About Us

Tortuga Tools was born out of a passion for quality pottery tools—and a bit of frustration. After discovering the precision of a high-end tungsten carbide trimmer, we were hooked—until it accidentally broke just weeks later. While the handle remained intact, the tip was damaged, and we found ourselves unable to source an affordable replacement. Our only option? Purchase an entirely new, costly tool.

That’s when we knew there had to be a better solution for potters seeking reliable, cost-effective tools. We set out to design a trimmer system focused on form, function, and flexibility. With Tortuga Tools, if a tip breaks, simply replace it—no need to invest in a whole new tool. Now you can enjoy premium performance without breaking the bank.
