The first tool in the Seamless Form System, the Seamless Cover - Round 9.5 + 11, fits perfectly over the combination of GR Pottery Forms Circle 9.5” stacked on top of GR Pottery Forms Circle 11”. This combination is routinely used to make pie plates and other large round platters.
By placing the Seamless Cover - Round 9.5 + 11 over your stacked 9.5” + 11” round forms, you are provided a smooth surface that prevents the unsightly, and challenging to cure, lines, ridges and imperfections that appear in the clay as a result of the ‘seams’ between the stacked forms.

**We recommend bisque firing SLOW speed between ^06 and ^04 and always SLOW speed glaze firing. If you are having trouble getting some brands of commercial glazes to not pinhole you can always try bisque firing to ^03. If you are using Mudworks glazes exclusively you only need to bisque to ^06 unless you prefer a higher bisque.
