We had one on the Ruschbahn, gears from the motor totally inadequate for regular use. In the Garden carp gets into the rings that line the outside prompting regular removal and cleaning. We did manage to somehow get the table onto DCC so that sound did not die as the table was turned but blowed if I can remember how after 13 years. I do know that it stopped working when the gears on the motor gave up the ghost, just far too small for a big lump.
