I would also want to see what happens to that thin acrylic cover when a
fully laden tube ejects from the rotor at full speed. High speed
centrifuges are explosion-prone devices, and need to be tested as such.
Flying shards of acrylic are no fun...

The typical recommendation for using the dremelfuge are to hold it inside a
metal cooking pot - at least that will give you some serious protection.
