Build a DC Motor - Step by Step

I made a video a couple of years ago and it didnt do a good job of explaining how to build the motor. This video should have every step needed. Good luck building it. Thank you to Jacob Yarnell...Tim

    @Tim Callinan PLEASE--any time you propose to teach a thing, explain (before giving the dimensions of wood, for example) what you're doing: Give a general overview of both what the project is intended to do, and what it is intended to teach. Show the finished object and point to the main components and what they do. Providing context for the various parts (this does x, that does y) is essential to good teaching. Then show the fabrication and assembly. A parts list will also help those watching visualize the project.

    Hey tim! Love the video! The bolt you have with the nuts on it is called all-thread. The white pipe is pvc pipe, and the blue is called conduit, and the copper pieces are pipe brackets

    Did you have to give it a push, or it starts by itself? Me and my brother use to make those when we were kids but we had to start them by hand; we used bicycle spoke for shaft, Ï transformer plate for rotor, old relay wires for winding, antenna tube for bushing, and commutator. I took great care building mine, I coiled the spirals by side without gaps 2 layers on each side of Ï plates. It would make me mad because my brother would coiled his just like you did, he wouldn't take the time to coil it beautifully, but his would turn faster then mine every time. One day I will make a replica and post it! Thanks guys, it brought me old memories! I will never forget the smell caused by the friction of brush and commutator after being ON for a while!!!

    hey Mr Callinan, im confused about the direction of the current? if i follow the current with my right hand rule, placing my fingers in the direction of the magnetic field and my thumb in what i believe is the direction of the current which is looping around and around along the wire and i find that the force that the armature is supposed to move into itself (if that makes sense). Do you mind explaining where the direction of the current?

    Nice motor sir........ Just a few questions...... 1. How much power magnets you used. From how much maximum distance each can deflect the compass needle??? 2. How much wire you used for making solenoid or say how much wraps??? 3. Will it work well when I created a potential difference of 9V??? Or upto 18 V using a dc battery???

    well i didnt watch the whole thing, but already im shocked about how short time it takes you to build it and how efficient it is, so if i build it maybe a tiny bit more efficient and a lot bigger i maybe could get 1 hp out of this thing.....enough to move a small car, def making one thnx for explaining, just i want to ask you, how much hp does this produce? and also how much torque can it do?

    If you were to use a plastic pen as an armature, it wont create such a strong magnetic field around the copper wire, it will still work just not as much torque

    I think the rod is too long and the magnets are too far apart. Also I had to insulate the threaded rod to get the electromagnet to work.
