No sharp points! All interior points have been rounded off. Sharp points can cause cracking of the clay. In this design, all points have been carefully rounded off to prevent cracking and making it easier compress the area with a rib tool.
Center frame alignment: The center "frame" of the cutter matches the base of the pottery form. You can use the frame to guide rollers or other decoration tools to pattern the center of the tray. You can also lightly trace around the frame to help align and center the form.
Frame as hanger for pegboard: Many potters store their cutters on pegboard. Hang your cutter by the frame to protect the cutting edge and prevent the cutter from stretching.
