Found out that not everyone knew about this little gem even though it is listed in Bernard Leach's classic "The Potter's Book"from 1940.
Just get a tupperware or plastic tub from Wal-mart and put an inch or so of plaster in it. The plaster stays wet for a while but if you ever need it, just add a cup or so of water to keep everything in it wet for months.

Very Cool. I love styrofoam fish boxes for keeping pots damp until I can trim them, plastic containers with tight fitting lids work too, but the styrofoam is free - learned this in Japan when I lived there.

Great idea!
Nice! Ive used the tupperware box. . . but have never added the plaster. Great tip!
