Circuit Schematic and part-by-part walkthrough of my Rodini motor - a Bedini SSG with Rodin Coil. Pause it where needed, I didn't want to make a long video of still photos. Magnet is 1inch by 1inch cylinder diametric Neodymium. Bearings are from rollerblade wheels. Enjoy!

  • it works with a batery?

  • @bejelmejelbelhelmel yes - it will work with a 9 volt battery, a 12 volt battery, two 9 volts in series... and anything similar. A typical 9V will run full power about 30-45 minutes.

  • Thanks Gem, looking for wards to it (and combining them )...

    the only thing i can think of to hold the magnet without too much friction.....would be some kind of blower, have you seen how a ping pong ball can be lofted by placing it over a vacuum cleaner that is blowing?

  • @rave - Compressed air blowing from underneath, yeah I've seen the pingpong and it's also like those little balls in gas station pumps. Good idea!! I don't have the equipment to try it out (I'm sure a fair amount of pressure would be necessary to lift the mass of these magnets, more than my vacuum/blower). But with the proper construction, that would likely work beautifully.

  • At frame starting at 0:50; what housing and bearings did you use? I'm looking for a setup similar to this. Thank you for the reply.

  • The bearings are from my rollerblades, and I understand skateboard wheel bearings are pretty much the same as well.

    The housing is a plastic 1/2" coupler from the local plumbing hardware store. It measures 1 & 1/16 inch outer diameter, and 7/8 inch inner diameter (where the bearing fits in). It is 1 & 3/8 inches long. I did have to sand the inner wall a little to get the bearings in.
