I came across this home made rotisserie made by some guy named Mike (aka pinballmike217) on RGP. It was posted on another pinball forum I frequent and he made a pinball rotisserie for under $100 of parts from Home Depot that can be taken down in minutes and stores easily.

Make sure you tighten all the black pipe super tight when assembling. Also, give the thumbscrews in the feet a good crank with a wrench once the crossbeams are positioned so they won't come loose. If you want to do a tabletop or sawhorse version, the axle assemblys stay the same. Just substitute everything below the axle "T" with a 3/4" X 12" black pipe and a 3/4" flange. Screw the flange onto the top of your table or sawhorse and get to work.
