With the completion of the motor drive board for the Stirring Man turntable, the upper 2/3 of the Stirring Man is now complete. With the switch to a stepper drive, I was able to reduce the height of the drive assembly, resulting in a more compact mechanism. The photo shows the completed unit from the bottom.
You can see the wires snaking around the large black pulley and disappearing into the slip ring which transfers them to the bowl on the other side. The stepper drive board will go on the twin rows of headers once some electrical checks are completed.
