This video is so realistic! Everybody tries to hide embarrassing details like getting glue on hands and stuff!

I would add a speed control to the fan. This would help minimize possible splashing from lower volumes of liquid.

Looking into a DIY stir plate for homebrewing. This is the 1st out of 4 videos that take the fan blades, or extra unneeded drag, off of the center hub. Makes more sense to me to do that.

Great build, did that myself in few hours and it works great.

We need a radio transmitter v2. That video of yours got me into the hobby!

Bob Marley would have loved this. Stir it up!

[RedSlashAce]

Very clever! I think I might try using multiple fans to stir liquid in a rectangular container 🤔

Excellent ! a much better version than the one visible on my channel (100% recuperation)

Hard not to appreciate the ingenuity here.

I was considering except its $28 to buy one and that’s about what the materials cost to make this.

I really didn’t want to sacrifice the parts intended for other projects so off to. Amazon where they have a couple models and both come with the stirrers. The $35 model is quite large and includes 8 stirrers plus the magnetic rod to pull the stirrers out.

It’s approximately 3000ml size. Wanted mine for mixing 3d resins before i start SLA prints and mixing airbrush paints. Having the platform lip so it don’t slide off for any reason is an another benefit.

Nice job btw.

Amazing! I Love it! Keep it simple and sneak!

Amazing. I was looking into what kind of motor to use to make mine, but I didn't think of using a fan (I keep so many of them that have intact motors but broken blades, in case I need parts, and end up never using them).

This will be great to keep pet water alive.

It seem low budget so i'm going to make it, not to mix chemicals but to brew cofffee.

FIRST MAGNET HAS ITS NORTH FACING UP SECOND MAGNET SOUTH FACING UP.

A parts list would be great for this. Looking to get a switch, is it a special DC switch or just any rocker switch would work
