Oh yes! I've seen that.

But I was wanting to make something myself. I'm kinda going by the instructions made by Nathan Strum (the Cheep Spinner

). But, as it stands now there are 2 things I'll be doing different.

First off, I went looking for parts today, but I'll need different parts anyway... but, that's okay. None of the places I looked had a set of Patio door rollers - which is good. Because when I woke up tonight I had the idea of using a roller blade wheel for the bearing. I should be able to drill some holes in the rubber parts of the wheel (either 2 or 4), put in some rods(?), and somewhere, somehow - incorporate some springs for the up/down movements. I'm also using a CD Coaster that has had it's metal/foil layer removed and cleaned off with some alcohol for the encoder wheel. I've got a sheet of paper with the 48 slots exacto-knifed out, but it would be better to make a stencil and spray paint it. As for the fly-wheel... I haven't gotten to that part yet.
