Key information
Yellow tools require further training. Training will be available either in the form of a bookable tool training session, or by dropping into the space and making an arrangement with a technician.
A slab roller is a pottery tool that flattens clay into uniform, consistent sheets (slabs) of adjustable thickness, acting like a heavy-duty rolling pin for efficient creation of tiles, boxes, sculptures, or parts for larger forms, using one or two large rollers to press clay between canvas-covered boards.
What training do I need to use this tool?
The induction for the slab roller is by arrangement with a technician.
If you would like to use the slab roller, come to the workshop during opening hours and work out a time to be inducted with one of the technical staff.
