Yesterday on saturday morning, Jim and I decided to try out the cotton candy machine diy video on how to build your own cotton candy machine. We took a few photos and videos. It took a total of 6 hours to make, but we substituted some of the materials needed that we diddnt have.
Making It...When we made it, it worked great. The super glue took a very long time to dry, but it worked in the end. We had our battery pack attached to the motor which span the candy floss metal box which you put the sugar into. It span pretty fast. Everything was working great, until we came to making the candy floss / cotton candy.
As we glued the metal box together, when it came to putting the flame underneath the machine to heat up the sugar, at first the flame was not hot enough. Plus the fact that when we span the motor, it just put out the flame because it was creating wind as it span around.
So, we made the flame bigger, as you can see in the photo below, but the super glue started to melt because of the heat. The sugar was beginning to melt, but as the super glue melted, the motor fell into the flame, and set of fire. It took 6 hours to make and it set on fire! I would of said another 5 minutes and we would have candy floss. Maybe next time heh?
