Spin Art Party Home based start up (self employed) • 2016 - 2020

I have designed and developed unique and feature-rich spin art machines that allows userts to (potentially) produce art gallery quality spin art. This is not to be confused with throwing paint on a fast rotating platter.

The effort was halted due to the COVID outbreak and is on hold for time being.
