Discover the Blue Bucket Pottery Bat System – A Cost-Effective, Warp-Free, Long-Lasting Solution for Pottery Studios

Our Tile Bat System is different in that it utilizes cheap, easy to find tiles. The system includes everything you need except the tiles, which you either source from your local Lowes or purchase our 15-pack of tiles, which are guaranteed to fit and are shipped right to your door. Unlike other systems, we include a pry tool and a shammy (like a batmate) in the kit! 

Kit Includes:

  • Motherboard
  • Shammy Substrate
  • Pry Tool

"Saw this product and had to have it, I have never used a bat system before; I have say I am super satisfied. I made several items and placed in a dry tub and came back several days later and set out to dry then added handles and trimmed pieces. Got the tiles from Lowes, 20 tiles for under $8. Thanks Blue Bucket tools!"

-Joe Chambley

"I bought this bat system after reading a positive Reddit review and I have to say I absolutely love it. No warping, extremely easy to buy/replace and inexpensive inserts, and overall everything I’d want it to be. Thanks!"

-Emily

"10/10 perfect! The bat system works great! Fits my Shimpo VL lite perfect. I had no problems using the tiles to throw on. So easy to clean! My “wooden” bats were always warping a little."

-Mindy Faubian

  • Cost-effective

    Because the inserts are just $0.35 each and available locally, this bat system is the most cost-effective solution on the market.

  • Warp-free

    The tiles and the surround are made from materials that will never warp, swell or flex, so you will never have to deal with warped inserts ever again!

  • Extremely Durable

    This will be the last bat system you buy. The tiles, surround, and the pry tool are made from durable materials for decades of use!

Dimensions

The system is designed to fit most potters wheels in North America, including Brent, Nidec/Shimpo, Pacifica, Speedball/Creative Industries, Skutt, and more. The only wheels it doesn't fit are tabletop wheels like the Aspire or Quark, and the very old ShImpo RK wheels. The hole for the tiles fits the nominal 6" tiles found at Lowes, but not the ones at Home Depot. We don't know why they are different sizes.

Materials

The Motherboard Surround is cut from durable, solid ABS Plastic, similar to a Plasti-bat.

The Pry Tool is made from 304 Stainless steel with a 3d printed PETG handle, the same type of plastic as a water bottle.

The Shammy is made from synthetic chamois PVA material which is super absorbent.
