Jerry uses the motor that runs car fans--I don't know if that's something you can walk into an auto parts store and buy or not :) I have no idea if the cover is insulated, as it's attached in a way that I can't open it to see. But noise level is important to me, too--after spinning on the Roberta, I was convinced I would never want an electric spinner. This spinner is so quiet, even at high speeds, that I barely need to turn up my music to hear it as if the spinner isn't running. If you do make an electric spinner, I highly recommend a switch to control speed. My dh made one for me out of my old Ashford flyer, using a motor he scrounged. It has no speed control, and sometimes seems like it's going to make it into orbit :) Holly To stop mail temporarily mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: set nomail To restore send: set mail
