About this template
THIS IS A SLAB CUTTING GUIDE — not a stencil, not an SVG, not a surface pattern, and not a vinyl resist.
You print the pages, cut the paper pieces, trace them onto clay, and build the form with score-and-slip. Decorative glaze / vinyl designs are sold separately.
Make a handmade dad mug without a pottery wheel. Classic slab-built mug with star cutout
This TableTaskStudio instant-download includes one printable slab pottery template in 4 pre-scaled size options: Mini / Kiln-Filler, Small-Kiln Friendly, Standard Studio, and Large / Gift Size.
What you receive:
- US Letter printable PDF
- A4 printable PDF
- Large-format A0 print-shop PDF (the Standard pattern on one big sheet)
- 4 SVG vector files (one per size)
- 1 inch and 2 cm scale-check boxes
- basic assembly notes
- buyer README
Sizes: at Standard Studio size, the wall panel measures 3.5 in tall, and the base disc 2.1 in across. The other built-in sizes scale it to 76% (Mini), 88% (Small-Kiln) and 112% (Large), and the scaling table on the first page also gives the size for printing the large-format file at 125%, 150% and 200%. Sizes are as drawn, before clay shrinkage (typically 5–12%).
Print at 100% / actual size, confirm the scale boxes, cut out the paper template pieces, trace them onto clay, then cut and assemble using your normal score-and-slip method.
Important: This is a ceramic form template and cutting guide only. Finished food, drink, candle, heat, oven, microwave, dishwasher, outdoor, or water-tight safety depends on your clay, glaze, firing, and studio testing.
This design is also included in the Complete Vault (every TableTaskStudio design in one download).
