In this video I make a quick DIY potters wheel, in about 20 minutes.

It is made from:

-1 bicycle wheel
- 3 layers of 20mm sheet timber
- 4 zip ties

You will need tools, jigsaw, and drill, and something for the base a heavy log or old thick wooden table would do. Or perhaps just drill a hole in a concrete floor.

The wheel works OK, but it would work better if the wheel were larger and heavier, of course this would make it more dangerous, as it will hold more momentum.

We made serval pots with this (kids and I) but you need to be careful not to catch any fingers around edge of wheel.
