Starting to install the slip ring. This is what lets you pass wires up into the dome and be able to make the dome spin around without tangling any wires. I bought the slip ring on Amazon. There are several types with different numbers of wires and different thicknesses.
If you're going to buy one, make sure you get one with the proper dimensions to fit your application. Also note that if you get one with thin wires like I did, you can combine multiple thin wires together to safely pass more current.
