ROBZILLA Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 I use a BBQ motor and on my wheel it's one rotation per min. I don't know the rpm, but just look it up it works quite well. If you have more questions just P.M me and I'll try to help you out. Robby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coley Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 A good speed for a drying wheel is 5-6 RPM. This would be measured at the speed of the motor, gear box or whatever the speed of the shaft is turning. The further you get away from the center of the shaft the faster your bait will turn. But, it won't go fast enough to hurt anything. A rotisserie motor is perfect for a drying wheel. Coley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellure Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 7 rpms will work. I may be in the minority on this: we turn lures at a slightly higher rate and for a long period of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
