Very cool build, as chris said...your rosette is very elegant :D

I really like the back/top radiusing jig as well, does it rotate by that motor? I have been thinking of building one similar since seeing one elsewhere a few months ago.

Thanks a lot! Yes, the motor spins the dish and you press the rims against it. It was my first time using it and I loved it

Can you provide details on how the electric motor is attached to the dish? What type of mounting to the dish? Gear reduction?
Thanks
