For my previously mentioned laser cutter. I made a rotary axis that will be hooked up soon. I made sure to use a similarly sized motor to the one I'll be stealing power from on the Y axis, so I don't have to mess with the current. It will use a 2 position 4 way switch so I can change which motor gets the power. Just plug, and switch! The construction is very rigid with epoxy everywhere. I have attachments planned for tilting, live center, and steady rest. I'm also working on some way to protect the wood in case a stray laser attacks the tool.
