Can you please explain the wiring harness for your machine like which power supply you bought and what the term is for the water drippy thing lol... I'm making one similar and I have 3 cordless drills that I am converting to DC units. Should the drills be the same model? And are you using bungee cords for keeping the drills pushing on the ball? I have more questions but these are top for now 😀

I have more questions but these are top for now 😀 Here's a rough wiring diagram.   The power supply I used has 3 separate DC outputs. Each DC output goes into a speed controller, which then goes into the drill. Here's some links to a power supply and speed controller. These aren't the exact ones I used, but they are very similar.

Speed controller
I don't know what the term for the water drip thing is, other than calling it a water supply. I used the same model for all 3 drills. It's probably not necessary that they be the same, but I went that route so that I could be reasonably sure that they are all turning about the same rpm. I'm using a loop of bungee material to hold all the drills together, but anything stretchy should work. Here's a video of my machine running. |
