When selecting either left or right facing cutters, please remember the cutting edge will show the fish facing in the opposite direction.
Fish facing left: when cut the fish is facing towards the left; cutting edge shows fish facing right.
Fish facing right: when cut the fish is facing towards the right; cutting edge shows fish facing right.
Eye detail depth: with clay rolled to 1mm thick (4 playing cards) the eye will be 0.2mm deep, leaving 0.8mm of clay for support. If you roll clay 0.75mm (3 playing cards) or less no inset detail will show.
Note: there is no eye on the smallest sardine.
The cutting edge is super fine: 0.2mm-0.4mm, width varies depending on the complexity of the design.
Most cutters have the size embossed on the side. Special or complex shapes do not.
The size is the diameter of the shape when cut, sizes are approximate.
These cutters are designed for metal clay, they will also work for polymer clay and air dry clay.
Please note:
- All cutters are printed to order, please allow *7-10 processing days (not including shipping / in transit days) when ordering.
- Cutters are made of durable but not indestructable PLA plastic. To clean them use warm water only.
- Colour of the cutters may vary. The colour in the photos is not gauranteed.
- They cannot withstand heat: do not put in a dehydrator, on a hot plate, in hot water or leave in strong direct sunlight.
- Clay can stick to the cutters. Always use a good release agent or clingfilm. My tips for using the cutters are coming soon!
- The very fine cutting edge can be damaged if cutters are stored haphazardly together.
- A full set (if offered) will have one cutter of each size.
