What is the potters wheel made of?

A potter's wheel is typically made of a sturdy base, often constructed from wood or metal, which supports a rotating wheel head. The wheel head itself is usually made of a heavy material, such as pottery stone, metal, or high-density plastic, to provide stability and balance during use. Some potters prefer wheels with a ceramic or stone surface for better clay adhesion. Additionally, the wheel may include components like a foot pedal for speed control and a motor, depending on whether it is a manual or electric model.
