Description of πŸ–ŒοΈ US Art Supply 7” Diameter Sculpting Wheel: Heavy Duty Metal Construction & Turntable with Ball Bearings for Effective Sculpting

If you are a painter, sculptor or decorator working in ceramics, pottery, floral arranging, model-making, clay design, cake decorating and other artistic work you will find this wheel a perfect choice. The base and top are all high grade and heavy duty made of nearly indestructible heavy cast metal joined with a heavy-duty ball bearing that allows the top to spin easily. Holds up to 40 lbs. The base has a non-skid rubber boot that holds the wheel firmly in place without the need to drill holes in your work station. The top is designed with concentric circles to allow easy centering of your work and the rim is weighted to give the wheel extra momentum when you spin it. It is tall enough (3-3/4") for you to get your hand beneath the top so you can rotate it while you work. lthough it has heavy-duty construction it is still light enough (5 lbs.) so that you can easily move it around when necessary

Robust and stable

I ordered it to paint my ceramics. The two qualities that make this product great are its rubber base and the fact that it's a single piece that won't come loose. The rubber base sticks firmly to the surface. When you lift the turntable, it moves as a unit. I like the height and it can be placed on a box or other support to elevate it for painting. The top moves easily, but will not rotate with a heavy object. I don't know yet how this will work with big chunks. A 12 inch surface could be more…

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Without automatic

For decorative purposes

I don't mold this so if you use it for that purpose my review might not be that helpful. I got this wheel to decorate my discarded pots. I want this wheel to spin longer. It had a slight stiffness at the rim of the wheel where your hand could grab to spin it. I wanted to return it but I missed the deadline and I still have it. I still use it for overglaze and underglaze work, but it's not my favorite. That being said, it's definitely solid and feels like it should last with care as long as the…

That's it - pottery and ceramics

This is a great little binding circle for the price. If your work is the right size (grinding head diameter is only 7 inches) then this is a great little machine. Despite its small size, it has some weight at the base and feels sturdy and stable. I don't know if that's true, it feels like it has bearings, rotation is smooth and even without friction, rattles or squeaks. Best feature - if you've worked in pottery studios you know the set - the screws fall out of the binding wheels and then the…

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • So far so good
