Hey i love this, great design and simple. I tried my best to copy it, but i seem to be having a slight issue. When i move it side to side, it continues with a slight wobble and it also slowly spins to the left. My thinking is it’s not balanced correctly, and it spins on the bearing due to wrong balance, but it seems very “loose”, moves very easily on the “u joint” and Bearing. Any ideas?
