Mudtools Mudsponge Range
The Mudsponge range from Mudtools provides staple tools for any potter's toolkit. Engineered to provide performance when working with clay, these sponges are crafted from a material that is very absorbent, yet still incredibly durable. Whether you're throwing, shaping, or smoothing, these reliable sponges offer a level of control over the surface finish and moisture. Each mudsponge is compressed for economy of space, but expands when wet, fitting comfortably in the palm of your hand. These sponges retain structure, performance, and colour over time, making them an environmentally friendly choice and a wise investment for potters seeking consistency with every use.
Versatile Sponges for Clay Work
The Mudsponge selection has a range of sponges made from environmentally friendly material that are perfect for use in pottery. The blue workhorse sponge has earned its name, offering a great all-purpose sponge for use in throwing and general clean-up tasks. Its absorbency makes it perfect for managing water at the wheel, helping potters to maintain control over clay without projects becoming oversaturated.
The orange Mudsponge offers a slightly firmer grip, making it the perfect throwing sponge as it offers a more tactile feel and direct feedback to the user. Like all Mudtools sponges, this product is made to last. The white finishing sponge is excellent for finishing work and final details, as well as the clean-up of surfaces. Thanks to its smoother texture, the white sponge is perfect for final passes and refining a piece as it's prepared to be fired in the kiln.
Final Touch Precision with Bump Tools
For potters and sculptors who are focused on improving those final details and finessing their forms from the inside, bump tools are ideal. Their design enables artists to reach deep inside vessels and challenging shapes and compress and shape the internal walls of the project. They can help to ensure even wall thickness and a smooth internal surface, helping to reduce weak spots and ensure a more consistent result when firing.
The baby bump tool offers the same intelligent design but on a smaller scale and is ideal for use on more intricate projects. With a compact head for refined control, the tool helps to support the delivery of a cleaner, more professional finish.
