B&V Hoop Formers - Circle

$4.00 AUD
GENERAL INFO

ABOUT: Blackbird & Violet Shape Cutters are 3D printed from PLA, a biodegradable plastic.

Their cutting edge is approx. 0.4mm & base is 2-3mm to support an easy cut-out. 

FINISH: All efforts are taken to reduce any bumps created by the printing process, however sometimes some slip through. These are light & can be easily removed during your sanding process.

COLOUR: Print colour varies & you may receive a different colour to that pictured or a mix of colours.

PRODUCT CARE

Shape Cutters are heat sensitive. They are formed by melting PLA to then cool into their shapes & such can be undone the same way - they don't like heat over 50 degrees or prolonged exposure where heat can build up.

Do not:
Leave cutters in direct sunlight, near heat sources, in your car on a hot day or put in the dishwasher.

Do:
Clean with warm, soapy water & a soft tooth brush.
Wipe between uses with a baby wipe, rubbing alcohol or similar.

Store:
A cool space is ideal, such as drawers, stacked containers. Pegboards are great however do ensure the sun magnified through a window doesn't hit them!

Use our Hoop Formers to make shaped Hoops! Mold your hoop snake round the former to get consistent and repeatable shapes.

The Hoop Formers ARE NOT bakeable. They are 3D printed.

If you're unsure on what size to pick: we would recommend looking at 2cm for Small Hoops, 3cm for Medium Hoops & 4cm for Large hoops. Full Set is one of each (3 Formers) for 20% off.

A quick "How To Hoop":

  1. Use an Extruder & Bigger Circles to extrude your clay snake OR
  2. Use a Pro Shaping Tool to roll out your lengths of polymer clay
  3. Wrap around your chosen Hoop Former & pinch close to form a sealed shape
  4. Pop the former our & repeat!
