The "Prodigy" Potter's Wheel Is Built To Satisfy Heavy-Duty Demand


Thomas Stuart has gained a well-deserved reputation for building high quality potter's wheels. This "Prodigy" Wheel is another great value in their line. Built extra strong it will easily center 100 lbs. of clay. The heart of any potter's wheel is the motor and this wheel offers an extra heavy-duty 1/3 HP motor that is designed with maximum torque and will run continuously all day long without overheating. It also features a heavy-duty, cast aluminum foot pedal and a motor controller that allows for exact control. It has a vacuum-formed table top for complete water protection and a round, one-piece splash pan that can easily be removed. The bearings, pulleys and belt are the same as on their largest wheels. All of the components are assembled onto a welded steel frame. Rotation of the wheel is counterclockwise and it is built for right hand use only. This wheel delivers professional performance that is smooth, quiet and reliable and is suitable for either studio or classroom. It weighs 94 lbs. A NOTE ON DELIVERY: This wheel is drop-shipped direct from the factory. Please be aware that this can take up to two weeks of processing time in addition to the normal delivery time.

Potter's Pottery Wheel By Brent Has The Strength And Features Of Larger Potter's Wheels And Includes Splash Pan

I've been using Brent wheels for years. I've left this one out in the snow this past winter because of space constraints. It is working great and the electronics all seem sound and well sealed. I've had to take it apart to tinker with the pedal speed and found it very easy to work on. In my opinion (based on 25 years of throwing on the wheel) Brent wheels are only second in reliability to kick-wheels (and much less bulky!) It may seem like a spendy amount but you won't be sorry when you have a reliable tool that lasts years.
