Ooh! Now I'm thinking of a roulette wheel. Those spin for a long time.
To both bear weight and spin, a lazy-susan bearing is not really going to spin nicely
(they're intended not to fling the condiments around, there's a lot of friction in
the design).
A phonograph turntable, or a sits-on-a-spiindle cup/point bearing, might be suitable
though. At the high end, an automobile wheel bearing (tapered roller bearing) can
take lots of load (assuming you can machine a mount to hold it...).
