Industrial Slip Casting Table
Lehman Industrial Slip Casting Table: This Slip Casting Table is made for industrial-scale production with plaster slip casting molds. The open-top design is perfect for draining molds into. This is a large piece of equipment with a fiberglass tank that holds 30 gallons. The top is covered with dowels that can be removed individually. This also comes with a custom wood tabletop cover. Has a functioning mixing motor and slip-pump nozzle. This is the perfect piece of equipment for a large production studio. This is too big for our educational use at the college. It does not get used enough and is too large for our space. We are hoping it finds a home with a dedicated production slip caster. They don’t make tables this big anymore; smaller, newer ones sell for over 1500. Asking $1000.00.
