Electric Wheels
Skutt Potter's Electric Wheels are the ultimate wheels for professional potters and schools. The POWER, DESIGN, & DURABILITY of our electric wheels is unmatched by any other wheel on the market today.
All Skutt Potter's Wheels are built on a heavy cast aluminum base that is powder coated for a durable, elegant, and easy to clean finish. Each wheel comes equipped with our special cast aluminum foot pedal with smooth action and precision control.
Continual duty motors are used on every Skutt Potter's Electric Wheel and our motors are almost twice the size of the standard peak rated motors that are used on most potter’s wheels. Two different 1/3hp wheels can produce a completely different amount of torque at the wheel head. The torque a wheel produces is the amount of power you have to center clay. Our 1/3hp motor puts out more torque than most competitors’ 1/2hp motors. All of our models are convincingly stronger than their counter parts.
Each wheel has an
industrial grade motor controller that controls the
minimum and maximum speeds, senses the feedback from
the motor, and provides constant torque through all
speed ranges.

wheels with an expanded area for clay collection.

Kick Wheels
The Skutt Potter's Kick Wheel
Built since 1970, Skutt Thomas Stuart Signature Series kick wheels are designed for maximum performance and durability. They are built to the highest standards of quality and meet the most stringent demands of both professional and amateur potters.
Some of the kick wheel’s distinctive characteristics:
- Bolt-together construction allows you to assemble the wheel in place, eliminating the difficulties of transporting the wheel around tight corners and stairways.
- The frame is made of rigid, rust proof, steel pipe. Its unique 4-point stance offers stability unmatched in the market today.
- The attached seat is completely adjustable; both forward and back, up and down, and is combined with adjustable footrests, making the Skutt Potter's wheel comfortable for potters of all sizes.
- The large tabletop and seat are made of selected plywood and are sealed with several coats of a marine varnish for lasting durability. There are anti-skid surfaces on both the footrests and the flywheel.
- A 140-pound flywheel allows the wheel head to spin much longer. It is accurately cast with two inches of concrete. Each flywheel is individually balanced for precision.
- The flywheel turns a standard 14" cast aluminum wheel head
Additional Features

Options
The cup
head system can be interchanged
with the wheel head for use with plaster bats that
simply drop into place. These plaster bats
can be made inexpensively with either the 12" or
16" mold.
The shaft extension raises the wheel head above the base for throwing or trimming oversized pots. Simply lift the wheel head off, place the shaft extension on the shaft & replace the wheel head. (Built-in splash pan models only)
The popular adjustable leg extensions easily convert any of our wheels into a stand up wheel by utilizing the unique cast aluminum clamp that attaches to the 2” pipe leg. These legs make the wheel infinitely adjustable to a maximum 30" in height.
Kick Wheel Options
The cast aluminum splash pan is designed to slip on and off with ease. It will provide support for resting hands and arms while throwing.
The bat mold system for the kick wheel incorporates strong plaster bats that are cast with pins protruding from the bats, rather than the wheel head. These pins fit into small holes drilled in the wheel head and are held in place without the use of slip. Simply tighten the ring mold around the wheel head and cast as many bats as you desire.
Motor Attachment
The motor
attachment has a 1/3 horsepower
motor, which is totally enclosed to prevent dust
from damaging its internal components. The drive
system features a rubber drive wheel, which contacts
the edge of the concrete flywheel. The motor
attachment contains an internal on/off switch that
is activated when pressure is applied to the foot
lever.
The motor attachment can be added to the wheel at
any time without any modification.
