Shape 1 Blue Firm Polymer Rib

Shape 1 is the middle of the range and the one that covers the most jobs – big enough to cover ground on a thrown wall, small enough to still get into the inside of a bowl. One long edge runs almost straight, which is what you want for compressing or truing a surface, and the opposite edge curves gently for following a form. The ends are rounded, so it will not dig in if your angle drifts. Blue is the firm grade: it holds a line under pressure rather than flexing away. Central hole for hanging.
