A bat frame to hold a 6" tile on a potter's wheel. I use 6", unglazed, quarry files.

I liked the design by Pope_Sythe but I teach and needed a simpler for students:

Eliminate the need for a pad of clay under the tile: Added an inner ledge to hold the tile suspended above the wheel head. The tile cannot sit directly on the wheel head since it will cause scratches. Now students can just insert the tile and start making pots. 

Easier to remove tiles: Insert a tool (screwdriver, wood knife, paint can opener) into circle corner to lift, and remove, tile. 

Easier to remove bat frame: Inward angles, on frame sides, allow easier removal.

Pin pocket holes are 10 mm in diameter and spaced 254 mm (10'') apart to fit most of the modern pottery wheels (including Shimpo / Amaco / Brent / Skutt / Roderveld)
