In this video he let the object turn around for better results. Maybe a solution for you instead of the magnetic stirror.
Thanks. Yeah, I thought about that, but there's one downside: one motor = one detal... I still want to make more than just one at a time. And such a mechanism isn't that easy to assemble, since it's gears that reduce speed, and they need to be printed, and I'm too lazy.))) I just ordered a mixer for 4 euros and it's ready. ROTF

Sergey, thanks for the very detailed and educational tutorial. I appreciate the amount of time you've invested to document and share with everyone! The scientist in me makes me want to put together a shopping list and start my own experiments.

Alas, if I had any time at all right now, I'd be happy just working on my ship. With this said, I do respect those, like yourself, with the talent, patience and perseverance to do this and every fabrication task themselves.

Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the kind words. Yes, experimenting takes a lot of time and effort, and I'm glad someone besides me will benefit from it. There's a lot about this topic online, but little specifically related to our hobby. I've tried to change that. I might not be doing everything right, but I think the result is what matters. If everything turns out the way I want, it will be worth it and I can confidently recommend it.
