Yeah, I am thinking that could hurt someone. If it gets away from you. I was very happy with the way mine handled the weight. I just wanted to report that 1/2" spacers are needed. Heck you can use 7/16" nuts which would also serve the purpose of holding the screws in place for next time.
But, bearings and then a motor with gear stops.. maybe. If I wasnt already busy with other things, I would give it a shot to see how inexpensive I could make it while having it rotate with a motor. Someone else do it!
