Very good. Glad to hear. Sorry if I said anything badly, because you *can* make a big one if
you want to enough and approach it well, and keep spinning mass to a minimum, and actually calculate
the worst case forces your containment needs to withstand in a worst case event.

Instead of concrete, maybe two layers of spun metal with plenty of ductility in it by annealing
would stop a projectile launched from 3 inches away at max speed, and then the whole thing can be lighter
and become an OSHW product design some day.

You can use the above idea on a small one... A Thailand soup pot of spun aluminum with central chimney
can become a centrifuge containment enclosure. It might tempt people to check if the soup is done though...
