can i take this apart and just use the inside to make a revolving plate

WOW!!! thanks for responding to me. I want to make a cake for my granddaughter and want it to revolve which is why i need a revolving turntable. Your responce made me feel like I am in kindergarten (lol) but I am going to attempt it. Do you think it will be stong enough to allow a 10 inch layer cake, with frosting, to revolve. thanks for your time.

thanks i have received this and attached a lazy susan that i took apart as I only needed the plated, not the moving part. I need to put a 'box' under it so it does not shut the switch off when i place it on the table. It also makes a lot of noise which i really do not like. it will rin the presentation. Perhaps i can play some music to drown out the sound. thanks to all those who responded

It's possible, but I think you are better of just putting something in the slot that is already rotating and spinning it on top of the device. There is a bunch of gear reduction inside, so you would have to deal with that.

I don't think you'd have to take it apart (there are TON of gears in there). For any purpose (other than grilling), you'll need a piece of 5/16 square stock (any decent hardware store has it). I'd take a "lazy Susan" apart and securely attach some plywood or whatever to the bottom of the disc that rotates, making a secure square which would receive the square metal stock. Drill a clearance hole in the bottom (stationary) disc and mount this motor beneath it. I haven't done it, but have considered it.

I don't think so. I cut out a piece of aluminum plate that I picked up in Lowe's. I think you'll have to go into invention mode.

Not easily, although it arrives disassembled so I guess you could take it apart again. It's small so I was able to put it all in a closet when not in use

In the years I've had this I"ve never done that. Since you asked the question and I'm sort-of-fixit person, I looked it over. It should be easy to do. there are three small phillips screws that need to be removed from each plate. The plates should just drop out once removed.

No. It would break. I made the molds then just stuck the two halves together. It worked great.

That depends. If you don't mind the risk that it will look like crap and maybe not work properly then, yes you can probably disassemble it and have a go.

I would not glue the pieces together, period. They do not separate. The metal "spine" makes separation virtually impossible. Plus, if you ever want to do a dismantle of the model you are up that proverbial "creek!"

I think you technically can as each division is held together by a plastic screw. Eventually we plan on changing the plastic screws to metal bolts and nuts.

This should be no problem. Depending on how many cuts you want to make (i.e.- once across theplate's width, cut around the perimeter, etc.), it may require more than one cutting disk. Good luck!PeteObviously, usual safety precautions should be observed. one cutting disk

I think it would be tough to do on your own, but not impossible. The best thing to do would be lay out all of the pieces where they go because there are a lot of them and it can get a little confusing. I love my machine so it's worth the trouble.

I have two microwave ovens. One does not spin, so I have no problems in that respect. I love my boat. Have given one to five relatives and friends. can you take out the plate?

Not easily. Very difficult to disassemble and reassemble. I returned mine when I tried to take it apart prior to using. Does not come with any directions to guide the user. So, just not worth the effort.

I would echo the previous answer, it is really easy to take apart, but I would be careful as twisting the base easily can cracking.
2030424
Yes. I used parts to make the shape that I wanted. The top is in sections probably depending on width. Very easy to work with.

I'm so happy you asked. I hadn't even thought about that but yes you can. The booked is actually screwed shut so if you have a screwdriver it is doable.
1403561
Yes you can but it is a little tricky due to the whole thing being plastic. Alignment is the key or the magnets will not hold it in the retracted position. You will have to be careful and use small screws and placement is critical. It isn't designed for it.

hi, you can use any plates. i used old ones and just opened the small center hole with a drill.
