Kalk stirrer 2.0

[spit.fire]

First one failed horribly, the magnetic stirring bar wore through the bottom of the reactor a lot faster than I thought it would (I knew it would, just thought it would last longer)

Version 2.0 now has a brushless led fan (so I can see when its on), a larger stirring bar, and a thin glass plate glued to the bottom to prevent it from drilling a hole through the bottom.

By turning the speed up I can agitate it from top to bottom, in the pic its running at half speed so fan speed is not an issue.

Version 3.0 will have a variable speed motor with speed controller and hopefully be made from a new style vertex reactor

Put glass on the bottom :)

Did you make it? Where did you get the magnetic stirrer?

EBay, I bought an 8 pack

I ordered some stir bars off eBay too. Still waiting for them. Going to use a glass jar if I can find s good way to seal the lid or an o ring. Other wise plastic ones work but you need glass or something on the bottom so the stirrer doesn't wear though the bottom of the plastic

I cut I thin round class disc out of a piece of scrap glass and orca glued it to the bottom, took awhile to get my stirrers off ebay
