I am prototyping a workshop idea for easter. Its fun but trying to center and egg is a challenge 😅 I think I have to 3D print an adapter or even the hole egg 🤔 Also attaching the egg to the motor is hard. If you use glue, the egg breaks when you take it off. For my prototype I glued a small magnet to the egg....
This will become a variation of my spin art robot. So i has to be suitable for age 8 and up: https://www.voltpaperscissors.com/spinartrobot

@VoltPaperScissors how about a tapered holder to do one half of an egg at a time? It looks like a great project!

@loppear yes, I am looking into some sort of cap that holds the egg with maybe modeling clay or something in it ...
