can i dodgy up a slipring connector?

[donkey]

hey peoples. anyone know how to make a home made slip ring connector?
I was hoping for 8 wires including data. I originally looked at headphone plugs and sockets but they stopped at 4, and am assuming would get noise on the line for data
as always your help is appreciated.

Here you go.

and a ready made molex one here

hey dorke thanks for this. after seeing the price I am thinking of making one more and more. might find a workaround to get me started.
at the end of my project I am looking at using about 6 of these

would this suit for data and possibly a 12volt line and 24volt line?
the current lines will be data1, data 2 (USB) scl, sda, 5v (maybe 3 amp max), 12v(hoping to get 10amp), 24v(hoping for 5amp), gnd
I was thinking of using the extra lines to double the 12v, 24v and gnd lines

It is rated 220vac should be no problem with 24V.

But,It is rated 2A so it wouldn't carry 10A,5A and 3A.
For the 10A alone you would need 5+5=10 wires...
not enough wires in the gadget

going to try a few techniques might be able to make a home version that works. I only need about 60rpm with low noise. but kind of need to stay with the power ratings provided for the grand scheme of world domination
