Pottery Wheels
Pottery wheels are an essential tool for both hobbyist and professional potters. They allow users to spin clay into intricate designs and shapes with precision and accuracy. Pottery wheels come in many different sizes, from small tabletop models to larger wheel heads that attach to a stand. Some of the most popular styles are electric or kick-wheels. Electric wheels are powered by a motor and require a power source, while kick-wheels provide the potter with more control as they manually spin the wheel.Â
Pottery wheels can be used to create everything from simple cups to complex sculptures. The user controls how quickly or slowly the clay spins, allowing them to manipulate the shape of their creations. A variety of tools can be used with the wheel, including sponges, ribs, and knives to help sculpt the clay into shape.Â
