Don't forget that the turntable has a very large hole in the center. You can
run all kinds of things through this hole. That gives you a couple of
alternatives:
- You can run the wire for the motor through the large center hole of the
turntable. That way it doesn't flop around, and you can rotate many times in
one direction before things get tight.
- Mount the motor on the base, and run an axle through the large center hole
of the turntable to drive something that rotates.
- If you need a winch with a string, you can mount that on the base, too,
and simply run the string up through the turntable.

Subject: Rotation Contacts


Has anyone ever tried to make a set of electrical contacts that allow
rotation? What I want to do is have an electric motor on my crane
using the
large turntable from 8480 but I don't want a flopy wire in the way of
rotation. Any ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
