Jepson Wood Tools
|
|
These tools are carefully handmade to exacting standards by craftsmen
who take pride in their work. Various fine-grained hardwoods are used
including mahogany, maple, birch and apple. Working edges are precisely
cut and beveled and the entire tools sanded to a velvety surface
protected by a hand rubbed oil finish. You won't see this quality and
variety anywhere else.

Wood Profile Tools
|
|
Diminutive works of art which are also efficient
tools -- a joy to hold, a delight to use; they can instantly transform
your thrown pots. They proved absolutely irresistible to potters
who could actually see and hold them at the ' 99 NCECA convention in
Columbus. Warning: it can become intoxicating. Use with taste
and discretion.
Cindi's tip: Unless you are throwing very thick forms, get a tool
with a shallow profile to start with. Until you get the hang of
it, the more deep profiles can cut through thin clay.

Wood Edge Tools
|
|
Years ago Jepson made early versions of numbers 1 and 2 for his own
use, These were the first tools they began to market on a small scale in
1995. They are simple, versatile and a delight to use. Excellent for
refining or defining rims, bottoms, feet of thrown or hand built pots,
for accenting any edge or creating decorative bands or handles. You can't really imagine the
creative potential of these tools until you begin to use them. |
