Simple 360° Rotary plate (optional motorized)
Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6217675.
A motorized turntable for various applications, like 360° videos,… super easy to assemble (only 3 parts) and perfect for a first small electronics project. .
After uploading a small washing machine, I realized that I didn't have any good photos or videos of it in its finished state. So I tried to take some photos and, being a pragmatic person, I built a small turntable to take 360° videos. I still had the parts from the mini washing machine ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6147167 ), so this turntable uses the same parts. (If you buy them for this rotary plate, you can use them also for the washing machine and vice versa).
The platter works quite well, but is certainly not perfect yet, so there is a chance that I will tweak it here and there.
