Use our Ultra Clay Pick for best results!
Made in the USA
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.

"Wonderful template. I has a variety of sizes so one can use it for pendants or earrings. I had been trying to cut that shape freehand without a template, and was never able to get the sides equal. With the template it is very easy. The edges of the template are smooth so that the cutting tool just glides around it. I highly recommend it."

"This is yet another of the great "Jewelry Shape Templates" from Cool Tools. With the range of sizes in the template, it is very easy to create a set of outstanding earrings and pendant. Also, the design is easy to cut out and remove from the surrounding PMC.

"I was thrilled to find all the wonderful templetes that this great company has to offer. I belong to a Lapidary Club and the group has been looking over my shoulder at the new patterns I have been cutting my stones with. Templetes will last a lifetime. I have bought at least ten. There are very little selection for cutting cabochons and this has made my time picking out just the right shape to"
