    The battery is the wrong way up in the photo. Both wires touch the cathode…..

      Kawser, if you look at that image you can figure it out and try to build it, then use google to find projects and start with small and simple things.

      For that you need:
      Toothbrush head
      3V battery
      vibrating dc motor (salvage old phone will have one somewhere inside)
      double sided tape
      piece of wire

      Assemble like in the picture and it will move around line an insect..
      Really fun to make..

      🙂

        Only with the battery the right way!
        One wire to anodr, one to cathode…. If you were to turn the battery the right way around.
