Which Giffin Grip version do I need?

Most British potters throw with their potter’s wheel rotating anti-clockwise (counter-clockwise) but many left-handed potters prefer to throw with the wheelhead rotating in a clockwise direction. With most wheels supplied by Potclays this is easily achieved by switching the forward/reverse directional switch.

You must have the correct Giffin Grip for the direction the wheelhead rotates: When the Giffin Grip is rotated, the spiral inside moves the sliders that hold the pot towards the centre of the wheelhead so that they grip the pot. If the wheelhead is reversed the sliders will be pushed outwards so will not grip the pot.

The Standard-Direction (Counter-Clockwise/Right Handed) Giffin Grip sku:7023 suits most UK potters.

For left-handed people who prefer the wheelhead to rotate clockwise the Giffin Grip (Clockwise/Left-Handed) sku:7023C is required.
