You shouldn't have to settle on the next best thing.

Welcome to The Clay Maker's Tool Box!
With The Clay Maker's Tool Box
We're Closing The Door To...
The Dead-End Searches:
You're Googling "How to make clay cutters" after spending $100+ on Etsy, bookmarking a page, watching 5 minutes of a Youtube video, and reading comments on Facebook that say "It's too hard".
You don't know where to start.
So you say to yourself "I'll figure it out when I have more time."
Until the next time you need to buy cutters. Rinse and repeat.
The Clay Maker's Tool Box guides you through every step. Through every question. So you're never lost or confused.
Lack of Confidence:
I know exactly how this feels. I didn't feel smart enough, techy enough, and the research alone made my head spin.
I knew what I wanted but I didn't think I could get there. I spent hours, days, weeks, and months to get to where I am now. I doubted myself every step of the way.
But you don't have to.
I went through the hard parts so that you don't have to. I'll teach you how to have confidence in your new skills.
And yes, even if you're not tech-savvy.
Creative Burnout:
It's hard being an artist, especially if you're selling your work. Add in social media, the comparison trap, and current affairs and it's a wonder everyone isn't in creative burnout.
But with The Clay Maker's Tool Box, you get perks that help you fight creative burnout.

Lackluster Results:
There's nothing more frustrating than spending time designing a cutter or tool just for it to come out with blobs, dull blades, missing parts, or rough layers.
And even more frustrating? Not having a clue how to fix it.
With The Clay Maker's Tool Box you'll never have to struggle with lackluster results again. I've seen every tool misprint out there, so when you run into a problem - you'll know exactly how to fix it.

AND SO MANY MORE!
Because you're not here just to
learn how to make clay cutters.
And you're definitely not here to struggle with tech or tinkering.
You didn't sign up for learning 3D printing just to end up in tears, or worse, let your printer sit unused, collecting dust!
You're here to save money and time by creating your own tools.
Like...
Your Grandmother's 80th birthday sneaking up on you so you create "8" & "0" candle cutters and have completed earrings for her birthday party that's in a few hours.
Then the next week a cheer mom asks you for custom earrings for the cheer team - complete with logo and pom poms. It's a breeze and more money in your pocket because you can make your own transfers and matching cutters.
And you've started doing clay workshops at your local art center, since you can create your own tools you're able to reduce the cost of the class so that more people can participate. (no more bulk ordering cutters, or sharing the same 10 cutters each workshop!)
Sounds great, right? Well this is how we do it…

What My Students Love
Alex truly helps set you up for success. it's not a course where she just teaches and cuts you loose. She provides reference attachments, shows examples, and completely sets you up for success to do everything the course teaches you to do. I'm learning more than I ever have in 6 years of owning a 3D printer (previous Flashforge owner). I bought the A1 for the bigger bed, and I'm so excited to learn more from her!
If you are interested in printing your own cutters or anything in general you should definitely check out this course! It can apply to so many other things as well.
It has everything you need to know in one place! And so easy to understand
Your videos helped me confidently set up my printer. I was also able to make my first cutter! I would tell them that this course will guide them how to make clay cutters and use a 3D printer, so they can confidently use a 3D printer and skip the "newbie" mistakes! I just felt like it was a great course. You broke things down in a simple way. The videos are invaluable. Also, the 50 STL files are amazing!
I cannot say enough about the Fusion 360 course and the way Alex effortless walks you through all of the steps. As someone with ADHD, I often get overwhelmed with learning a next task, especially on the technical side of things. I learn best when someone can walk me through the process, and Alex does this perfectly with easy to understand guidance. I have to understand something completely before I can apply the knowledge, and half way through the course I had that "Ahhhh HA!" moment where it all just clicked. I love that I will have unlimited access to the classes so I can come back for a refresher, or if I get hung up on one of the steps. I love the community group discussions, and the expansion of classes based on user needs. The platform is very user friendly and extremely organized and easy to follow. I love that this course is geared specifically towards making polymer clay cutters, using many different styles of cutter designs for reference. I highly recommend taking this course whether you are a cutter seller, or are just looking for unique exclusive designs for your jewelry business. You will save SO much money and time making and printing your own cutters, and you will always end up with exactly what you are looking for. I am very excited about taking the next step in my business and bringing my own creations to life!
This course is straight forward, easy to follow and efficient to get started printing clay cutters. The slicer settings explained and easy to follow guide for both 0.4 & 0.2 nozzle were my favorite part.
Ease of use, even for the very new beginner! A definite must if you you're wanting to continue this long term!
The biggest win: I now have the confidence to print high-quality prints myself. So maybe I can even sell them and inspire other creators with fun shapes! I would recommend it. The knowledge I have gained gives me the confidence to delve deeper into this!
I was able to make something!!! I absolutely loved the course and would recommend it 10/10 times. it has bee4n so educational and helpful. I wouldn't know what to do without this course! the information and tips make it so i can get started right away and saves me a lot of stress
Love how it's broken down in small segments that are easy to understand, That's it's informative and easy to follow
You have to get it, it helped me and it sure will help you! All the finer details will make my journey easier!
This course is jam packed with great information. The videos are easy to follow and the instructions easy to understand. Alex is a fantastic instructor! So knowledgeable and you really can see how much she loves her craft and sharing with others. Thank you for yet another WONDERFUL course! As soon as I print something, I'll upload some photos. Cheers, MN
While this course is a bit more expensive than others, it’s 100% worth every penny. I came into it knowing what I wanted to create, but constantly running into the frustration of not being able to find the right cutter or tool online—and wasting money trying. Now, thanks to this course, I can custom-design exactly what I need, anytime I want! Alex is an amazing teacher—she breaks everything down in a way that’s easy to follow, no matter your experience level. She’s relatable, down-to-earth, and teaches like someone who’s been exactly where we are. It honestly felt like learning from a friend who gets it. If you’re serious about making your own clay cutters or tools, I highly recommend this course. It’s empowering, practical, and opens up so many creative possibilities. 100% recommend!
I can't recommend this course enough! It has been a game-changer for me in learning how to make clay cutters. Alex is incredibly helpful and attentive, and the tutorials are clear and easy to follow. Thanks to the guidance and continued support, I’ve been able to bring my ideas to life in ways I never imagined. After months of practice and really diving into all the techniques, I’m now selling my own cutters, have invested in a second printer, and have already made back more than the cost of the course. If you’re considering this course, go for it—you won’t be disappointed!
I’ve been wanting someone to put out there a course to make clay cutters, as buying them was costing me. Then I found this course through Instagram, it’s changed everything in my small business. I’ve made a few clay cutters going through this course. I love how simple it is to go through, it’s very thorough. I definitely recommend this course to anyone that’s wanting to make their own clay cutters.
Just a personal review of the CCB courses...I have taken both the beginner course and the Fusion 360 course and I HIGHLY recommend them!!! If you have a 3d printer or thinking about getting one then these classes are absolute game changers! The classes are easy to follow and really fun and informative. I can't recommend enough!
I've been using Fustion for about 4-5 years. I can do cutters but could not crack the mystery of texture rollers. Thus why I'm here now. I was requesting this tutorial for a long time and my prayers are finally answered! Can't wait to give it a try! Thanks so much Alex!!!
I love your courses and very easy for a newbie to understand! Thank you so much for helping me in my journey
