Ok I have had my drd 30 electric slab roller one year and here is my
feed back. What a gem. It stated a little rocky -the chain drive was
factory installed exactly backwards but I fixed that. The both hands on
buttons to operate was not acceptable but I fixed that. This feature is
for lawyers not potters. I unwired that pusher bar and installed a foot
peddle which only works if you are pushing down with your foot. Let up
machine turns off. The machine is a dream to operate now. it powers
in both directions. I use canvas as well as baileys paper slab sheet. i
now after 30 yeras of funtional ware am making large and small wall
fish. I got the full size table and it doubles as a glaze table on glaze
days.This machine is another thing I wish i had back in the 70's what
a joy. Mark
