Large Studio Equipment / Slab Rollers / North Star Polaris CT-500 Slab Roller



North Star Polaris CT-500 Slab Roller


Combine the North Star 24" Standard slab roller with a specially designed set of Table Toppers and you have the North Star Polaris CT-500.

 

This table top slab roller is designed for teachers and studio potters who need a fully functional slab roller but have limited space.

 

Like the other North Star slab rollers, the Polaris CT-500 has two rolls, much like the wringer of an old-fashioned washing machine.  Both rolls have a small diamond pattern ("knurling") machined directly into the metal to grip the canvas.  The bottom roll is turned by the handle, but cannot move vertically.  As it turns, it drives the top roll through a train of gears.  The upper roll both turns and can be adjusted up and down.  The two rolls turning together pull slabs through easily, and the vertical adjustment of the top roll gives an easy-to-set and infinitely adjustable thickness from paper-thin to over 2 inches.  A reference scale allows setting and repeating openings to within 1/100 of an inch.

 

  • Thickness infinitely variable from 0 to 2-3/4 inches
  • Slabs can be rolled in either direction and clay can be added or subtracted at any time.
  • Roll slabs up to 22" wide. The length of the slab is limited only by the space and canvas available.
  • Tapered slabs are quick, easy and precise.
  • All machines accept press molds and a wide variety of texturing material such as burlap, plant materials, rope, cork and bark.
  • Rust free and virtually maintenance free.
  • Warping, curling and cracking are drastically reduced.
  • No clumsy heavy shims or boards.
  • No chains, cables or cast-iron gears.
