2791 did this in 2009 with good success. They didn't use the turret for autonomous so they just needed a few limit switches and it was good to go.
1714's 2009 turret used a very large acetal plate gear for a turret. I would recommend that if your shop happens to have a massive, ventilated plastic laser cutter in it and you've done that sort of thing a hundred times before, but for most teams it's out of reach.
