Step 12Wiring / Brushes
Using wiring connectors, connect the large gauge wire to the remote control "floppy" antenna wire. This wire is springy, so it will keep against the conductive pads we made two steps ago.
Try and use as little springy wire as possible (I later found out the it gets really hot, which is a bad thing).
Use nuts and washers to keep the wires off of the plastic and prevent it from melting. If you're using a metal bowl, I suppose you could use plastic shielded wire connectors to prevent a short.
Route the springy wire so that one of them brushes up against the conductive pad on the edge of the wood and the other brushes up against the conductive pad on the "nub" where the motor shaft goes.
Screw the whole center piece together and press it onto the motor shaft. Make sure that the springy wires are touching their conductive pads.
See Pictures if you're still unsure about the placement of the springy wires.
