Dear Don, I built a small deairing pug based on Harry Davis' design
about 30 years ago it is still in use and does all that you could
possibly want, including extruding. I think you can see a picture of it
in Diana Pancioli's book though have yet to see a copy as its not
available over here yet.
The Potters Alternative by Harry Davis (ISBN 0801980062 published by
Methuen Australia) has plans of the design plus many other pieces of
equipment. I have a copy so if you are unable to source one let me know
and I could send you some info from it.
Kind Regards, Paul Stubbs
