My son came up with an idea (we haven't tested it yet: build a box to go under your "world" and use a power inverter to run a drill. Mount the drill under the box and a big drill bit up through the box attached to the world to make it turn. You can make the world and hands out of chicken wire and then use big pieces of newspaper to paper mache over the chicken wire then after it dries paint it. Don't make the world too heavy for the drill to turn.
