Mini English wheel

[pressbrake1]

by the looks of them going to be worth the wait.

Can't wait to take delivery of mine from Clive once machined and finished.

Would rather support the little people that do the work rather than anyone else.

Will be interested in knowing what other colours etc the others are going.

Thanks
I can’t afford loads of colours , it has all got out of hand
I’m going grey like the 24” wheel I made @Stueeee or Kawasaki green cos I’ve got loads of that! Also I’ve got blue

Wow! Those castings look lovely. A delight to see.

Colour? I’m going to paint mine with BS5252 blue. Nice!

Anything other than airbrushed flames will not bring out it's full potential of it's user.

They look fantastic . I too fancy trying an English Wheel (though like others I can't hope to claim I need one or ever likely to produce work to a standard to justify such a quality bit of kit).
I expect workmanship & quality like those must come at a cost I couldn't justify either (doesn't mean I don't fancy one though!).

FWIW - I think the Green is just the right colour

I don’t think I’ll be making the bigger ones anymore
My main market is the USA and I have someone in San Diego who sorts internal delivery.
Due to Ukraine war profiteering shipping has gone from £600 to £1700 in three months. Add in USA port handling of £400 and California import tax of £200 it’s all unviable

Will there be another batch being made?

You’ve got to admit my work is high class

The finish on your wheel is probably nicer than anything I could make with one ,,,
even if it only stood in the corner it would be a thing of great beauty .

I don’t take it personally, this is Britain and looking down on manufacturing is in our heritage
