Is this wheel any different from this one? http://www.amazon.com/Speedball-Artista-Potters-Wheel-Handed/dp/B00896MWQM/ref=sr_1_40?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF

It sure appears the same! By the way, we all really love this wheel. You can stand, sit, and it cleans easily. I have had people from 9 - 72 years old all use this successfully too.

I am trying to order some extra bats. I want to make sure I get the right size so the pins fit. Are these universal? 11", 12", 14"?

The pins on the artista wheel are 3/8 inch pins on a 10 inch center, which is standard. Standard bats have the pin holes at this spacing no matter how big or small the diameter of the bat. The problem you run into is the size of the splash pan (the brown plastic, 2 piece, removal pan around the wheel head). A 7.5 or 9 inch square bat fits nicely, but I find it makes me dizzy watching the corners go around. Other people say it doesn't bother them. A 12 inch round bat fits perfectly. BUT, a 14 inch bat may hit the splash pan. I never tried one, but measured just now and it is close enough to be questionable. You can take the splash pan off and then you could use it - but then all the wet glop would fly off onto you and the surrounding area. Any larger than 14 inches would not fit at all because the motor mount that sticks up would be in the way. I recommend the 12 inch bats. Don't get the 10 inch Shrimpo Aspire bats - they WILL NOT fit. Don't panic if the new bats fit very tight. I had to gently sand a couple bat holes to get them to fit. But tight is good. Loose bats make it very hard to throw. You don't want any wiggle.

Hi, is it shipped in a box? If so, what are the dimensions of the box?

Hi! The potter's wheel is shipped in a heavy box. It was very well packed with Styrofoam. All I had to do was pull it out of the box! I can guess that the box was about 36 x 36 x 12. A close estimate. Hope this helps!

How do you cook the clay ? Do you need your own kiln or what's the story??

Yes, you would need your own kiln. I personally have a museum in the area and they have pottery classes and will let you use their kiln. Great place to check out if you have access to a local museum or place that has pottery classes. Good luck!
