The tools are designed for specific functions in pottery making: the Wire Clay Cutter and Steel Scraper are useful for shaping and trimming clay, the Potter’s Rib can smooth surfaces, and various knives and tools in other kits are intended for detailed sculpting and intricate work on clay.
 
 

 

What is the best tool to create designs in the clay?

It depends what kind of details you’re looking to create! If you want to create fine details, we recommend using a needle pointer tool or a stylus tool. You can also use modelling knives and craving blades to create textures and details. 

 

How do I clean clay sculpting tools?

The best way to clean your tools is by washing them off with water and leaving them out to fully air dry. To increase the life of your tools and prevent rinsing and cracking, we recommend lightly coating them with linseed oil.
