So,Brandon emails me about a spinner his buddy has,and I decide to take a chance and buy it.doesnt look to hot,but I figure the parts gotta be worth the asking price .

Yesterday it shows up,and since I finally had a little free time,I took it apart,cleaned about a third of a 5gallon bucket of mousenest out of the back.install a new cord and....

Neon lights but motor doesn't go.well.... Just happen to have another synchron 600 exact replacement motor and that takes care of that problem.then spent a little time on that rats nest of wires that the illusion wheel mounts to,and straightened out the wheel a bit....
.
Tonight I put it all back together and here's what I wound up with
