I recently made a magnetic stir plate to assist in dissolving NaOH in water and also for mixing the Naptha for pulls. No more shaking the livin bejeesus out of your extractions! Just flick a switch.

Materials Needed:

Small sheet of plywood
Small fan motor
Strong magnets (got mine from an old hard drive)
Plastic hardware bin
Magnetic stir bar ***regular screws will react in the basic solution! Not advised!!!!
Various screws and such


Assembly:

Cut plywood to the bin size
Mount fan motor to the plywood(I made this one height adjustable)
Secure magnets on top of the motor
Cover the motor and magnets with the plastic bin and secure
Dump your goods into the beaker and ledder buck!

Using a stir plate gives confidence that all the atoms within the beaker are saying "hello" to each other. I hope you enjoy!

Be well and travel safe.
Much love

Interesting, I may have to try this, sounds like it would be simple to create Smile
I am also getting a bit sick of mixing around the naptha for pulls.

Teflon coated stir bar. The screw is for demonstration purposes only

I have done this using a cheap computer fan, some dime-a-dozen neodymium magnets, and an old cellphone AC-DC adapter. It functions quite well and the cost can come out to less than ten dollars! Highly recommended if you're willing to spend a bit of time tinkering.
"The peak experience might be likened to a spot on a mountain top from which the surrounding panorama may be viewed; yet being on the top of the mountain does not supply more than the possibility of seeing, whereas this process of observation is different from that of mountain climbing[...]insight is distinct from the mental state from which it originates, and constitutes the result of a creative act in which consciousness at a certain height is directed toward what lies below."
--Claudio Naranjo

There is no becoming, no revolution, no struggle, no path.
Already you are the monarch of your own skin.
