The one and only Small Pottery Wheel! Probably the best miniature pottery wheel in the world...
This tiny but mighty wheel does it all - it has incredibly strong torque, even when throwing large amounts of clay, removable batts so that you can throw continuously without having to wait for your pot to dry or haphazardly remove it with wire, a removable collector tray for easy cleaning, variable speeds and can spin in both directions, and best of all it comes in different colours!
This wheel has been a labour of love from two very dedicated potters, in our pursuit to create the best mini wheel for all the pottery lovers out there! It is made by us in the UK, using 3D printing PETG plastic to create the body, batts and drip collector trays.
With this purchase you will receive:
- The Small Pottery Wheel with drip collector tray
- Four batts of the same colour
- A printed guide on how to use your wheel, tips & tricks and how to care for your wheel
- Power supply with corresponding adaptor to continent of purchase (US, UK, EU, AUS)
PLEASE NOTE: The Small Wheel does make some grinding noise when used, which is normal due to the geared motor needed to give enough torque.
Due to the nature of 3D printing, there will always be small surface textures and imperfections in the plastic, but these have no effect on the usability and function of the wheels.
This product is not a toy and is for use by people 12 years and older.

This wheel is amazing, wonderful torque! The customer service was fantastic and they even honored a special request I had with my order. Absolutely amazing!
I love my mini wheel and have had it for a year and a half. I have recently been using it to make my wedding favours. I ended up needing a small repair and I was so worried I wouldn't be able to finish my project. After a message to the Small Ceramics team they provided free postage to return the wheel so it could be repaired quickly. I also received it back within a week. I am so impressed with that level of customer service. Thank you so much Small Ceramics. I am so happy to have my mini wheel back in working order again 😁
Great little wheel. Could be stronger. A booklet of tips might be handy. Centering is not the same on this cause of the size adjustment.
I absolutely love my mini wheel! It was even better than I expected and has so much power for such a small thing. On my first go I managed to make a (slighty wonky) little vase and my 7 year daughter had a go too and loved it. There's loads of power so you can lean into it without it slowing down and enough room to make a decent sized pot. I can't recommend this wheel enough!
After being keen to pick up small pottery during COVID-19 and having done ALL the research there were no products on the market with capable motors at a reasonable price. This wheel fills the gap completely and is a fantastic piece of kit. Great for starting out and getting a feel for clay.
