    I presume you've this sorted?

    I know of a second-hand pottery wheel that has become available. In excellent working order, pedal operated, with integrated seat.

    Also available is cylindrical kiln - I think one of the elements needs replacing.

    Let me know if interested.

    Hey,

    I am also looking for a potters wheel. Does anyone know where I can buy one? Second hand would be fine as its just for a hobby.

    Also if anyone has any information on kilns that would be great.


    Cheers:)

    Hi there,

    Know someone selling a 12" 1/3hp Alsager wheel that looks much like this P6107

    PM me if interested.
    Also a top-loading circular electric kiln that that needs an element replaced.

    Cheers

    thanks novice, but i'm sure its expensive enough, even if second hand.

    If its a low price then PM me...

    I think I might be able to get someone I know to build me a manual one.

    just spent several moments wondering what a Harry Potter wheel was

    We were on safari recently in Botswana and Finton, our eldest, had a go at a pottery wheel belonging to a local Tswana tribe, he absolutely loved it, he made a clay shamrock and gave it to a tribe elder. He's avid about trying his hands at pottery again, such a lovely pastime

    Hi there, I am looking for a reasonably priced electric pottery wheel, preferably in the Dublin area - however I am willing to travel. Also any information about a kiln would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    The only kiln I have is a small jewellery type kiln, not suitable for your work I’m sure. The wheel is very heavy and you would need a van or trailer to transport it. If you don’t have either I could see about getting it delivered for you. We’re about an hour drive from Newlands Cross.


    Professional quality (this wheel is used in many colleges) 12 inch/30 cm wheel head 1/3 rd horse power motor dimensions height 89 cms...width 80cms.. Lenght 80cms.. Weight 65 kgs. 600 Euro ONO

    Let me know if you would like to come to see it.

    Regards,

    Derrin

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15 Derrin
