Spinner

[Marzio]

Hello everyone
I introduce myself to Marzio and I write from Italy.
This is my first year doing Christmas light show.
For now I have not encountered problems, but I can not understand how to make a spinner eight arms four

There are video tutorials on how to build a custom model, one way, which I have never done is to film it running through a special sequence. The other way is to graft it. Plot it out on graph paper and plot the points. Transfer that into the custom model setup.  I'm sure someone will jump in and give you the links to the videos.  I'm on the road today.
