Hi,

I'm an intermediate clay potter and had learned pottery in Tucson. I've
since move to Austin, Texas to attend grad school and I have found the cost
of learning pottery to prohibitively steep around ($215 per 8 weeks). Its
been several months since I've thrown and I am missing it terribly. I am
seriously considering getting a second-hand wheel so that I can continue
throwing, but I am not sure where I could find affordable second hand
wheels. I have gone to ebay, but I am not sure whether to trust those
sources. I would appreciate any suggestions on models to purchase and where
I might potential find these. Thanks for the help.

happy potting,
Juanita
