I Made an E-Spinner | DIY

I built an e spinner, DIY, without ever seeing an electric spinner! I think it came out ok. Here are the LINKS for INFO if you want to build one too! Make sure to leave a message telling me if you make one!

BUILDING AN ESPINNER

MOTOR:
The XD-3420 spins clockwise and counterclockwise at 3000rpm. Comes in two shaft lengths and two different voltages: long or short shaft will work, get the 12v.

CONTROLLER:
This is the Controller I bought: DC 12V 24V 6-30V Max 8A PWM Motor Speed Controller with Digital Display & Switch
BUT GET THE OTHER ONE!

I would recommend this one Instead:
DC 10-55V MAX 40A PWM Motor Speed Controller CW CCW Reversible 12V 24V 36V with Pentiometer and Switch

If you want a display as well, then you can look for one that includes that as well.

POWER:
You will need a power block that can put out 3 or 5 AH, at 12V. It should come with the power connector that you can wire to the motor. This is not the same one i bought, but i think it should work.

Wire:
https://www.lowes.com/pd/Southwire-1-... or speaker wire will work as well

BATTERY:
WHEN I BUILD SPINNER TWO it will have a battery built in!
A 3 AH 12 volt battery should be sufficient to power it, and you can find these online for around $20 or less.


SPINNING PARTS:

Single Drive Ashford flyer (Comes with one bobbin)

Ashford bearings for the Ashford flyer

(I bought these two things from the Woolery along with a pound of their Heinz 57 Top for $15 which is recommended to new spinners)

OTHER THINGS:

A Wooden Peg from Lowes that I whittled and drilled a hole in.
A box clasp at Michaels.
Elastic hairbands from Dollar store (Used as the drive band)

I had this tape already and used it to mount everything: https://www.amazon.com/3M-Tape-4611-w...

I took apart an old pen and cut the spring in half with some fishing line to create the break band system.

I used tape wrapped around the motor shaft to make the channel in which the drive band lays. It seemed the cheapest and easiest option and has worked fine for me.
