Rotating Parts

    Hi Folks,

    I'm looking for a simple (low cost) way to connect two parts and allow them to rotate relative to each other. I'm suprised there isn't a standard part which I could just bolt to the upper and lower pieces that would allow them to rotate... I've googled till the cows came home and couldn't find anything!

    Anyone any ideas?

    I've included a picture below... the axis of rotation would be the cente of the circle.

    Thanks in advance,

    How big dose this part need to be?
    what kind of weight dose it need to support?

    I'm sure there are plenty of standard parts to do this.

    will something like this do
    swivel
