Whether you are throwing clay on the wheel, hand building or sculpting, these ribs quickly become a go-to for many ceramists.
Shape 5: The same traditional kidney-shape as Shapes 0 & 1, only bigger. It offers more surface coverage, making it great for smoothing a slab of clay.
Mudtools Workhorse Mudsponge
Mudtools sponges are made of a biodegradable and environmentally friendly material that is incredibly durable. Your Mudsponge comes to you compressed for economy of space and for the fun of watching them expand when introduced to water.
The Blue Workhorse is a great all-purpose sponge made of an open cell material that is very absorbent. We’ve shaped it like a potters rib to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. Dyed with a natural pigment, the color will fade with use.
The White Finishing Sponge is made with a tight-cell material and is less absorbent than the Blue Workhorse. It is excellent for finishing work, final detail and clean-up of surfaces and won’t pull out grog or other materials in the clay body. Think of it like a chamois sponge.
The Orange Absorbent is the perfect throwing sponge. More absorbent than the White Finishing and the Blue Workhorse.
