Are there kickwheel kits available out there? If so, who sells 'em?

If I'm not mistaken, or the company quit making them, Brent use to have
two versions of kick wheels. One came with just the hardware and plans.
You had to come up with the lumber - 1 sheet of plywood, a couple of
2X4's, a couple of 2X6's, etc. The other one was complete with pre-cut
wood and hardware and plans. Don't know who would carry them, but I
suppose any ceramic supplier.
I've got one that a dear friend made several years ago from the kit. Back
then they only had the hardware one. She cut all the wood, assembled, and
painted it herself and used it in her classroom for 10 years before giving
it to me. I've carried it all over the state of Missouri in the back of my
truck for pottery demos and it works great! Very smooth and easy to kick.
Hope this helps!
Love & Prayers,

I bought mine from Thomas Stuart, unassembled. It was very easy to set up
and take down. I unfortunately had to sell it. It was cheaper buying it
unassembled. They come with about a 140# fly wheel and marine grade plywood
for the top and seat. It sat very high but I liked that since I am 6'4".

I have an old set of craft encyclopedias (The Family Creative Workshop, by
Plenary Publications, 1976, v.13) that has complete instructions for a
plywood kickwheel. I've thought of trying it, but wasn't sure if I could be
accurate enough to have it balanced right etc. I was interested to read that
it is a plausible project.
