potter's wheel evaluation-redesign splash pans backward retrofit

Working Potter on thu 9 may 02


I totally agree that the splash pan issue is the most poorly resolved
aspect
so far in wheel design both during the throwing, trimming and cleanup
portions of the tasks involved.It would be great if one were developed that
would adapt backwards to most all existing wheels.I am sure there would be
a
market for this ''mousetrap''.
