Tool Drool

I belong to a not so secret society of women who are addicted to tools. It does not even have to be used for its intended purpose. For example, one of my favorite sculpting tools is a knitting needle. Another favorite is a tapestry needle to which I attached a polymer clay handle. It is great for tiny miniatures.

This is one of gamekitty's tools. It is made for polymer clay and it looks so cool! Kinda like a fancy garlic press (you can use those too by the way just don't use it for food afterwards).

Don't know about you but I would love to get my hands on one of those.

I love my tissue blade and my pasta machine. I'm looking for a Play Doh playcentre..cos they are cheaper than the extruder sets I've seen.. but do the same kind of thing. lol

I used to have a couple of the older extruders - I still do here, but they are dusty - but caved and bought the Makins metal one.

My hands love me again.

My very favouritest tools are my cutters though! Circles and squares and little hearts... you name it.

I am actually trying to secure a source for these things so I can offer my weird tools to the world. I will let everyone know when I do have a reliable source of them.
