>>Anyone ever make rotating rings for a scope?
No, but I met a guy at the Oregon Star Party who had made a 10" and 16" with a rotating upper cage. I tried it out and it worked quite well.
His truss poles connected to a ring. Then the upper cage assembly was attached to this ring with rollers tensioned with springs and teflon spacers for bearings. The upper cage assembly was kept centered with the kydex baffle, which lapped over the ring.
