i FINALLY designed & am producing my own texture tools! after many years of using found items like pastry cutters, cement & saw blades, toy truck tires, etc, i designed my own! while these were fun to use, they would clog up quickly & leave less texture marks. so i made mine with deep grooves.
i had access to those star trek type 3D printers
so i designed a basic texture disk that slips over a screw onto a handle. if you stack these disks different ways you get different results in your textured pot or slab.
i usually throw the cylinder, texture the walls, and stretch out the pot. even if i screw up pot the walls can be used for slab work.
feel free to see the pictures on my webpage.
see ya
