Another one of those projects where the end result is not quite what I intended when I started. I wanted to use the Dynamo Pig torch to power an electric car but I quickly found that there was not enough power being generated to drive the car so I had to downsize my ambitions and ended up with the dynamo powering a small motor that spins a feather. Remember, these bargain stores also sell plenty of toys for £1 or less so the project is not about making a cheap toy. It is about taking something and 'hacking' or 'repurposing' it to do something other than what it was designed to do. I am using bargain store products to limit my initial outlay. The main components are: - Dynamo Pig Torch Small Vibrating toothbrush motor Tools - Hot Glue Gun Soldering iron Bargain Store Projects http://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB0ZqYUdxXaQaJdg-cs3dKIi Toy cars playlist http://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB3lGxxzEo_ZDnjnOtIlk50Q Toy Boats playlist http://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB24vUS9E8zkSgjZysEL00zr Rubber Band Power http://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1otXh0w36OwsYIHZznUWp6 Balloon Power http://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB2Vx0gKEqY4p9JBgqZqrHsr Wind-Up Dynamo Flashlight Torch https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1ka_zdkpT3NVnUtRRGlKVh Faraday Flashlight Magnet induction shaker LED light https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB0t9RB2G1T2ow9lnx7cq4_D Torch and Flashlight projects https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB0FJsoeUOx_Mhk3SPzmbo1F Dynamo https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB0I6JAMe457UMOX7j7A7YDI Merchandise RedBubble https://rdbl.co/2yJv56H Direct http://grandadisanoldman.cottoncart.com/ Teespring https://grandadisanoldman.creator-spring.com/ My Channels GrandadIsAnOldMan https://youtube.com/@GrandadIsAnOldMan GrandadsOtherChannel https://youtube.com/@GrandadsOtherChannel Put a rubber band on it https://youtube.com/@Putarubberbandonit Number4 https://youtube.com/@Number4GIAOM You can help keep my channel running with coffee and cakes at Kofi https://ko-fi.com/grandadisanoldman Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/grandadisanoldman Tinkercad https://www.tinkercad.com/users/fqjxiYyhfjE Cults https://cults3d.com/en/users/GrandadIsAnOldMan Playlists GrandadIsAnOldMan https://youtube.com/@GrandadIsAnOldMan/playlists GrandadsOtherChannel https://youtube.com/@GrandadsOtherChannel/playlists Putarubberbandonit https://youtube.com/@Putarubberbandonit/playlists Number4 https://youtube.com/@Number4GIAOM/playlists I have thousands of videos on YouTube, to find one try my search guides https://youtu.be/ceBSOoOHcgw or https://youtu.be/Zj4UgwkwYRk I am happy for you to show my content as part of your projects or in public settings, as long as you clearly credit GrandadIsAnOldMan.
