mini ribbon tools

Hello all,

Earlier this week I posted a query about where to buy individual Kemper mini
ribbon tools, which are normally sold in a set of 6 different shapes. I
wanted several of the larger triangle shapes, and not several sets!

I received a private email from Diane who works at Miami Clay Co. who told
me that they sell them, and that's where I ended up ordering a number of the
larger triangles for $1.99 each. We had a lovely conversation on the phone.

I also phoned Kemper, where I could have purchased them at the same price,
but Kemper would only ship UPS, which would have been more expensive (from
CA to PA) than sending them through the US Postal Service, which is what
Diane will do.

Someone else suggested Sheffield Pottery, but they only sell the Kemper mini
ribbon tools as a set.

Judy, the President of Del Val Pottery Co., told me that they also sell them
individually, but I'd already placed my order with Miami Clay.

Thanks to everyone who replied with suggestions, and I'm really looking
forward to having a good supply of exactly the tool I prefer for carving
clay.
