Potters Wheel

Post by Pam »

I wanted to try my hand at throwing a pot so recycled my old music centre turntable into a potters wheel. Covered the base of the unit with plastic sheeting leaving just the turntable visible two large plastic deep dinner plates stuck together on the bases then stuck onto the turntable. Works really well ! ......... cant say much about the pot though !! trying to get a photo on
