One very small tip for a simple rotational ground connection. A few commercial units I've seen use a flat, braided copper strap, wrapped around the main shaft of the turn table. One end of the strap has a lug to connect to the welding power supply and the other end has a tension spring to pull the strap tight around the shaft. Works suprisingly well.
