Jam a mixing paddle on the end of a corded drill.

The drill motor rotates way too fast. it should rotate about 1 cycle per second
>>963046
So throttle it.
Jesus christ, you're not even trying. This is /diy/, not /handholding/

yeah i don't know why that dummy even bothered to reply to this thread
>>963059
Yeah fuck him.

well what you're gonna want to do, is order some copper magnet wire, various magnets. some shielding, some steel stock, and have a decent sized lathe to use, and an end mill. CNC machine would be quicker on some parts but not everything since its gonna be custom anyway.

Unrelated, but I had shoot a horse and couldn't get him out of the barn first, he was fairly young and couldn't have weighed more than 600lbs so I just picked him up over my shoulder and half carried half dragged him 300 yards. I impressed the hell out of the neighbor girl who was watching from across the fence, but I guess I undid that when I walked over to her covered in dirt and horse blood. Really should have jumped in the creek first.

Put a stick up your arse and stop using faux-french.
Sad to see nobody is giving good advice. I'll give it a shot.
Turntable, bundt pan and a baffle or two?
maybe this ?
>>964607
or this ?
My shitty concepts.

conch has grinding stones on it to crush chocolate and slowly generate heat via friction, paddles/spirals won't accomplish that and would just agitate the chocolate

oh ok

It's extremely weird that I know this, but

Just buy this little guy. I met a chocolatier who raved about it--he uses it for testing recipes before putting it through industrial size machines he got from Brazil.
IIRC he occasionally used a heat gun to get the friction action started, or heated up the stones.
You could DIY but honestly I'd bet you'd spend about the same money for mediocre results, and you're probably more interested in getting down to making chocolate instead of fiddling with motors, sourcing grinding stones, and all that kind of shit.
