Hello,

I haven't figured out if this is a location-specific bulletin board, but =
I wanted to let any potters from around Portland Oregon know I'm giving a=
way a small kickwheel.

It's a wheel I bought from a college student about a year and a half ago,=
and I haven't used it enough to warrant the room it takes.

It has a home-made cabinet around it, a cement wheel and standard steel b=
ase with pins for bats. The first owner was an old lady who got it as a =
present when she was like 10 years old and used it daily for around 70 ye=
ars. She sold it when she could no longer throw.

It's unusual in that the seat is somewhat tall above the wheel and that i=
t has quite a slant to it. Customized for the lady I'd wager. It spins =
well and would be a great trim wheel.

Please contact us via email, first come first serve. You will want to ha=
ve a small truck to pick it up with, it's about a 3 1/2' (not measured, e=
yeballing from here at the computer) square.

Thanks for your time,

Brandon Landis
