You can use this die to make a butter dish. It extrudes the lid and base at the same time. It fits in the Bailey 5" square clay extruder.
Extrusion Dimensions: The butter dish lid extrusion is approximately 2 1/2" wide and 2 1/2" tall and the wall thickness is about 1/4". The base extrusion is approximately 3 1/2" wide and 1/4" thick.
Die Dimensions: The die is 5" x 6" and 1/4" thick.
The low wall around the top of the die prevents clay from oozing out sideways, as sometimes happens with square extruders.
The bracing prevents the die from bending under the stress of extrusion.
The cutter is optional. It cuts an endcap for the butter dish lid.
