What are you using to transfer the power to the lights as the carousel rotates?

I have 2 large circular pieces of stainless steel underneath my stand, with brushes the ride along it meant for 220 volts. It works perfect, could show pics if you like. Will do many many more lights on top then a tree stand, no offense. But i have several thousand lights on mine and its no where near maxed out
Family display since 1982
Plywood cut outs and motorized
Over 35,000 lights
New for 2011
48 channels of LOR (10% complete)
Roller Coaster (planning stages)
Patriotic Mega tree (40% complete)
Multi-animation skating Snoopy (Planning complete)
pics would be great. I need to run a couple of different things from it, and at least one will be blinky flashy. So I need at least 5 different power transfer points.
I dont have a signature.
I passed on a rotating Tree Stand at Garden Ridge. It was 90% off, but I couldn't think what I would do with it. Seeing some of the stuff, especially the carousel. I'm not very happy with myself. It was less than $10 and had 6 outlets for lights.
