"Love the Formula 49... the fact that it will almost completely remove ink dye is a reason alone to call it a great product, not to mention how well it works to blend the inks. I just wish it came in a bigger bottle!" -Gloria Crane, Gourd Artist and Instructor

Check out the video above for great tips on how to use Formula 49, including removing Ink Dye when you make a mistake, conditioning your gourd shell and more!

Shown here, beautiful gourd art by Sue Sweder! Sue is well-known for the fantastic, vibrant colors and beautiful carvings incorporated in her gourd art. She likes to mix GourdMasterTM colors using Formula 49.

"The formula 49 was a great investment. I can’t believe what a difference it made when using the Ink. I will be buying this product again 😉" - W.J.Napioer

ZipCutter Burr Back in Stock!
Just $14.95 or a 2-pack for Just $24.95! (Save 33%)

The ZipCutter Burr makes cutting and carving gourds a breeze! Use this burr to cut open your gourds, create fancy rims, and more!
 
The special design of this burr means it is lasting and won’t burn out with heavy cutting use.
 
Great for large-hole filigree-style carving, etching, and more!

The Zip-Cutter is a more aggressive burr than the Fili-Point burr, so we recommend it for advanced carvers or those with carving experience. For maximum control, only insert the burr half-way into the gourd shell when cutting, then if needed, go back and make a second or third pass (often needed for those thick Welburn gourds!

This awesome carved gourd is by well-known artist and instructor, Gloria Crane! Gloria recently contacted us to say how much she enjoys using the Zip Cutter burr, so we had to take the opportunity to highlight some of Gloria’s incredible work!

See the ZipCutter Burr in action, watch the video now! (ZipCutter is featured in the second project on this video)

Awesome Gourd Art in the Gourd Art Marketplace!
(A place for buying and selling gourd art)

Lovely gourd bowl named Horses Paradise by Berta Tess Gillespie! Berta writes in her post, "As a fine artist and sculptor I treasure each piece as I create it. My gourds are ‘One-of-a-Kind’ original pieces. As you rotate the piece you can choose which view you wish to display. I have named this gourd, ‘Horses Paradise’. I stippled the gourd with different size heads for depth affect. The two horses are having fun running through the grass and flowers while chasing the butterflies. I carved the top and around some of the butterflies. This gourd is: 5” Tall and 25 1/2” Around the middle Price: $115.00(which includes shipping & handling)" To purchase or learn more, use this direct link!
