Martin Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Decided to build a drying wheel. I purchased a universal rotisserie at wall mart. The price was right, $19 but it is only 1 RMP. Will it work? Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBait Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Have you verified this by turning it on and counting for 1 minute? Seems awful slow and I would say that this will not be fast enough if this is the case... you will probably get sagging of the clear coat.

Martin Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Thanks kbkindle I went running around town looking for a higher RPM motor. I went by another wal mart and checked out their motors. They had a different rotisserie motor but I checked it out in the store (finding an electric outlet was tough) and it was almost 2 RPM?s. Anyway I finally bought one at Lowe?s. If I remember right it went 5.5 or 6 RPM?s. It is a little noisy but the speed is right. I am not doing the xacto knife thing. I am epoxying screw eyes in dowels. I am screwing plastic caps (caps like you would put at the bottom of a cane or table leg) to the turning board. The dowels will fit snug in the plastic caps. I?ll post a picture when I am done. Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
