Important

Before first use, powder your texture on both sides so that it no longer sticks. After use, you can wash it with soapy water.

Making a texture Impression with your Pasta Machine

Set your PM to its thickest setting. Slide your rubber stamp into the gap between the rollers.  Does it fit through easily with room to spare?  If yes,  you can use the PM to make your impression.  If the stamp does not drop easily through the gap, see below for manual impression instructions.

Next we need to determine what pasta machine thickness setting to use for the clay sheet. Experiment with a medium setting for the clay and the texture rolled together on the thickest setting of the pasta machine. The resulting clay sheet must not be too thin, and the pattern must not be distorted. Test until you get a satisfying textured clay sheet. Don't forget to use a release agent so that the clay won't stick on the rubber (spread talc with a brush, spray water, etc.)
