I have developed some modifications to the Peter Pugger
that increase its ease of use and cleaning. I am
prepared to
offer to make these modifications for any users who
would
like them.
I spoke with Randy Wood, president of Peter Pugger at
NCECA last week and he seemed enthusiastic about the
design suggestions at the time but since then I have
not
been able to get a response from him.
Basically, the changes make it possible to tear the
machine
apart completely, clean it and have it back together in
a
very short time without any heavy lifting.
Takers?
Think of being able to change from red groggy clay to
porcelain quickly without contamination!
Mix paper clay in the machine and then go to stoneware.
Mix lowfire and then high fire without any cross
contamination.
Let me know if you would like yours modified.

Hello Michael,
We have a Peter Pugger here at Graceland University and I would be very =
interested in the modifications.=20
We hand wedge our recycled porcelain for that very reason. Real pain. =
Would do more low fire as well if we had the ease of cleaning issue =
addressed.=20
Look forward to hearing from you.
