The Stud Maker™ by Clément Marquaire (CMMC Tools)

Say goodbye to the hassle of soldering and off-centre earring posts! Make earring studs in no time!

Designed by master artisan Clément Marquaire of CMMC Tools, The Stud Maker™ is an ingenious system that lets you create flawless, professional-quality stud earrings in minutes. We are thrilled to offer this game changing tool exclusively in the UK.

If you've ever struggled with uneven clay backs, cleaning up messy paste or solder, or crooked posts, this tool completely eliminates the guesswork. It will leacve you with neat and professional looking studs, every time!

The secret is in the specially designed Pusher tool, which features a perfectly centred guide hole. It holds your earring pin perfectly straight, allowing you to embed it securely into the wet clay in one simple step - no soldering required!

Whether you are making ready-to-wear geometric studs or creating embedded post pads to attach to larger designs, The Stud Maker™ guarantees a perfect result every time.

Key Features & Benefits

• Perfectly Centred: Embeds your earring posts perfectly straight and dead centre in seconds.
• No Soldering Needed: Embed ear posts or pins directly into wet clay securely without the need for paste or a torch.
• Customisable Thickness: Use the Adjustable Base with the two Thickness guides to customise your clay depth. Choose from four perfect thicknesses: 1.25mm, 2.25mm, 3.5mm, or 5mm.
• Versatile Creations: Make standalone stud earrings, or use the tool to create quick embedded post pads for complex jewellery pieces.

What's included?

Each Stud Maker kit is sold by shape and comes with 4 main components (the Cutter, a Pusher, a Bottom, and two Sizers).

Inside your shape kit, you will find:

• 12 Cutters: Create 6 matching pairs of earrings in 6 different graduated sizes (for example, the Round set ranges from 4mm up to 12mm).
• 1 Precision Pusher: Designed to hold your pins straight.
• 1 Adjustable Base: Holds your pusher and stores your thickness guides.
• 2 Thickness Guides: Unscrew your base to find two 1.5mm round thickness guides. These can be used when rolling out clay, but inside the base they also serve the purpose of adjusting the level of your base, which sets how thick your stud will be.

  • TOP TIP - don't miss that the thickness guides can be unclipped into two C-shapes, and rejoined into a longer S-shape - this will allow you to roll out larger sizes of clay sheets! Check the video below, it will make it clear!
