Amoxtli The Deckle and Mold

thingiverse

There are four essential components total: 1 Deckle Corner, 1 Deckle, 1 Mold Corner, 1 Mold. Each segment measures 3 inches long and can be combined to create large sheets of paper. I strongly advise purchasing an aluminum screen roll from your local hardware store to attach to the Deckle for making paper. Historically, paper has been produced from mulberry, flax, rice or other plant fibers that are mechanically separated, mixed with water and then poured into a mold. If you don't see a file available, it's likely because I'm still working on it. A highly recommended book on paper-making in the Americas is: http://www.survivorlibrary.com/library/the_aztec_and_maya_papermakers_1944.pdf
