a gearbox to turn a pig on a spit.


I made a spit to turn a whole lamb. I used mild steel rod and turn it
using a 12V worm-geared window winder motor further geared down using
ANSI 35 chain, weld-on sprockets and hubs to fit the shafts. Works
great and runs for hours on a 12V utility battery.


HEY NOW! That might be a relative!



More likely, 'The black sheep of the family'. ;-)
