Kiln Crafts Daisy Wheel Shelf

Daisy Wheel Shelf

Ordered this for my Daisy Wheel as I find there's no room behind the wheel to sit my tools or a bowl of water. Shelf arrived promptly and wss easy to assemble although, weirdly, there were no pilot holes on the underside of the shelf to screw the legs into. I had to guess their position. I also had to buy a tin of clear varnish and coat the shelf as it appeared to be untreated wood and because it sits behind the wheel and will house a bowl of water, I was concerned it would get wet constantly and would eventually get damaged. I was really surprised at this as I'd have thought most people would use the shelf for this purpose and couldnt understand why it wasn't treated against potential water damage. After receiving the shelf, I thought it was very expensive for what it was and expected it to be larger and to at least be water repellant.

Fantastic product and remarkably kind customer service

I bought my Daisy pottery wheel from Kiln Crafts a few months ago and I’m so glad I did. It arrived with everything I needed to get started, which made the whole experience really smooth as a beginner. It’s been a brilliant step up from my Shimpo RK‑5T, which I’d been struggling with because of the hand lever. The Daisy has a larger wheel head, beautifully smooth movement, and I fell in love with it straight away. The batt system is excellent quality too — I use mine with chamois leather to keep it secure and it works perfectly. I also want to mention the level of care in their customer service. During a very difficult time when my mum was at the end of her life, I accidentally left a batt on the wheel and it warped as it dried. When I contacted Kiln Crafts to ask if there was any way to fix it, they didn’t just give technical advice — they offered genuine condolences and quietly arranged a replacement so I could get back to pottery when I was ready. It wasn’t something I expected, and it meant a great deal. Their kindness really stood out. I’ve since bought the new Daisy wheel shelf addition they recently introduced, and I’m just as impressed with that. It fits perfectly, was easy to install, feels completely secure, and has made my setup even more practical. I’m genuinely so happy with my purchase and with the people behind the company.

Neat shelf that compliments the wheel

Very helpful shelf for keeping tools and jug of water during throwing and trimming
