Pottery throwing cloth — a practical wheel accessory that resists deformation, absorbs excess water, and holds clay securely during throwing. Key benefits - Keeps working times predictable: high absorbency removes excess water from the clay surface so you can retain drier, more controllable working conditions. - Stable, non-slip performance: textured, slip-resistant design secures clay pieces on the wheel and prevents unwanted movement while trimming or shaping. - Surface protection: prevents scratches and wear to the wheel head and work surfaces during throwing and finishing. - Durable and shape-retaining: constructed to resist warping and maintain a consistent working surface over repeated use. Main functions and compatibility - Function: absorbs water, stabilizes clay, protects surfaces, and improves control while throwing, modeling, and glazing. - Compatibility: designed for use with potter’s wheels, wheel-throwing stations, classroom wheels, and home studio setups as an accessory to standard pottery wheels. - Performance: combines reliable water absorption with a non-slip surface to support smooth, predictable throwing and detailing work. Practical applications (3 examples) - Studio throwing sessions: place the cloth on your wheel head to keep clay centered and reduce slippage while you shape taller forms or work at higher speeds. - Classroom instruction: provides a consistent, protective surface for students learning centering, pulling, and trimming; reduces wheel-head wear and keeps practice pieces stable. - Home studio glazing and detailing: use the cloth during drying, modeling, or glazing steps to prevent pieces from sliding and to protect tables or wheel surfaces from scratches and moisture. Who this is for - Ceramic artists, pottery students, hobbyists, and crafters who need reliable wheel accessories to improve control, protect equipment, and streamline throwing and finishing tasks. Simple, functional accessory to improve control and protect your equipment during pottery throwing and related tasks.
