Mudtools Ribs & Scrapers

The Mudtools Small Bowl Rib is designed to give as many radius sweeps on the clay as possible.  With a smaller curve in the front and bigger curve in the back, this is a workhorse of a rib.

Here is a rib that stands firm. Made of a heavier grade stainless steel, Mudtools Shape 7 Stainless Rib has less flexibility than some of the other ribs. The blunt end is good for carving away material or removing waste clay on the wheel.

Mudtools Shape 2 Stainless Rib is a workhorse for throwing, smoothing and compressing. In the Mudtools family, this shape is one of the firstborn.

The Mudtools Paisley Scraper proves itself indispensable for sculpting, shaping, and refining leather hard clay. We like to use the teeth to remove and shape clay and then follow up with a Polymer Rib to smooth and polish.
