Hi Dan,
I love …
Hi Dan,
I love watching your videos!
Observations of the obvious:
1. You have a single speed wheel
2. You use a lot of water, similar to Robin Hopper
3. You don’t use any ribs, only your hands
Thanks for making these videos!

It’s purely for a decorative effect.
Although a thicker band will help with stability of the pot if you’re messing about with it like this.

Dan, is the ring you leave below the lip for decoration or to strengthen an area that would be weak if fully drawn up?
Thanks.

Hi,simply homemade …
Hi,simply homemade bats made of a vinyl/resin material.
On the wheelhead are 2 metal pegs,1 in the edge and 1 in the middle.
Then drill 2 holes in the bat to correspond to the pegs and you just sit the bat on the pegs and the suction of the water on the wheelhead keeps it from lifting up.

Hi Dan, I am very interested in the bat system you use. Could you tell me more about it? And I love your soup bowls!
Thank you Karen in CT

You can get …
You can get wheelheads with prefitted metal pegs or predrilled holes into which you can screw your own metal pegs.
Otherwise you can drill your own holes and screw 2 metal pegs in yourself then drill 2 holes in the bats at the corresponding positions.
You’d better contact a potters supply company to get the right ones though.
As for the Carafe and goblets we don’t do mail order sorry as it costs too much to post and always seems to get broken on the way.
Cheers.

Thank you.
Would …
Thank you.
Would you mind telling me if the pegs are an integral part of the wheel head or have you adapted a standard wheel head to secure the bats? If so, how did you secure the pegs to the wheel?……….
Are these really annoying questions? Sorry, I’m sick of getting splinters.
I am really interested in buying a set of goblets and a carafe (there is a white set in one of your photo’s), should I contact /order through the pottery email address?

These bats are made …
These bats are made of vinyl or perspex type stuff.
They have 2 holes drilled into them which match the 2 small pegs which are stuck out of the wheel head so they just fit over the pegs.
One in the middle and one on the edge.
We used to have wooden ones in the past but got sick of getting splinters.

Hi Dan,
It’s the Brit here again : )
Thanks for the message btw.
Was just wondering what that red bat is made from and how you stick it to the wheel head? All the bats at collage are ply and warped (and need to be binned!). this looks like an economical alternative for them.
