Thank you, 24 volts at 45 rpm. Tell you the truth I do not know where to look. If you can steer me in the right direction, or can get one for about 20. Please let me know.

Well I took the gear box off and the motor is very quiet. The gear box is loose as a goose. I’ve delt with many gear boxes in the past but this is sad. I have tried everything that I can think of. The only solution is a new gear box if one can be found. If anyone finds a solution please let me know.

I had to move from central Florida to north east Texas. I am having a hard time finding a shipping container for the long spinning rods. We all know casting is easy to ship. I finally found a source for 3” cardboard cylinders, they still are very expensive. Anyone have this one locked?

I don’t think lapping the gears will hurt at all, in fact it should cut down on friction.

I usually wrap some masking tape on the rod where the rollers are. That way you don’t have to clean up as much and there is not a chance of marking the rod.

Thank you for that info, I’ll try it and it may help. I took electrical tape and took it around the gear box a few times and the insulation helped.

Well after all the advice I took mine apart. The motor is quite enough, turns well, but the gear box was almost dry, after lubricating it still sounded like a box of rocks. The gears need to be reworked and I know it can be much much quieter.

I really like them and have ordered several in different colors to see which is best. Mudhole comes thru again. Thanks.

I hope they can fix it because I do like it when my others are in use. The noise is not right on such a little motor. And I would never let it turn by it’s self at night, I’m afraid of burning my house down.

If you stick with the advice that you get from the experts at mudhole you will be in good shape. Go slow you with the build.

I have tried the new dryer and it’s not very good. Twice I’ve gotten new ones and the quality control is bad. The electrical connections inside the controller came loose without stressing them. The motor is very noisy, sounds like a box of rocks. I hope I can find a good one but I am very disappointed. This is not CRB standards.
