Product Tips
To use the template on polymer, metal or ceramic clay, place a plain or textured slab on a Tuff Card or other work surface. You can safely rest your fingers on the template to hold it in place. Cut out the shape with our Ultra Clay Pick or a very fine needle tool. Start at the outside corners and cut to the inside corners for the cleanest cuts. Remove the template and lift away the excess clay.
For use on sheet metal, use a Scotchbrite pad to give the surface a soft satin finish, then use a scribe to scratch the shape onto metal. China white can also be used to paint on a white surface, or another method is to cover the metal surface with a label, then trace the shape with a sharpie. It's easier to see it this way and helps with more accurate cutting.

Invaluable resource for metal clay
"Invaluable resource for metal clay fabrication. What I love about cool tools is the vast amount of resources they have, great tutorials, tools for every aspect of metal clay crafting, templates and textures galore as well as clay. When I pay for 7-10day shipping, they will send It immediately so I don't have to wait so long. They do have sales incentives most holidays too. Unfortunately, the discounts don't run much more than 5% so it is still high priced silver and sterling material."
