Notes about these workshops:

Dragtool 1 - Mudtool Misha Donohoe polymer clayWhen Michael visited potters in Japan he observed that it was common for them to pull, rather than push, their carving tools through the clay. The dragging motion allowed for less friction and a fluid cut. For years Michael made a variety of Japanese style carving tools for his own use and hes spent A LOT of time carving on clay. Made of high carbon steel and tempered to be very hard, the Dragtool is designed to grace the hand and make a fluted mark
