pottery wheel in limited space

Smith, Judy on mon 20 aug 07


I am very limited in my potting space. I keep my pottery wheel and kiln
in the garage along with lots of tools and two cars. My kiln and
pottery wheel are on wheels so that I can push them up against the wall
when not in use. I bought some tripod dollies from Home Depot and I
keep one under each leg of the pottery wheel. When I want to throw pots
I move the car outside, move the wheel away from the wall, and lift each
leg of the wheel one at a time to remove the dollies. I uploaded
pictures of my pottery wheel to my web page in case anyone is interested
in what these dollies look like. Ignore the pots. This web page is my
log of my potting experiments. I like to try lots of techniques and I
keep pictures of them with notes for future reference. My plan is to
use these notes to make better pots in the future.
