Ladies and Gents...I purchased a homemade cigar box stir plate from a guy listing on craigslit. First time we meet he brought a flask and stir bar along to demonstrate how it worked. Sadly, the stir bar kept jumping off and he was quite embarassed and refused to sell to me. We set up a meeting for the next week after he had a chance to go home and play with it some more.
We meet again, with a new box but we were unable to take the stir plate for a test run. I purchased anyway.
Fast forward about a month and I finally have a flask and stir bar. Test out the plate last night and I had the same issue. The bar will start to spin, but only if I plug in slowly, but then jumps off if I attempt to completly plug in the plate.
I'm using a 2L flask with a 1 3/8" bar. Is it the plate, me, or the size of the flask/bar?
