WOW that is awesome!!!  How does a motor sitting on top of the toroid 
not get fried?

I have made an interesting effect which I have dubbed the Eye of Sauron.
Basically streamers radiate from a 5 foot rod on top of the toroid as
a very long breakout point. Streamers extend from the end of the rod
for another 2 or 3 feet. Not particularly interesting so far.  But
rotate it with a battery operated motor and take 22 second exposure
and you have a 15 foot circle of streamers looking like an eye when
viewed from above.
