I've been kicking around an idea for making a very simple annealing machine. I thought it should be very possible to only use one motor for all actions - loading a case, spinning in front of a flame and ejecting it after a set time.
I did a couple of 2d MDF mockups, then built this thing:
It's progressed a little since then - I'm still waiting on some electronics to control the speed of the motor, but this is where it's at now:
