Buy the profile you are missing
The LT5 is a useful replacement when the loop tool from a starter set wears out or goes missing. Kemper also includes this model in its pottery tool kit, so check your existing tools before buying another. The model number identifies the particular loop, not a general promise that every Kemper trimming tool behaves alike.
Broad removal needs a thickness plan
A broader loop can address a wider area than a narrow detail tool. Before trimming a base, know where you intend the foot and surrounding surface to finish; the tool cannot tell you how much clay remains. Work on suitably firm clay with the piece securely held. If you are selecting your first individual trimming tool, compare the actual loop outline with the shape used by your instructor rather than assuming a bigger loop is automatically easier.
