Caroline E Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Hi all, I am looking for a recommendation for a de-airing pugmill for a classroom clay studio. Which brands are most recommended and best priced? I have used Peter Pugger before and it worked great but I wanted to compare options. Thanks!

Mark C. Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 For me its a peter Pugger all the way-the 20 VPM is best for classroom size wise I own a SS VPM20 and an aluminum VPM30 If you are using low fire clay get the Stainless model as it will pit the aluminum model Caroline E and Piedmont Pottery 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Min Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Whichever one you get I’m sure it will be a huge time saver. I would be looking at the ones that can mix as well as vacuum pug, this way you can blend up all the scrap clay from bone dry to wet plus throw in some throwing slop (if your students throw as well as handbuild) churn it up then pug it. I have a Bailey stainless that I’m very happy with. Caroline E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
