Egg-timer time-lapse panning cap

Pan a camera slowly for time-lapse video

Push the cap over a twist kitchen timer and bolt a small camera or ball head through the 1/4 inch hole: wind the timer to 60 minutes and it pans the camera through a full, smooth turn while it shoots a time-lapse. The cheapest motion control there is. Print it as shown, then turn it over so the floor becomes the top.
