Thanks for the demos!! Wish I could see the finished bowls up close.

Thanx for sharing. The edge of the pots gets a nice look to it. Faseted bowls looks great when saltet.

What did you use to cut the bowls off the wheel?

Its called a humper sponge ona stick and a needle tool. I made a bunch sold a few of them awhile ago but my needle rusted after the finish came off and haven't sold any after that. I have a few left if you dont mind the chance of it rusting.

Hey! I just want to know which wheel do u use and hov many times it turns in 1 minute? It seems preety fast, havent seen such fast wheel. I use Boss Elite from Creative industries.

its a Frankensoldner. I had the chance to get a bunch of old soldner parts that didn't work made a new table top and did some adjusting to the foot peddle and got this. It goes fast but has less torque when I have 25lbs it bogs down. but Liek you see in the video it helps get those facets off.
