March 5, 2010, Newsletter Issue #385: Adding plaster(start)

Tip of the Week

Using a cup or scoop, start adding plaster to the water. Sprinkle the plaster out evenly over the whole surface of the water. You donīt have to be in a big hurry, but donīt work too slowly or the plaster will start to set. Some people prefer to sift the plaster into the water. At first the plaster will sit on the surface of the water very briefly before it disappears beneath the surface of the water. (This is called "slaking".)
