Sculpture & modelling tools
Modelling, smoothing, finishing and precision tools for working with clay, modelling materials and wood.
A compact selection for shaping forms, correcting surfaces, smoothing joins, refining details and carving wood.
CHOOSING YOUR TOOLS
One action, one type of tool.
Modelling tools do not all do the same job. Some shape the material, others smooth a join, remove a small excess or refine a detail. Choosing according to the action is more useful than accumulating tools.
Smooth
Flexible silicone tips soften marks, round an edge and smooth a join without cutting sharply into the material.
Refine & finish
A rigid finishing or precision tool helps clean an edge, remove a small excess and work on details once the form is established.
Carve wood
Wood requires cutting tools rather than modelling tools. Work with short controlled cuts and follow the grain instead of forcing the blade.
Simple rule : Start with the task: shaping, smoothing, correcting or carving. Then choose the tool that performs that action.
