The Young Artisan's Complete Pottery Wheel.

This comprehensive pottery kit has a pedal-controlled pottery wheel and more tools, clay, and easy-to-follow instructions than any other set available. Ideal for developing a child's fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and creativity, the kit has an illustrated guide book that shows young potters how to control the wheel, shape the clay using their hands, and etch, cut, and smooth the surface using four finishing tools. Unlike lesser kits with limited paint supplies, this superior unit has 12 different colors, including a ceramic glaze paint that gives the handmade pottery a kiln-fired appearance. Designed for optimal safety, the kit uses synthetic clay that is free of the bacteria often found in natural clay, its battery powered motor ensures youngsters won't trip over power cords, and the 35" sq. plastic tarp keeps spills contained. Includes apron and 3 lbs. of air-drying clay. Requires four C batteries. Imported. 10" H x 8 1/2" W x 2 1/2" L. (7 lbs.)
