Brushed Motor Stand

Post by DaveM »

Hi Guys,

I finally have a brushed motor stand.

I have always thought that the Vintage brushed motors are beautiful and too nice to hide away in

a cupboard.

I made it from a Teak color, Mushroom shaped, wooden cupboard or drawer knob.

The motor a Trinity Slot Machine 2 also has Trinity purple anodized brush heat-sinks.

Purple anodized brush heat-sinks? What next!

O.K, here's a pic,

Cheers, Dave. :)

I like the wood work but in the spirit of things mechanical I'd use a huge 50t 48p pinion

Hi Guys,

Hi Sschering, What a great Idea!

I also thought a Bolink RC10 Foam front wheel laid down would look great as well.

My idea cost $4.95

Cheers, Dave. :)

The 50t pictured was from Integy and sells for $5.91

Tower stocks a Robinson 47t pinion for $6.20
A little smaller but still should do a nice job.

This would work too...I have one for some of the logo golf balls I used to have on display. I've thought of just poking a little hole at the bottom of each little dent for the balls and displaying motors in it...

I've always wanted that golf ball rack, I see it every time I go into Michaels. I did end getting their spoon rack though :roll:
