Balsa- Foam® print making

Balsa-Foam® can be easily carved with traditional and non-traditional hand tools to create the shape and design you want. It can then be decorated with any paint just like balsa wood.

Balsa-Foam® (density of 5 lb. per cubic foot) is great for students because it's easy to sculpt and does not require the use of sharp tools. 

Balsa-Foam®II (density of 10 lb. per cubic foot) is still relatively easy to carve and shape like Balsa-Foam®, but requires the use of sharper or pointier tools like regular pottery tools.  The higher density holds intricate detail and is more durable. 

Since Balsa-Foam® has no “memory” or rebound, it will hold an impression. This means you can create detailed shapes by simply pressing any object into the surface. Carving, block printing, and sculpting are easy to teach with Balsa-Foam®.

Craftsman's Knife   

At first I was afraid to sell this knife, because it is very SHARP!  But I took it to a 2 day hand building workshop and it quickly became my favorite tool for cutting slabs and altering thrown forms.  It is very stiff and strong, fits in your hand well, and won't rust.  I can assure you that you will like this tool.  But please do not use where children are present!.

A heavy-duty knife made from stiff stainless steel the entire 8 inch length, hardwood handles riveted to a straight, sharp pointed 3 1/2 inch long blade.  An easy to take care of stainless steel knife designed to take punishment.  It is used to cut straight lines, pierce, ream, and furnish all a craftsman's cutting needs.    
(Overall size 8" long, 3 1/2" blade, 1" wide, brass riveted 1/2" thick.)
