Abstract: The present invention provides a clay extruder having a reinforced plunger for shaping clay into desired patterns having a hollow core. The extruder has a screw disposed within a sleeve, a reinforced plunger located on the screw and inside the sleeve, a handle located on the screw and outside of the sleeve, an adaptor disk for forming a hollow core, and a perforated extrusion disk opposite the insertion of the screw into the sleeve. As the plunger pushes clay out the sleeve, an o-ring around the plunger prevents clay from leaking back, and the adaptor disk for forming a hollow core and a perforated disk mold the clay into a desired pattern with a hollow core.

The extruder has a screw disposed within a sleeve, a reinforced plunger located on the screw and inside the sleeve, a handle located on the screw and outside of the sleeve, and a perforated disk opposite the insertion of the screw into the sleeve. The handle is used to turn the screw and move the plunger through the sleeve. As the plunger pushes clay out the sleeve, an o-ring around the plunger prevents clay from leaking back, and a perforated disk molds the clay into a desired pattern. Metal construction and a thicker side of the plunger allow the extruder to be subjected to high amounts of torque and pressure without damage or failure.
