Taylor: If you have room a treadle wheel would be nice for the
collection. I gave mine to a favourite student as I was getting a sore
back. I never could throw much over 5 lbs on it. and couldn't get a
nice teapot form with my one leg pumping away. I also gave away my
Lockerbie with motor and that broke my heart. I love to throw on an
electric wheel and trim on a kick.
I had a woman tell me last week she sold her Whisper since it didn't
go fast enuff. I tried it and it is Mach 1. I have no idea how she
could want to go faster than that.
Two weeks away from being an urban potter making 04 e-ware.
