U.S. Art Supply - 11" Round Plastic Pottery Wheel Bats, Set of 2 - Durable, Balanced Bat for Use Spinning Clay & Making Ceramics - Design to Only Fit U.S. Art Supply Pottery Wheel

These come as advertised. None of them are warped. I have bought several different times to increase my stock. They are sturdily made, although if you aren’t careful I could see it being easy to break off the plastic pieces that pin them to the wheel. So far(over two years) none have broken.Note- these only work with the US ART SUPPLY TABLETOP WHEEL. They are NOT standard and do NOT fit standard wheels.

I'm new to pottery but I can still tell a good level - high-quality bat. You get 2 bats with the order and at $19 it's almost like getting one free. Both of mine were flat and level and works great on a Brent. The nubs on the underside mates with the pin holes just fine and I've had no problem getting them to pair up. They ride very secure and the 11" size makes them small enough to put on a shelf while you wait for the (whatever you made) to dry. I like the size and the quality and will be stocking up on these.

Instead of the regular slots to attach the bat to the wheel head, these have three pegs that are worthless and no slots at all. I can’t use them at all and unfortunately I didn’t try to use them until after the return time. Sucks I’ve never seen a wheel head that would accept these

The bats were the wrong size for my wheel.

This was the only place I could find bats to fit my potters wheel. It has a proprietary 3-hole wheel head so standard bats do not fit. So glad I found these.

So I originally thought these were throwing bats without holes so that I could throw a ceramic piece and then remove from the wheel. I wish they had shown the bottom. View pics. They have 3 little legs that don't allow me to sit the bat flat. Also the bottom is not smooth like the top. I tried removing the legs but still couldn't use them for what I wanted. I am barely starting a small ceramic home studio in a small closet in my home so I only have a handful of supplies. I ended up using these bats as bats where after throwing I could transfer them on these bats and store them on my drying shelf which is still very functional to me.

No holes for bat pins. Can't use, had to return.

I ordered these bats for my studio and was very unhappy when they arrived and realized they were intentionally designed not to fit on any other brand of wheel. Never in my entire life have I seen bats that do not use the standard two pin system. I waited almost three weeks for them to come so I could start a new project, and now I am going to have to saw off the attachment pins and figure out a way to get these working for my wheel.
