What someone described--a handle pushed back and forth to regulate
speed--is found--was found--on Shimpo wheels.

Do you think that you might find someone with a shimpo of that type--(hey
Clayarters, where are you Shimpo owners) and see if that works for you. I
bet some one out there could "convert" and hybredize your wheel.

However: if your upper body muscles work ok then you CAN learn to throw with
the footpedal just next to your wheelhead. Don't forget that in the old
factories wheels were centrally turned and did not switch speed. It takes
practice. But you can do it.
