Awesome.
Do you have to keep the plugs evenly balanced to elmitate the flop.I have found if i go direct to the motor I have to balance the plugs on my round spinner.And it's only 17 inches in diameter.The gears in them slow motors have just enough play in them the wheel wants to flop if I don't balance the plugs..When they flop I end up with uneven spots in the finish.
Plus I think that by spinning em horizontally I got a better smoother finish.I notice yours are spinning in a vertical fashion.
Do you noitce any build up on the ends of the plugs..
Get your self some springs.Attach them to your hooks make some "S" hooks out of scrap wire.Leave one end open to attach the plugs to the spinner.This is a tricky procedure.You want to make it as simple as possible to eliminate the drops...

My first spinner had them horizontal and they would flop to the heavy side and it would leave a ridge. I had to tape the ends to eliminate any play. I normally etex after I'm done wireing them. I hold them with vice grips, etex them, turn off the spinner, place it on the rack, and start it back up. I do use s hooks from scraps of wire. I attach the s hook to the plug and use an elastic to attach it to the spinner. I twist the elastic to eliminate any slop. Comes out great everytime.

all you had to do with your first spinner then is to sit the whole thing up on end so you'd end up where you are now   maybe?
Humphrys, I like 6rpm but 8 is fine too |
