Thanks for sharing Rudolph
I'm always interested in seeing how people deal with the detail of builds, as I'm going to make spinners also.

cut the centre out of the backs of each with a 30mm hole saw, l,ll post a pic in a day or 2 when l complete the 4th one on how l connected them its really simple

Those junction boxes are great and easy to use.


1 bolt through both and 2 small screws to stop them moving is another way of doing it. I kept the wires on the outside of the junction boxes to make easier repairs and reduce pressure on the strip solder pads.


Yours do look very neat and tidy. Nice job

thx homer l like ur ideas too, just me being anal, l went with internal wiring, it did take alot more effort, even thow as u say the build is a good simply build for most to do, wiring internal or external, thats always a chioce, lol
