Most of the tools in the shop are from Jim Moore, if you wanted to get your own tools (like diamond shears that actually cut.)

Spiral Arts is also the main US distributor of Carlo Dona tools. Personally I find their jacks to be “scratchy,” but everything else dreamy.

Some people are very fond of Cutting Edge Diamond Shears for their lightness/size ratio.

Jasen Johnson started making some very sweet tagliols and sculpting tools.

Some of you asked last semester where to turn to for pipes/punties if you wanted to buy your own. I recommend Spiral Arts. It’s very likely they will have a booth at GAS with some discount if you are planning to be at GAS.

We will be pulling cane in the coming weeks. Your lab fee pays for some extra stiff white and extra stiff black. If you wish to order more other colors, try some of these vendors:

Olympic Color Rod

C&R Loo

East Bay Batch and Color
