LOLI bought a mechanism to use as a lazy susan for a wide cookie I cut. It rattled so much as it rotated I never used it. A friend suggested it might be very useful when family is gathered around the dinner table and the conversation turns to politics. " Anyone want more gravy" and rotate the server.
there is also a 6" sizeBeing only 4" square i think they may be prone to tilt and the lazy susan could scrape the base. My potential lazy susan measures 16" x 19" (ash cookie) so a small amount of tilt would be problematic. Is my concern realistic?
Woodpeckers makes both a 9" and a 12" one that I have used before (the 12" one). Very smooth and while not totally quiet it's not very noisy at all. A little more pricey but not too bad.Being only 4" square i think they may be prone to tilt and the lazy susan could scrape the base.

I bought a small one like this but it was a head scratcher as all the built-in screw holes had a plastic nib on the other side so no way to screw down without removing the nibs. Won’t work with nibs removed. Was yours like this? When I looked up how to use it seems they were made for heavy displays where the weight keeps bottom from spinning when top is turned.I bought this 24 inch off Amazon. Seems pretty solid and made out of aluminum. They have multiple sizes and two levels: commercial or heavy Duty. I ordered the heavy duty which is cheaper but still expensive. View attachment 225814
Thanks a lot for posting this. I ordered and you are right - very smooth & quiet.
