Abstract
A polymer clay slicer having a base which supports a platform positionally adjustable in relation to a blade carrier which operates to engage a blade with an amount of polymer clay located on the platform to generate polymer clay slices having a desired thickness.
Claims29
A polymer clay slicer, comprising:
- a) a base;
- b) a platform reciprocally slidably coupled to said base, said platform having a top adapted to receive an amount of polymer clay;
- c) a pair of guide members disposed in upright fixed relation to said base between which said platform reciprocally travels;
- d) a blade carrier including a cross member having coupled proximate opposed ends one of a pair of slide members, each of said pair of slide members slidably coupled to a corresponding one of said pair of guide members to allow reciprocal travel of said blade carrier in relation to said platform;
- and
- e) a blade having a pair of blade ends, each of said pair of blade ends correspondingly coupled to a corresponding one of said pair of slide members of said blade carrier to dispose a cutting edge in substantially parallel opposed relation to said top of said platform, wherein reciprocal travel of said blade carrier from a first position to a second position to engage said blade with said top of said platform allows production of a plurality of polymer clay slices from said amount of polymer clay incrementally advanced by said platform.
