I have been saving these toothbrushes for ages originally with the intention of using the electric motors for model aeroplanes but I have realised they are ideal for Bristle Bugs. This is an Oral-B Pulsar toothbrush which uses a 1.5v AAA battery and has an off-centre flywheel weight fitted to cause it to vibrate. This was my first attempt. I have a much better video which includes how to get to get the weight off the shaft too. http://youtu.be/rAkSnCSv0Lk Disassembly playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1GrgALJEle2lVqOrR1sX6V Bristle Bugs https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB2WfmROVP1Pl5p_6MnWwgBx My Channels GrandadIsAnOldMan https://bit.ly/2T3x6RX GrandadsOtherChannel https://bit.ly/2yW5uYb Put a rubber band on it https://bit.ly/2T3OF4j Number4 https://bit.ly/3cG4fuZ You can help keep my channel running with coffee and cakes at Patreon https://bit.ly/35XFasL If you don't like Patreon you use Kofi instead https://bit.ly/3dNusI9 Merchandise on RedBubble https://rdbl.co/2yJv56H Merchandise on Cotton Cart https://bit.ly/2xZymOP Merchandise on Teespring https://bit.ly/2Zby02T Twitter https://bit.ly/3fMUgFN FaceBook https://bit.ly/3csbruk Pinterest https://bit.ly/2WTuuXP Instagram https://bit.ly/2WPLa2F Thingiverse https://bit.ly/35WfSem Tinkercad https://bit.ly/2WUrM4q Oldest videos https://bit.ly/2Z4RBl1 Most Popular https://bit.ly/3cx0lUP Newest videos https://bit.ly/2T3TryJ Playlists https://bit.ly/3dI9mdV I have thousands of videos on YouTube, to find one try my search guides https://youtu.be/ceBSOoOHcgw or https://youtu.be/Zj4UgwkwYRk #GrandadIsAnOldMan #GrandadsOtherChannel #Putarubberbandonit #Number4
