This is one of the best spinning skull channels I found this week.

I needed this 5 months ago for my sister's cat feeder project..

Ah yes spinning skulls

I think you would find a 3d printer really handy for this type of thing. I was very sceptical of their usefulness myself for a long time suspecting I would spend far longer trying to get a print to actually work than just making it myself but now I have one I would hate to be without it, you can usually find adaptors like this ready designed for download but once you get the hang of the software (which is I must took me a while) to design your own you can just draw what you want and 30mins later its ready for you to use 🙂

I 100% agree with you that it would benefit me, especially all that I do for Halloween. However, I started making these videos for those who want to save money, especially if you only have a few motors. But, I might look into a printer. So share a link if you can on a good starter one.

@@brianbenson3091 Hi, I bought a used custom one myself which happened to come up locally so I wouldn't be a good person to recommend which one to buy. I personally would just look for a cheap one which is popular so there should be lots of support, upgrades etc. available.

Now your turning heads😅

I don’t want to bust your balls but it seems like while you were heat-molding the tube, you might just heat-mold your own adapter too? Here’s where you school me though. I’ve seen that motor “chassis”, but I don’t know what it is. I think “clock motor” when I see it, because I have seen it, but was like 1RPM and even less, as I recall.

Ya I’m still trying to find the best way to attach pipes since I use them the most. Creating a universal adapter that could be used for either pipe or axles or whatever would be best, but I find stuff out on the fly. I’m always looking for better ways for sure. Also, I had to look up “chassis” lol, because really I don’t know much. All I can say on that part is all synchronous motors I get are designed that way. I either screw them to wood to keep them down or on pvc pipes if making like a body frame. Hope I answered somewhat in the ballpark?

@@brianbenson3091 LOL, yeah "chassis" prolly a bad description, maybe form factor? IDK. I know that motor as a (very low RPM) drive for intermittent lubrication (which makes it really dependable). Its just a "servo" for you right? Wouldn't matter what voltage or ac/dc?

@brianbenson3091

All the motors I buy are AC with standard 120v plugs. When I do use servos they are usually small 5v ones.

You need a 3D printer! lol

I’m too cheap! lol. If you have a link for a 3-D printer attachment for these, please share! Someone with one of those would appreciate it.

@@brianbenson3091 I don't know if there is one specifically for that purpose, but its an incredibly easy part to model, even for a complete beginner. If you build custom things, you can't go wrong by going down that road!
