I Can Answer Any ❓ Questions About The Giffin Grip Or The Bailey Quick Trim So Feel Free To Ask.
I had a Griffin grip for over 20 years. I actually wore out some of the areas and couldn’t get a tight fit anymore. They said they had never had that complaint before . But 20 years is a record. My family bought me a new one for my birthday 3 years ago. Still love. Maybe I missed the cost comparison. Good video
WOW! That is something Sheila. 20 years! Thank you for sharing😍
No, you didn't miss the price comparison. I did 😀
they didn't give you a new one? that's lame.
Your voice is so tranquil. I’d listen to you talk about anything! But I’m glad you talk about pottery :) thanks! Very informative!
Oh thank you Kelsey!😊
Wow, this is wonderful! At the first of the video, I just knew I would get the Giffin because I didn’t want to center. Then I changed my mind because of the cleanup and the soft grips.... and yep, I changed my mind again....because I can be gentle with the grips and I’d rather clean up the base plate than have to center. I want that precise centering for the pretty foot. I’m just too new to center myself. Thank you so much!! Without your demonstration I would have been disappointed in either that I chose for one reason or another, thinking I should have chosen the other. This way I can make the most informed decision. You’re a new subscribe for me, please make MORE. : )
That's wonderful 😍 So glad I could help. Welcome to pottery crafters.😊
Thanks for this comparison. It was very helpful. I was a ceramics major class of 1971 and it's been a long time (30 Years) since I played in clay. Neither of these was around when I was throwing on the wheel so it's a whole new world. I throw in a community studio so I need to figure out which one would be the most flexible. I love the idea of the self-centering Giffin Grip. Thanks again for the comparison.
Hi Mary. Welcome back to the wonderful world of crafting pottery. Glad it was helpful! I also just did this Video. Here is the link to help make up your mind. ruclips.net/video/dEfWuYJhX3U/видео.html
This was exactly what I was looking for, comparison of giffin and bailey quick trim. Thank you! Hugely helpful!
That's great Lauren 😍 Glad it was helpful!
Excellent comparison! You are my go-to for honest, straight forward reviews and tutorials!
Thank you, Lori. I also just did a comparison video on the Giffin grip and Giffin grip mini. Here is the link if you want to check it out. ruclips.net/video/dEfWuYJhX3U/видео.html 😊
What a great video, thank you !!
Thank you too! Glad it was helpful.
I actually thought you'd say you prefer the Bailey! I can see the positives with both. Thank you for the demo. When it comes time for me to purchase one I'll be back!
Thank you 😍 Glad it was helpful
Wonderfully clear, helpful video! Thanks again, and as always I'm SO grateful for your excellent teaching, Marie.

Thank You Kevin 😊
Thank you for your video demonstration and tutorials. Happy Teacher's Day!!
You are so welcome! Thank you so much 😍
Hi, this is Alba Beginner Potter. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Looking to buy my own pottery wheel.
Hi Alba. Welcome to the wonderful world of crafting pottery. This post may help you choose. here is the link for you. potterycrafters.com/buying-a-used-pottery-wheel/
I have the Bailey Quicktrim 2 23.5 inch. I struggle with centering but like the ability to trim irregular shapes. I have thought about getting a griffin grip as well. Maybe someday
WOW, you have the bigger one.😃 Even though I do like Giffin better. The Quick trim does come in handy with miss-matched pieces. Because of the differences is nice having both. Thank you so much for sharing Kat 😍
We designed the Flex Slider for Irregular shapes! ruclips.net/video/aHQq7lYeJfE/видео.html
Great job as usual. Thank you. I just got the Giffin.
That's Fantastic! It sure saves a lot time. You are most welcome 😊
Thanks for the comparison, I appreciate your time.
Thank you Tina. Glad it was helpful 😊
Very well explained. Better than the original creator explains himself as a matter of fact. Nice work. Thank you maestra! :)
You're very welcome! 😊
Dank je, eindelijk een goed film van hoe de Griffin in elkaar moet en werkt!!
U bent van harte welkom. Blij dat het hielp. You are most welcome. Glad it helped.
Hello! Thank you for the video and especially the subtitles. My English is not very good, but I understand you. Thank you!
That's wonderful. So glad it helped. 😊
Thank you. This video is exactly what I needed!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for letting me know😍
Loved the demo. Do either of them come preassembled? I have no patients for assembly.
