Twining Rope Medium Texture Wheel for Clay | GM-004

Price range: $14.95 through $25.00

A medium clay texture wheel with a Twining Rope pattern. Pairs with the RH-3 handle for precise, single-handed control on flanges and allows you to add texture right down to the bat. You can purchase the texture wheel alone or with the RH-3 handle and hardware kit.

Why an MKM Tool Is Worth More

  • Precision-carved (CNC), never laser-etched or 3D printed, for deeper, sharper impressions in clay.
  • Beveled edges that roll crisply and release cleanly without a release agent.
  • A seamless pattern that repeats continuously, so you can cover any length of clay.
  • Oil-treated hardwood built to last: studio tools are still in daily use after 20 years.
  • Designed and tested by working potters in the MKM studio.

Description

The Twining Rope Medium Clay Texture Wheel is a hand-held tool for adding texture to clay. It’s designed to be paired with the RH-3 handle, giving you precise and secure control with just one hand. That makes it easy to add texture to flanges. The shape of the RH-3 handle lets you carry the pattern on your clay all the way down to the bat.

Inspired by the bold, geometric style of the Twining Rope era, this wheel gives vases, planters, and serving pieces a continuous decorative surface. The GM (medium) size works on both medium and large forms and rolls a consistent pattern in one smooth motion. Our GM, GS, or Gear Groups (GG) are inspired by The Steve Tool and its handle style. Texture wheels from all 3 product lines are interchangeable on the RH-3 handle.

How To Use:
To use this roller, throw a straight cylinder and clean the slip off with a straight edge rib. Next, use one hand to roll the Twining Rope Medium Clay Texture Wheel along the outside. Have your other hand support the wall from the inside. Stop before you overlap your texture. Then stretch the clay from the inside with a rib to create your final shape. Whether you’re experimenting with new surfaces or building a signature look, this wheel makes intricate texture easy to achieve right at the wheel.

Details:
– 1 medium textured wooden wheel, 4 cm (1.6 inches) in diameter

Care:
Wood is a natural material and will absorb some water. Rinse and let the tool air-dry after use. Don’t leave it soaking.
