Helpful wooden shaping tools for throwing pottery cups and bowls consistently

Great for surface decoration during pulling on the wheel.

Not great quality, they warp when they get wet.

The ribs are finished nicely on one side, with beveled edges and what seems to be sturdy strength. The other side is flat. They are thinner than they appear if one thinks both sides are the same.Unfortunately I throw pottery on a right handed wheel, which rotates counter clockwise. This means that in order to use the tools with this set up, I can only use the flat side; not the nicer beveled side when forming the foot of my pots.A left handed thrower would probably like these.Also, some of ribs are designed to shape small pots. Very small pots. They are hard to use on pots of different sizes because of the profile getting in the way.

These are terrible. After a couple of hours, I looked down and the rib had fully warped. My thumb was also hurting - like it was raw. I throw a lot, and have never had this happen - I finally realized it is because the thumb hole on this is a straight hard edge (no, those holes are not just for hanging ribs - they are part of the tool. Like wild. Do not buy these.

For the experienced potter these ribs are a lot of fun to experiment with. They give a variety of shapes. Great learning tools.

Great value for price. Good quality material

These are not great. They break easily especially because they get wet. Obviously, since they're made for pottery, they'd get wet!
