Let your materials – and your ideas – take shape with these four handy mandrels. The wooden “polishing gizmo” is a specialized mandrel with a slot for buffing bracelets. Its unique tapered end holds Art Clay™ Silver rings off your workspace so they won’t get a flat spot while they dry.

The two solid-steel mandrels are extremely durable. Each has ring sizes in ¼-inch increments up to 16, and can be used for stretching and straightening rings. The grooved model additionally allows you to work on rings with stones, preventing distortion. The plastic mandrel is a basic model that displays ring sizes in ¼-inch increments up to 16 and has ample gripping surface. It is best used to form soft items, like clay and thin wire, into round shapes.
