Did a lot of fabricating when I was farming. I think the hard part of it will be getting the motor and gearing right.
So how many revolutions per minute do the al pastor machines in Mexico make? I mean the ones you see in downtown Playa. If anyone either knows or could count one for me this is a starting point. Thanks for all of the great post of help on this.  |
Try using a rotary motor for a grill mounted vertically rather than horizontally. Mount the motor on top and use a sheet metal shield to keep the grease away from your pivot point/bearing at the base of the unit. You should be able to find one at any Home Depot or Lowes.
