Ok, so changed to a BBQ rotisserie from the little DC motor, mainly because I cannot be bothered trying to join the two shafts.
Video showing it working, still some minor modifications to make and then double the number of slots to increase the rate of bullets down the tube!
Next time I would use a bit of 250mm Sewer grade PVC pipe, this bucket is a little light weight, but it seems to work OK. I'm certainly not the woodworking craftsman that some of you are, but this seems to do the trip.
Just need to add a drop tube and progressive press.
