Tombo

Bamboo Tombo
Japanese pottery gauge
Dragonfly
Throwing Ribs
Tombo means dragonfly in Japanese. It's also the name of this very nifty bamboo tool I learned how to make at ceramics school last week. It is a traditional Japanese measuring gouge used for making duplicate cups or bowls on the pottery wheel. It gives you a target width and depth of a bowl when you are making a matching set, which is what I will be attempting to make in my wheel throwing class.
And I wouldn't be me if I didn't decorate all my throwing tools with my wood burning tool, right? :)

Thank you so much for making my shop update such a successful one! I hope all of you that bought an original piece loves it in person when it arrives :)
I've been painting kitties this morning and thinking of my next shop update in a month or so. It will include more originals, new leather cuffs, other leather goodies and if I really work hard a few ceramic pieces!
