Square Casserole Die with Blocker

This die extrudes three parts of a casserole dish: the walls, handles, and feet. The dish wall height is 3" (before firing).
This die works with the North Star 4" and TA Metal Works 4" square extruders.
To make a dish, 2' to 4' of wall is needed, but only ~6" of feet and handles. The included blocker is used to block off the handle and footer shapes. A recommended approach is to start with the blocker in place, extrude the needed length of walls, remove the blocker, and then extrude the needed length of handles and feet.
Using the blocker is optional. One can extrude all three shapes and recycle the excess handle and footer extrusions.
This design was originally made by Old Ash Artisans and is modified and reproduced here by permission. You can watch their YouTube video on how to use the die.
The blocker should be used on top of the extrusion die.
