(Ive done it several ways. I have put the epoxy on an spin it around with my fingers a bit an hang em take a few minutes an turn em then turn em againComes out ok u gotta wrk with how long between turnin em to get em nice an sometimes i get some spots the epoxy won't move to.I made a wheel my friend used to do em like this he showed me the wheel an i shared it with the guys on the other site yrs ago.i used a pail lid for a template an screwd 2 pieces of 3/8 ply together an cut em out with a jigsaw then i spaced the six small 1/16 holes around the perimeter.an installed hook screws made a hole in the center.an took the screws out installed the 2 pcs on a threaded rod wit nuts an bolts 1/4 rod makes it more adaptable to the motor assembly.keep the pieces about 16 inches apart.This way works ok but i like doin em inline like bm does I put a drill chuck on the motor an hook 5-8 finished plugs together with small s-clips i make outof the wire scraps.clamp it to the table an hook it to a board in the vise with a hook eye an a sampo swivel.I like this way best u can look at what ur doin I use a halogen lamp.Ive made some perfect plugs with this technique. but i gotta get a new motor the old one crapped out an the rod dryin motor i got won't work with the tension on it.BM posted some motor info high speed motors with some kinda reducers.Where do i get that stuff.i think 6 rpm's is a good speed.
