This is the difficult part, giving the LED's a power source while on the spool and spinning.
First I soldered a piece of wire on the rotor of the motor and I soldered another piece of wire on the motor case, this will be the positive power input.
I made two aluminum rings using aluminum tape (you can use one ring if you like) and taped it on the bottom of the spool and I attached the wires to both aluminum rings, that will be the negative power output.
