Hacking a rotisserie motor=effective mechanical deer deterrent

I've managed to solve the rotisserie motor friction problem by deleting the plastic case it comes in.

This means you now have to use some glue or epoxy to secure the support arm to the motor shaft. At first I was unsure of how long the glue would last due to the issue of gravity, but I've had the above deer deterrent going for almost 2 weeks now with no problems.


You'll need to cut the black plastic case in order to get the power cord out. The switch should just pop out. A coping saw worked for me, but I'll bet a hack saw would also get the job done. Be careful not to cut any wires or fingers.

I changed this one from a clanging sound to a booming noise in an effort to keep things mixed up.
