A guy on the other site showed me how to make this. Pretty cheap and easy to do. Works mint. Google "Down and Dirty Plug Spinner". He made a video. Guess it's based off of Digger and some other guy's setups?

You can get 25 dollar motors in the BBQ section at Lowes.

The best motor is a dayton gear motor, about 60 bucks and will outlive a chinese rotisserie motor by a few decades.

The best spinner I've seen is Joe's (Rockfish9). He posted it all somewhere. That thing is the nutz.
Here is what I use.
Just a box, plexi doors, two bulbs, rehostat, on off switch, 4rpm dayton motor, wire spool, some angle iron and screen door rollers.

I use piano wire bent on one end that slides into a slot (with an index hole on one end) and held in with rubber bands.
Works well. I can spin 12 plugs that weigh 3-4 oz no problem.
Hasn't burned the house down yet, either.

Mine is constructed out of plywood scraps and stuff I had laying around. Uses a microwave carousel motor which I found on the side of the road  . The whole project didn't cost me a dime, however I just picked up a lamp holder I have yet to wire up to a dimmer so I can control the temp alot easier. A plexiglas window on the front might come in handy as well.

I built this one with some plywood and a few elect items.
Has a sliding plexy front window and a cheap thermostat on the inside wall.
