Controlled Clay Removal
The sharpened stainless steel ribbon head is designed to remove controlled amounts of clay rather than simply pushing or compressing the surface. This makes Kemper Loop Tools useful for refining wheel-thrown forms, removing excess material, and shaping sculptural clay.
Choose Your Cutting Profile
Different loop shapes interact with the clay differently, allowing artists to select a profile suited to the area they're refining. The LT1 provides a 1/2" triangular head, while the LT2 offers a broader 3/4" circular head.
