Have you used either of these? Easy slump? Or difficult? Got a picture of the final product?

Thanks!

It would help if you posted a photo of the molds.

I haven't used them but Bullseye recently released a new Quick Tip: Suggested Slumping Schedules. It lists suggested slumping schedules for all their molds.

I've had those molds for about 15yrs. They are an easy slump.. just use Bullseye suggested schedule.

@Dana:

Those tips are great help - thanks. Besides giving guidance for slumping a new mold, they allow me to parity check my schedules I've worked out independently over the last 5 years or so.
