| Popis: | An attempted to produce or fabricate a functional kick wheel have failed because some important principles guiding the fabrication of the kick wheel was neglected. Some of these are improper centered wheel head and low rotating force from the fly wheel. In this research, a design was generated in a bid to produce a functional kick wheel for pottery production using a marsonial wood for the skeletal part. The kick wheel was designed in such a way that the fly wheel and the centering can be self-controlled. Low cost of materials, reduced energy, lesser stress and conveniences during operation are all considered in the design principle. From the result of the ceramic ware produced, it was discovered that the machine can produce hollow ware with a well centered base with the advantage of self-reliant, no energy cost and less stress during usage. |
