Claims16
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, said platform configured to reciprocally travel between said pair of guide members;
- d) a blade carrier including a cross member having a pair of slide members correspondingly coupled to opposed ends of said cross member, each of said pair of slide members reciprocally slidably coupled to a corresponding one of said pair of guide members by a pair of tubular bearings disposed a distance apart on each of said pair of slide members, each of said pair of tubular bearings disposed proximate opposed ends of a tubular cover surrounding a corresponding one of said pair of guide members;
- and
- e) a blade having a pair of blade ends, 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.
