Using them on overly soft clay may distort the hole edges; on bone-dry clay, the risk of cracking increases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the 5 sizes included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe set includes \u003cstrong\u003e2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 6mm, and 8mm\u003c\/strong\u003e diameter cutters — one of each size. The 2–4mm sizes are ideal for teapot strainer holes and fine decorative work; the 6–8mm sizes suit drainage holes, larger perforations, and bead cores.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I use the serrated rotating tip?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePress the cutter tip gently against the clay surface and \u003cstrong\u003erotate with light downward pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e. The serrated edge scores and removes a clean clay plug as you twist. Avoid forcing — let the tool do the work for the cleanest result.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I use these for making ceramic beads?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The 2mm and 3mm cutters are well-suited for piercing bead holes through small clay forms before firing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre these tools suitable for teapot strainer holes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. Consistent, clean strainer holes are one of the most common uses for this set. The 2mm and 3mm sizes are the most popular for teapot spout and body strainers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I clean and store these tools?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse with water after each use to remove clay residue. Dry thoroughly before storing. The stainless steel construction is corrosion-resistant, but keeping the tips clean and dry will preserve the serrated edges for longer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TTpen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55418403225905,"sku":"PHP05CC","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0804\/2630\/3793\/files\/O1CN018eOSuY1N0iLdhxMtb__2212283901508-0-cib.jpg?v=1784818311","url":"https:\/\/www.ttpen.com\/products\/pottery-hole-punch-tool-set-of-5-stainless-steel-serrated-drill-cutters-2-3-4-6-8mm","provider":"TTpen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
