Giffin Grip

Description

The Giffin Grip is an innovative trimming chuck for leather-hard or bisque thrown pottery. Designed for pottery trimming, it functions equally well for waxing the foot and banding with oxides for glazing.

A simple, direct solution to an age old problem.

After a simple one-time adjustment, the Giffin Grip quickly snaps on and off your wheel. It halves the time previously spent in trimming and makes practical trimming shapes that would otherwise have been left untrimmed.

Fits: Brent, Shimpo, Creative Industries, Pacifica, Soldner, Lockerbie, Randall, Thomas Stuart, Max and More. Any potters wheel with a removable splash pan, or sufficient side clearance to mount a 16" (42 cm) diameter round plate on top, can accomodate a Giffin Grip.

NOTE: comes with a counter clockwise bottom plate for use with standard, counter clockwise turning potter’s wheels. Standard wheels in the US turn in a counter clockwise direction. Giffin Grips are available with a bottom plate for wheels that turn in a clockwise direction, i.e. Japanese wheels. If you wish to order a clockwise model, please leave a note in the comments field at checkout.
