I’ve spent a decent amount of time figuring out to make porcelain tile. The most reliable way to do so and avoid cracking is to use a plaster mold and push slabs of clay into it. Cookie cutter and other slab methods produce too much cracking without heavy duty equipment or maybe a different clay formulation (I’m using standard porcelain which isn’t the easiest material)

any results? What if I made delrin molds?

Plaster is better for ceramics because it helps to evenly dry the clay. Can use delrin to make a plaster mold though!