Thank you, Dolores. The Bailey Quick trim has minimal assembly, but the Giffin Grip Mini has none. Here is the link for you to check it out.
ruclips.net/video/dEfWuYJhX3U/видео.html
Awesome so informative. Loved the video
Glad you liked it Vicki 💖
I tooo prefer fast centering! I am wondering if either can accommodate
taller narrow neck vases?
Good question 😊 Yes they can, but the Bailey Quick trims call them High Holders, and they are sold separately 😊
I just started a studio for fun in the garage. I would love one but these are pricey !!
That's great! It's nice to have a studio space. That's true maybe you can find a used one. They are built well and last a long time. Enjoy your new studio space. 😊👍
New subscriber here! LOVE your videos...I actually need to get in my studio and get to work, but I keep clicking another one of your amazing videos! I have learned so much today! Thank You!!
Welcome to Pottery crafters Debra. It's so much fun to get into the studio and create 😍
I got a giffin grip and I freaking hate it. You have to be SO careful both starting and stopping the wheel. Because of the intertia of the heavy top part it will tighten further when you start and you can CRUSH the piece easily with a heavy foot. There should be a latch or a lock to stop the top from spinning!
That is a great point. the new mini Giffin does have a lock and the pads are much softer. Here is the review for the mini if you are interesting ruclips.net/video/dEfWuYJhX3U/видео.html
hello, yes very useful thanks🙏💙
Glad to hear that Kiran. 💖
Thank you for this video. I've been looking at both systems lately and needed details at which one would fit my needs the best. You accurately answered all my questions about both systems.
That is wonderful 👍 Thank you for letting me know. 😍
Hi Marie i by the giffin grip and i'm very satisfy whit this amazing tools.
That's Great to hear Robert 😊 It really makes trimming fast and easy.
Thank you for very good tutorials 🙂
Glad you like them! Thank you 😊
thank you for share this video, it's so good, so useful
You're very welcome! 😊
Thank you, that was very helpful
Glad to hear it! Thank you 😊
Thank you that was very helpful
Glad to hear it! Thank you 😊
Thanks for the video!!
Your welcome 😊 Let me know if there is anything I can help you with.
Thank you, this was very helpful!
You're welcome, Claudia. Glad to show the differences to help you decide. 😊
Looking to buy, this is just what I needed……I just wish the GG wasn’t so many $$
😊 The quick trim is less because it doesn't have the movable parts that the Giffin Grip has. The good news is, the Giffin Grip is built well and lasts a very long time. 😊
There are a bunch of very inexpensive trimmers on TEMU. Any chance you’d be interested in reviewing them? Thanks!
Thank you for the suggestion. I'll look into it 😊
Thank You. I can’t seem to get my Giffin Grip to fit my Clay Boss.
The Clay Boss has a 14-inch wheel head it should fit. My brent has the same size wheel head. If it's too tight take it out just a bit at a time and make sure all three are on the same mark. I know it can be tricky because those marks are so light and tiny. You can also try marking the lines with a marker so you can see them better. That's what I did and it helped a lot. I hope this helps.😊
Thaks but you did not mention after i have got my megerment how i mark it ? when my megerment is smaller than 12 inches for my wheel?
shouuld i put the pointig sign on my megerment or like you at the end of the griffen?
Good question. Yes at the end of the Giffin
Thank you, very helpfull !!
You are welcome. Glad it was helpful! 😊
Hi Marie. Am looking for a trimming grip and great to see you did this demo. :-) Must say both are as functionable as they are designed for. But each also has its less ideal. The Bailey is easy to assemble but does not come with any extensions which means a taller ware or a no-foot pot may not apply. While the Giffin grip takes a little longer to build up but comes with various extensions for most forms. However, it sits higher than the splash-pan which throws off clay everywhere...:-( Did you have any solution to this? Thank you :-)
Yes you can buy extensions for the Bailey separately. Hope this helps with your decision 😊
@@PotteryCrafters Thank you :-)
Thank you for your informative video. I had been looking for more comparison information and this was helpful. My question is about centering a piece that is not perfectly centered itself. Specifically, I'm thinking about a larger/wider bowl, where the bottom may be centered, but the rim may be off. How do either of these handle that?
Also, what about a wide piece, such as a plate or platter. It seems with the Bailey, you have the potential of the rim hitting the bat pins? TIA!
