Hi!

The other day I responded to someone's email regarding shopping for a
wheel. I apologize, I cannot remember who you are! :( Sorry!
I wanted to clarify a few things from my email.

I was looked at the specs for my wheel tonight and discovered
that it was a 1/2 hp motor, and it centres, according to the specs,
50+ lbs of clay. Weighs 110 lbs. I believe its a model M400. It is
AWESOME!! The cadillac of electric wheels! (did I mention that I llike it? The other shimpo masterseries I mentioned is 1 hp, not 1/2 hp, and it
centres 100+ lbs of clay.
I remember reading that they have the capability of the wheelhead
turning counter-clockwise, in the event that you're left handed.

Just thought you might be interested in the update.
