HOW DO I TAKE CARE OF MY NEW GARRITY POTTERY TOOLS?

All our tools are made from woods that hold up well against use and water- and they are all given a bath in mineral oil. They are designed to get messy, so don’t worry about keeping them shiny. As long as you don’t leave your tools soaking in water for very long (ie your slip bucket), they should last for several years. Occasionally when they get really wet, your tools might warp. if you dry them out for a day or two on a flat surface, they will be back to normal!

WHY NOT JUST MAKE TOOLS OUT OF PLASTIC OR METAL?

Plenty of people do, and many of those tools are great, but different materials move clay in different ways. Beyond that, time at the wheel is sacred and relaxing and stressful and holding a quality handmade wooden tool is just so much better than holding a mass produced plastic one. It's kind of like how a plastic cup from goodwill holds coffee just as well as a handmade mug from your inspiring friend.
