Retracting power wiring ?

My team is building a fork-lift-like tower, with a motor near the top to control an arm. What is a good (non-entangling) way to run power wiring to that motor ? The wire must extend from about 4' long to 12' long. I am considering a spring-retracting reel of flexible cable, like a trouble light, or maybe a motor-driven reel of cable, that parallels the cable that lifts our fork tower. Any hints on this problem would be appreciated.
