off the bat - avoiding the wiring off. Is Gypsum #1 what I want for plaster for this type of bat?

Hello Carty
I would reccommend using No.1 Pottery plaster for your bats. I recently made
some and they work great. No. 1 pottery plaster is more absorbent that
Hudrocal or Hydrostone. Make sure you use the proper proportions of water to
plaster when mixing,
