Sherrill Mudshark
New!
The Mudshark is a needle tool and fettling knife in one!
The
needle folds and locks out of the way so you won't impale your hand when
you reach into your tool box. Ergo shaped to fit your
hand. Another great Sherrill tool.

Sherrill Bump
Tool
The Bump is made with a solid aluminum shaft that is
bendable, but not flexible. The sponge end is a very dense material
that becomes chamois-like when wet, and it has a hard ball inside that.
The whole thing is designed to allow for great leverage to move clay
in those tricky places that you cannot get your hand.

Sherrill Flexible Ribs:
These ribs are made from a
flexible material that performs well and actually gets better with use
(it is self-polishing.) Unlike rubber, this material will not develop
burrs. In fact, the more you use it the nicer it becomes. They will
actually burnish themselves as you use them, and with five shapes to
cover a lot of what handbuilders and throwers need from a rib. Each rib
shape is available in four hardnesses from very soft to very firm.
You choose the shape and hardness that suits your clay and your working
style.
New shape 0 is smaller,
perfect for the inside of small bowls and mugs.

Mudcutter
The Mudcutter has been designed to go around a 4" pug,
or an extrusion. The cutting wire is 5.5" long. It's design lends itself to the slicing and cutting of
handbuilding, or at the wheel it fits well in the hand. It also works
great as a faceting tool. This is one tool that once you use it, you will
ask yourself 'how did I work without it? Mudcutter is made of stain steel with a surgical
stain steel wire under tension. It is
easy to change the wires, if needed. The handle has an insert made from
the same material as the ribs. The tool is made so you can lay it in a
bucket of water and it won't rust or degrade. This is a lifetime tool.
(Curly wire makes cool looking slices!)

| Birth of
Mudtools by Michael Sherrill
During my
years of working in clay, making pots and art, I have often had ideas
that required working outside "normal" processes. I found that
the available "clay tools" did not serve my ideas well. So,
out of necessity I would make a tool, or modify an existing one to suit
my needs. These new tools quickly became indispensable and were always
the first thing to come out of my toolbox. Naturally, I would show these
off at a workshop, and as a result I found that people were interested
in buying them!
It didn't take long to figure out that I couldn't make a tool for each
person that wanted one. I was going to need a little help, and that is
how Mudtools was born. I started with the rib. I had already found a
material that performed well and actually got better with use (it is
self-polishing.) With the material in mind, I designed five shapes that
I think cover a lot of what handbuilders and throwers need from a rib.
Each rib shape is available in four hardnesses from very soft to very
firm. You choose the shape and hardness that suits your clay and your
working style.
It is my goal to offer you a tool that has a high performance quality,
is pleasing to the hand and eye, and that you find indispensable.
