Gatsu Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Hello, does somebody know where can i find a cheap turn table display for model kits with mirror surface? I mean something cheap without any motor but turnable by hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got that reference. I just can't figure out how to sing the last part with all 3 of those. @ Gatsu: Seti88 was doing the pineapple pen song but what he said was basically what I wrote above.

I already swa that solar ones, thanks, but they seem too high to be used as a stand and the plate is just 5 cm diameter. About the other 60cm is really too much. The right dimension would be aboout 15 cm... Edited November 8, 2016 by Gatsu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatsu Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) Found this "lasy susan" http://www.ebay.it/itm/222002270284?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT and this mirror http://www.ebay.it/itm/181999486382?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&var=482379040457&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT do you think that 7,5 cm lazy susan is too small for a 15 cm mirror?

seti88 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) i thk its more of the weight of the mirror u should be concerned abt to be able to turn smoothly..but why not try it, its not that expensive...

seti88 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 your lazy Susan ball bearings would encounter more friction affecting smoothness..but it shouldn't be an issue for you if you just use a simple mirror which is light... Like I said just try it, good way to learn what works for minimal cost... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well including shipp. the lazy susan + the mirror would be 17€ to me, not that minimal considering that a turntable by trumpeter is about 23€ incl shipp Edited November 8, 2016 by Gatsu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
