This one was a rental at a party where I am right now.

Would be great to make one like this.

Simple for a welder to make, and I see those motors a lot at yard sales. I
have two that I bought for tumblers. $2 each.

I will try to make one. Need to find cheap 10 ga steel sheet though.

The motors, this low RPM (5-8) are hard to find actually.

i

Rotisery (sp) motors are found at many thrift stores.
Or simply make a few gears on your mill, link them with a chain to a
motor protected from the heat under the bbq..and Voila!


I've pulled several gearhead motors from large photocopiers, along
with the gears and chains.
I have a couple motors from the jack screws in an electric bed. With
the limit switches removed ant the threaded shaft cut off, they are,
IIRC, 1/8 HP, 120 V., reversible and worm driven ~10 RPM.

You learn that in recycling 101? ;-)
