The Key to Perfect Fluting

Finally, a fluting tool that actually works! This metal tool has two cutting arcs for two sizes of curve. The cutting arcs are recessed from the body of the tool so the cut clay doesn't get in your way.

New Mud Ribs!

The Big Boom ($14.00 ea) The same shape as the original first boomerang ribs but larger, great for when you're working on those really large projects. They're not just for bowls: try them for other large forms too. Only available in Firm (green) and Soft (Yellow) so far.

Platter Mud Ribs The same "plastic Cadillac" material that has made Mud Ribs so popular, now in a large size with a gradual curve for plates and platters. The large PRL measures 11-1/4" long, and the smaller PRS measures 7-1/2".

Boomerang Ribs: The Boomerib ($8.00 ea) Mike Sherrill officially calls it a "small bowl rib," but we like "boomerang rib" better... and we've nicknamed it the Boomerib. No matter what you call it, this is a great rib for working the inside surfaces of small to medium sized bowls. You can use different parts of the curve for bowls of varying width and depth.

The Bump

The Bump is made with a solid aluminum shaft that is bendable but not flexible. The sponge end is a very dense layered material that becomes like chamois when wet, and has a hard ball under that surface. The whole thing is designed to allow for great leverage to move clay in those tricky places that you can't reach with your hands. BAT • $24.99 Qty:
