How we made it
1. First we attached the wheels to a piece of wood to use as bearings.
2. Next we attached the magnets to the bearings so it would spin
3. Then we added the coils (which are wrapped around a screw) and reed switch (which is glued to a piece of wood) The coils and switch are on opposite ends

How it works
• The reed switch motor works by having magnets spinning freely. On one side is a reed switch, on the other side connected to the reed switch is some coil.
• The coil/ reed switch are attached to a battery.
• The reed switch times the revolutions of the magnet and the coil push the magnets up to finish the rotation.
