    I would add a speed control to the fan. This would help minimize possible splashing from lower volumes of liquid.

    Hard not to appreciate the ingenuity here.
    I was considering except its $28 to buy one and that’s about what the materials cost to make this.
    I really didn’t want to sacrifice the parts intended for other projects so off to. Amazon where they have a couple models and both come with the stirrers. The $35 model is quite large and includes 8 stirrers plus the magnetic rod to pull the stirrers out.
    It’s approximately 3000ml size. Wanted mine for mixing 3d resins before i start SLA prints and mixing airbrush paints. Having the platform lip so it don’t slide off for any reason is an another benefit.
    Nice job btw.

    Always wanted one of these, great video. Speed control sounds good, but I wonder if you could get higher rpms by leaving on two opposite fan blades and attaching the magnets to those. Magnets in the center of the fan mean high torque but low velocity. Of course you'd have balance issues if you had an eccentric load but I think it could be done.

    The stirring element (the magnet) should be embedded in plastic, or it will rust and show physical signs of degradation right after it's first use in water (let alone in NAOH).
    And besides a motor with more torque, a simple 555 circuit could have also been employed to provide adjustable speed, as a fixed one will not always work as intended, in practice.

      Turn it upside down. I know this sounds like I'm being a smart ass but a lot of DC fans only work in one direction and do nothing if you swap the polarity. You'd have to look for a DC motor, not a fan and then you could probably switch the polarity as well as at a potentiometer to adjust the speed of the motor too. He used a fan because it's super simple, easy to balance and usually people have a few lying around from old PCs.

      @@homoevolutus Thanks for the reply! Doesn't sound smart ass at all. I'm essentially looking for a magnetic stirrer to spin counter-clockwise, but haven't found any on the market. I'm not well educated on electronics or magnetics, although I should probably do some research and create my own. Know it probably seems like it's a pointless venture, but I have my reasons for it. It would be really sick if I could create a magnetic stirrer that could go either way. Even better if it could be set on a timed cycle. i.e. 30 min clockwise, 30 min counter-clockwise and set a timed cycle for it to go back and forth between.
