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.

"the templates are durable, precise and have such a wide variety of sizes, they're perfect for every project. Most of my work is organic, but there are many times when i want a perfectly geometrical shape to contrast the other lines of the piece, and i always can trust these to be symmetrical and well proportioned. I have a ton of them and i recommend them to all my students!"

"I recently purchased a couple jewelry templates from Cool Tools. I accidentally requested store pick-up for my purchase and I received a call from Cool Tools questioning my choice since I don't live in the area. They quickly resolved my shipping issue and I received my templates within a couple days. Thanks Cool Tools!"
