XL Pottery Bat System, with 10- 8.5" inserts by Lucky Bats
$135.00
This model has generously sized inserts to handle larger throws and fits most Full-Size Pottery Wheels- Shimpo/Skutt/Brent/Venco and others.
The master bat is reversible in that it can be turned over and used as a 12" bat. Engraved guide lines help center your work on the bat. That is especially useful for trimming.
The Lucky Bat System consists of one 12" master bat and ten 8.5" (21cm) inserts. The master bat in this set is carved from formaldehyde-free 3/4" Medex brand HMR MDF.
Inserts are made of 3/8" (9mm) Baltic Birch Plywood, which is also a premium material. (Unlike masonite)
The benefit of using plywood bats is that they release from clay more readily than plastic, as wood has absorptive properties. This makes removal of the thrown pot from the bat fairly easy. Check out our video showing how easily leather hard clay releases from a bat. No wiring off!
Bat pin holes are 3/8" (10mm) diameter and spaced 10" apart to fit most standard throwing wheels.
Inserts fit snugly in the bathole and a finger recess helps lift the insert holding your creation from the master bat.

Got to try these out today and I am in love! They are so nice to throw with. Easy on my hands and clean up is a breeze.

Excited to add this second xl bat system to my studio for making larger items. I purchased the smaller Shimpo Aspire a few years ago and it has held up well. The wood inserts are of a much higher quality than the mdf inserts that competitive systems typically offer. Excellent communication and ship time by the seller. Thank you for making this available to us!

I love this bat system. I have ordered one before and bought this one as a back up just to make sure I had one forever! Love it!

Finally got a chance to use this system as my class was on hold and I’m so glad I bought this as a Christmas gift to myself. Nice quality. Fit on the standard wheels available at my studio perfectly. And so glad I don’t have to fight with wet pieces anymore and can let one piece dry while moving on to the next by just a simple switch out. The center piece fits snuggly. So snuggly that I did have a bit of trouble removing it once wet with clay and water. But a simple flat screwdriver to start the lift made it easy. And I’d prefer it be snug then sliding while throwing. Great product!
