Step 11Solder the LED to the Wire Melted Into the Shaft
Bend the two wires melted inside the shaft into the shape of two hooks. Also take the positive and negative terminals of the LED and bend those into hooks so that they clasp the hooks of the wires. Wrap the wires continuously around the hooks of the LED until they are wrapped tightly. Then use a soldering iron to place solder over the LED and wire so that it is attached securely.

So, the copper wires are just to get the power to the LED? The way you were describing it I was confused I thought they were to help generate power lol. Am I correct that they're just to get power to the LED?

Yes. They are just used to get power to the LED. I melted them into the plastic so that the wires don't hinder the spinning motion of the pinwheel.