Glad it was helpful!😊 You can trim up to 11 and a half inches across with the Bailey and 12 with the Giffin Grip. The Bailey quick trim is better for centering uneven pieces. With the bailey, the bat pins will not get in the way. They do not stick out of the holes. I hope this helps in your decision 😊
We have developed the Flex Slider III for centering off wonkey shapes and pots that aren't perfectly centered! ruclips.net/video/aHQq7lYeJfE/видео.html
You know how the giffin grip you can change to a grip that's taller without removing the thing from the wheel or removing the pot? Can you do that with the bailey? it looks like it's put on with a screw, and may not be as easy to change up. It looks like it would be sooo easy to drop those screws while trying to change the size and there aren't extras in the box. Or do they stay still since it's on the wheelhead?
Yes, you are right you would have to take it off the wheel and change the extenders. I have not had problems with screws (So far)😊
@@PotteryCrafters Thanks for confirming that. I needed to decide whether to buy it or not today. That info helps.
Needed this video. Are all those parts included in the packedge? I'm thinking about buying one. 🙂
Hi Sylvie. Yes all parts are included. 😊
Will either of these fit the Shimpo Aspire? Thank you for your videos!
You're welcome 😊 Unfortatally they do not, but the Bailey - QT2-12 - Quick-Trim II does. 😊
My wife and I both do pottery. She throws and I hand build, so it’s a great team when we work together. I bought her the Bailey QT2 (15”) for Christmas, as it was more flexible to trim pieces that aren’t perfectly round (especially made by newbie non-professionals), as well as odd-shaped or even “square” pieces that I often make. It’s also considerably less expensive (though money wasn’t the object).
The disappointing thing is that both companies, for the amount of money you spend, give you an “erector set”, and make you, the customer, put the trimming devices together. WAKE-UP companies and treat your customers as customers and ship them a fully assembled device! Even if you have to charge them another $10!
That's great that you are both into pottery. I'm like your wife. I enjoy the wheel more but they are both great forms of crafting art.😊That's funny “erector set”😂 Have them come assembled then make your own adjustments.
Have the Bailey and it’s horrid much easier to center without like your comparisons tho
Thank you Nancyl. 😊 I had the bailey first then bought the giffin grip and like the giffin grip better. My friend bought the giffin grip first then the bailey and she likes the baily better. I wish we would have known that and just switched😆😀
Alas, my wheel came without bat pins installed. I drilled holes and installed my own, but they are slightly off center. So neither of these devices which attach to the bat pins will work for me. Sigh.
If you can throw with 10inch bats, then you should be able to use the bailey quick because you can move each screw to where your pot is centered. You can also use the Giffin grip because it attaches to the wheel head, not your bat pins. Hope this helps. 😊
@@PotteryCrafters Thanks!
How do you feel about adhesive foam?
That is a great idea 😊 Thank you so much for the suggestion. I'm going to give it a try.
Hi Marie. Does the Giffin Grip fit on your little Amazon wheel with the splash pan removed?
Hi Miranda 😊 Good question. Yes it does. In fact I use the Griffin grip on it all the time. And use my Quick trim on the Brent wheel. 😊
@@PotteryCrafters thanks! Will be an investment someday. I think the grip is more expensive than that wheel and that’s all I have for now, starting out. Do you live in Arizona? You’ve mentioned a few things that made me wonder and your grocery ad newspapers look familiar!
I just received your comment. It took over a month. 😀 A bunch of them just came through from over a month ago. Yes, you are right the Giffin Grip did cost more than the Wheel. Close I'm in Las Vegas. 😊
Hi i am thinking to buy the griffin but any suggestions for the trimming going all over the place?thanks
Try Placing more little clay logs around your pottery. I really feel some pieces are not complete unless they are trimmed on the bottom. I think this video should help. Here is the link for you. ruclips.net/video/CyuaB8calOI/видео.html 😍
Thanks.I meant trimming with the griffin grip. I saw videos that all the trimming clay is flying all over the studio. I love your you tube channel
Oh yes 😃 That is a problem. I bought 2 plastic tablecloths and put them around my wheel so the clay doesn't fly on the floor. 😊
How do they compare on price?
That is a very good question. The Baily Quick trim is roughly half the price. But the Bailey is more simply made. 😊
Hello!!!!
Hello Sofia. Welcome to pottery crafters. 😍
Seems kinda lame the quick trim holders are not pre-assembled.
You would think they could. 😊
