Hi Martin and welcome to the forum,  would like to see some pics of the cleaning machine so far, As you will have found on the site there are many designs of the DIY machines.

This is the one I made. I am still tryi.g to figure out how to add the drying station. I shorten the shaft to minimize the wobble in high speeds and on the jar cover I used a ball bearing which helps with the wobble. 3d printed the cover and jar holders. Jars and baskets bought in ebay. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Hi Martin. Looks very professional,  what’s the motor assy from.     A drying station can be somthing as simple as a bulb order a screen  or as complex as an element in a ceramic base.

Thank you, the mixer i got it thru amazon, not an expensive brand. For the drying station i was trying to get something with a fan. I was trying a 12v ptc heater and a 12v dc power adapter, but the conector was overheating.
