See electricity in action! Includes all parts needed to build a working motor Teaches how DC motors work Easy assembly — no soldering necessary! Includes a key switch, 3-pole motor, and an illustrated step by step assembly manual Measures 4" x 7" x 3" once assembled Learn the basics of electricity the fun way by building a mini motor that operates! This kit teaches how electrical DC motors work and is easy to assemble as no soldering is needed. The motor uses a wire coil that acts as an electromagnet, and it uses a commutator to make sure that the current reverses at the proper time. The kit includes an illustrated step by step assembly manual that also describes theory and includes 8 experiments to try out. Measures approximately 3.2" x 2.5" x 2" once assembled. Tools needed, not included: -Sandpaper -Sharp knife, scissors, razor blade, or wire strippers for cutting and scraping -Small slotted screwdriver -Needle nose pliers -Ruler -One new AA battery (high quality Alkaline)
