so my centrifuge starts
« on: January 23, 2010, 06:05:54 pm »
 obtained a washing machine motor, and a couple of brake drums (rear brake hubs??) and thinking of direct drive, hubs/drums are heavy though and bit worried by spinning them at 6000rpm, maybe cast an aluminium one and then get it turned down to get it balanced.......... we'l see pics to follow

Did you ever get a centrifuge built? I am interested in building one myself.
