DC Motor Bowl Finisher

thingiverse

I've been turning bowls on my lathe for several years now and consistently run into problems with drips when working with polyurethane, epoxy, etc. I designed this guy to hold a slow RPM DC motor. The Arduino board is not required, I simply used it to add a potentiometer which perfectly controls the rotation speed. Adding some hot glue at the end makes the bowl stick securely in place. If you enjoy finishing bowls too, you might find this useful!
