Squirrel craft cutter pair

Pair of squirrel and acorn craft clay cutters. Two cutters to make cute earrings in a variety of sizes.

 

You may want to use, for example, a clingfilm or potato flour in between, so that the pulp sheet does not stick to the cutter. Sizes 1 and 2 are used in the pictures.

 

Cutter sizes measured from the inside, width x height mm:

1: 20 x 21

2: 25 x 26

3: 30 x 32

4: 35 x 37

5: 40 x 42

6: 45 x 48

7: 50 x 53

 

The cutter has a patterned surface that works best with a 3 mm thick ground sheet. In this case, the pattern is pressed into the clay by about a millimetre.

 

The cutter needs a little more pressure than a metal cutter. The cutting edges will be sharp and precise. You can also use cling film or a piece of plastic bag in between the cutter and the polymer clay, if you want rounder edges.

The polymer clay cutters are printed in Finland, from plant-based, biodegradable plastic. The cutter must not be heated or put in the oven. The cutter starts to soften at around 60 degrees Celsius.

Clean the cutter after use, wipe off any visible clay.
