Very easy to use

Very easy to use the rib and get perfect shaped bowls. I am using 2 pounds of clay for a cereal bowl. Hope this tool will last a while

Great quality!

I’ve only gotten to use it a few times but it creates great texture! And all the tools I’ve ordered from stoic were great quality. I think sometimes I order wood ribs that the edges seem to “fray” but the wood just seems like a better quality? Maybe a harder type of wood that can withstand the water from pottery? Not sure, but I’m super pleased with it so far!
