Simple Electric Motors

If you are looking for a simple science project, or if you wish to learn about electricity, magnetism, and electric motors, this web site has it all! Including assembly instructions, a section devoted to how these motors work, and I even provide all parts necessary to build them! The reed switch motor is the easiest electric motor anyone can build.

These brushless DC motors represent my 3 year school science project. All of them are extremely simple, and at the same time very stable, reliable, and efficient.

Time has passed since 1999 when this site was originally published. My son Stan is pursuing other interests and does not continue this project anymore. However, the business is still fully operational.

We tried to preserve the original information on this site but also added a lot of additional motors, parts, project CD, etc. with easy to understand explanations and easy to follow instructions.

We will always try to do our best to keep all of our customers happy.

The motors shown on this page were widely used for educational purposes in different schools and colleges in the United States and other countries. The kits listed here helped the students to learn basics of electricity, magnetism, and electronics. Many people successfully built these motors using simple and clear instructions that were first published in May 1999.

My science fair project was very successful. In 1998-2000 this project won various awards, including:

Grand Prize at Dallas Regional Science Fair in 2000 (Senior division) and 1999 (Junior division).
Outstanding Achievement in Research and Presentation of Engineering Knowledge Award from Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers at the 2000 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair at Detroit.
1^st place in the Engineering Category and 2^nd place in the Physical Science Division at Texas Junior Academy of Science in 2000.

The full list of awards and a brief description of my project is shown at About Myself / My Project
