Great job! I thought it would be a complete circle. I like the use of less material and space with the same outcome.

I definitely love how little material it took. It would all fit in the backseat of any car

This is a brilliant and simple concept. Excellent job.

Have you rotated the rotisserie on all of its sides? It may be more than a one person job to rotate to the last position? Very cool and handy. Thanks for the great video!!

Indeed the further you go the harder it is to rotate, but nothing that two people can't handle pretty easily!

Did you all ever get those plans in CAD? Will buy if so.

Nice work, but I surely did cringe when you lifted the back end with your legs and it wobbled!

I am going to be building your rotisserie soon, and I haven’t been able to get a clear image of the 5 sided plate (that attaches to the rear) is it possible to send me a clear copy of it. Thank you, I enjoy your posts. TH

I think I’m going to attempt to make a set of these too, thanks! Dumb question, but do these fit from both sides to rotate the bus in the other direction?

@Vangabonders

Жыл бұрын

The front rotates as is, in order for the back to rotate you have to bolt it on rather than weld it like I did.

Awesome video. Went to order the material here, but realised that I wanted to be able to flip it both directions, so I would need to do the bolt on rear plate instead of welding. I'm not an engineer and I wonder if there's any risk of the 2*2" tubes being too weak when drilling. The original has 2*1".

@Vangabonders

Жыл бұрын

Indeed in order to flip you would have to bolt. I don't think the 2x2 tubing would be a problem drilled but I am also no materials engineer. You can always go with the original 2x1 as its been shown to work just fine!
