Fifteen different wooden modelling tools in a single set — everything needed to shape, texture, smooth, and detail clay, air dry clay, soft dough, and modelling materials across the full range of hand-building and sculpting techniques. A practical, well-priced set that covers all the fundamental tool profiles used in three-dimensional craft and modelling work, without the need to source individual tools separately.
Each of the fifteen tools has a different profile — combining a range of pointed, flat, rounded, serrated, and looped forms that between them cover the core operations of clay work: scoring and joining surfaces, smoothing and refining edges, pressing texture into the clay, opening and enlarging holes, carving detail, and removing or shaping material. The wooden construction is lightweight and comfortable in the hand during extended modelling sessions, and the smooth finish glides cleanly across clay and dough without dragging or leaving unintended marks in the surface.
The set is suitable for both adults and children — the wooden tools have no sharp cutting edges, making them safe for supervised classroom use, children's craft, and home modelling projects. Compatible with DAS air dry clay, polymer clay, soft modelling dough, and similar materials, as well as papier mâché and soft plaster work.

What are wooden modelling tools used for?
Wooden modelling tools are used to shape, smooth, texture, and detail clay and soft modelling materials. Different profiles serve different purposes — pointed tools for scoring and detail work, flat tools for smoothing surfaces and blending joins, rounded tools for pressing and shaping curves, and serrated or looped tools for texture and material removal.
Are these suitable for children?
Yes — the wooden construction has no sharp cutting edges, making these tools safe for supervised use by children in classroom and home craft settings. They are suitable for use with DAS air dry clay, soft modelling dough, and similar child-friendly materials.
What materials can these tools be used with?
Air dry clay, polymer clay, self-hardening clay, soft modelling dough, papier mâché, and similar soft modelling materials. For harder materials such as leather-hard or bone-dry clay, metal sculpting tools would be more appropriate.
How should the tools be cleaned?
Wipe clean with a damp cloth while the clay or dough is still fresh. Dried clay can be picked or scraped off carefully — do not soak in water as prolonged immersion may cause the wood to swell or split.
