New die for handheld extruders: A larger trapezoid die to make feet for larger pots. The original trapezoid die has been very popular, but I've had requests to make a larger version for larger pots. The original (aka "Small") die is great for pots up to about 6"; the new Large die is great for larger pots.

New dies for your 2" handheld extruder. These dies extrude shapes to make handles (like for mugs). They are similar to the dies for basket weaving but have larger coils at the ends to help anchor the strip as a handle.

The dies come in three widths -- three, four, and five "strands" wide.

The dies fit in most 2" handheld extruders, including Scott Creek, Shimpo / Nidec, Kemper, and the Milwaukee battery-powered extruder.

New die available for the Brent extruder. This Test Tile pattern enables you to test and compare glazes. One side is ridged to test how the glaze breaks. You can leave the other side flat or stamp it with your favorite pattern.

Revised Test Tile dies for 2" handheld extruders.

By customer request, I made the shape a little larger and flat on the bottom.

The small ledges at the bottom of the inside create a pocket at the bottom to let the clay fill in the larger area.

There are "A" and "B" shapes that have features on one or both sides of the extrusion.

The bumps on the foot prevent glaze from flowing off the sides, but it can sneak off the ends.

This die is compatible with several handheld extruders including: Scott Creek, Shimpo / Nidec, Milwaukee, and Ceramic Arts / Kemper.
