Shape 2 was the firstborn in the Mudtools family of tools. The Shape 2 Rib is a remake of Michael's favorite old rib and is a workhorse for throwing, smoothing and compressing.
All of our polymer ribs are made of unique flexible materials that are resistant to wear and the formation of burrs. We've found that with general use these ribs become burnished over time. this polymer rib shape is available in the following flexibility options:
 
Whether throwing clay on the wheel, hand-building or sculpting, the pottery rib is a classic and essential tool. It acts as an extension of the potter's hand to create shapes and surfaces that fingers alone can't achieve.
We believe our tools should not only function well, but should be a joy to use as well as pleasant to look at. Whatever you want to make, Mudtools has you covered.
Shape 2 is also available in stainless steel.
