This is a modestly easy task, if you use a telephone cord untangler. I have "modified" a number of these to make 4 wire rotating connections, typically for feeding through the large turntable. By carefully cutting the metal part, you can turn 2x4 (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

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 (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
