Remote controlled future gunship... rotors kick off and spray horrid shit all over the shop...
Hang on a sec... this has been done already... all those lovely side product dioxins... dust those crops innit?
But in all seriousness I love the gums made out of my own blood I got from a similar machine at the dentist. Coagulate wooooo!

Keep the weight in the tubes equal and you can add a small motor, you dont need high RPM's unless you want to isolate ribosomes!
Actually for cell work if you use high RPM you need a cooling system to stop the cells heating, but the capacity of those tubes is idea for chemistry
work!! A small motor takes the effort out of it, keeping the tubes balanced is 3/4 the way to ensuring safe long operation.
What is the actual capacity of those tubes?

The tubes hold 18ml of water.
A 100mm x 15mm test tube fits in them nicely.
Edit:
It broke already.
Instead of drilling & tapping the clamp screw hole (clamp to hold it to the desk) they bashed in a short bit of threaded pipe as a kind of sleeve.
Needless to say, once tightened, this sleeve gets pushed out, so the whole thing falls off the bench.
Should be OK with a bit more re-engineering.
What can you expect for 50 quid's worth of Indian manufacturing ?

HA!!! Just like a mini remote controlled helicopter that's breaks on Christmas Day arvo hahahaha!
But seriously mini remote control helicopter technology has come a long way... well not really... just got way cheaper and designed the rotors to take
a bashing and still function as opposed to being made of spider webs and magic as they were 10yrs ago
