Throwing Bats

PRODUCTION BATS

Standard drill is two holes 10 inch center-to-center to fit Brent, new Pacificia, Soldner and many others.

Can be drilled just for Brent, Shimpo or any other wheel on request.

Carry no extra charge for custom drilling or for no drilling. You specify center-to-center distance and hole size (2 holes only).

The 13 and 15 inch diameters are made in those sizes so that, when used on standard 12 or 14 inch wheelhead, 1/2 inch of the bat overhangs  all the way around the wheelhead, making it much easier to remove the bat from the wheel without disturbing the thrown piece. No more prying, no more broken fingernails!

North Star Bats

PRODUCTION BAT MATERIAL

Standard production bats are made in several sizes of three different materials:

Duron - Often called "Masonite" is 1/4 inch thick, smooth on both sides, least expensive. Cartons of 12.

Medex - Wood product without formaldehyde, 3/8 inch thick. Handles clay like wood or Duron. Water proof, no warping, extremely strong. Will not degrade like particle board. More expensive but PERMANENT. Cartons of 6.

Plastic - 1/4 inch thick, matte finish on both sides to hold and release clay more easily. Cartons of 10.

All production bats but one are simple flat circles intended for wheelheads with two batpins.

 


The Universal Bat System

The Universal Insert Bat, which saves a great amount of shelf space when making pieces with a small "footprint". The outer bat is 1/2 inch thick Medex and the inserts are 1/4 inch Duron which fit flush with the top of the outer bat. The inserts in 13 inch bats are 5-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches. Inserts remove easily yet fit snugly enough that the cavity stays free of clay and slurry.

 

Handy Handle Bats

These handy bats are 8"x8" and have a handle for ease of use. Great for hand building. They work great with your extruder too. For transferring pots, bowl, cups. or what your imagination creates, to be set to dry, trimmed, and glazed.

With these you will always have a hold on your bat!
