Power plant electrician here…THIS IS AWESOME!!! I love seeing stuff like this to show kids & get them interested in this stuff! We need kids to take an interest in this. Trade jobs are ripe with opportunity & this is where it all begins, learning something cool & adding onto it from there.
Electrical engineer here. This isn't as good anymore. Kids should start at arduino in which they are already do
@@humble2246 different strokes for different folks I guess
@@humble2246 Why go to elementary school, when you can simply take a 204 level physics class?
@@nobody8717 its not that hard... Like at all
@@nobody8717 i've seen kids young as 8 do it.
I'm a middle-aged dude from Los Angeles, and I've been enjoying Curiosity Show on UA-cam for years! I would have watched this show religiously as a kid, (I loved me some Mr. Wizard), but more importantly, I watch it today. Rob and Deane, thank you for your contributions to knowledge!
G'day Russ,
I did get to watch Curiosity Show as a kid & yeah I loved it so much got upset if I couldn't,
I especially loved watching it with Grandpa as after we would make the experiments/crafts together in Grandpa's garage👴🥰, while Grandpa is no longer here watching again on UA-cam I feel that love it helped us share.
Mr Wizard was the man!!
Our great pleasure
It was my favourite show as a young teen in the 70s.
I forgot all about Mr Wizard! Some of my better childhood mems : )
I wish I had this show as a kid in America!! Very fun to watch even as an adult engineer, saving some of these for showing my nieces and nephews!
I feel the same way. I would love to introduce my kids to stuff like this. The old and new stuff. So much valuable information can be learned from these things.
I did this exact experiment as a kid, thanks to Curiosity Show !
Deane and Rob were my 'minders' as a home-alone child..
💙
Glad to have helped - Rob
Thank you! I can't begin to describe how cool it is to see you upload great stuff all those decades after I used to watch your show every week! Dubbed German back then, thank god I don't have to rely on that anymore :)
Same. Back in the days as a child I watched the German version but today I prefer the original.
This is just great stuff. Thank you, Rob and Deane.
I wonder if household enamel wire is still available.
Is this NEW Curiosity Show content?! If so, I am so here for it! Lifelong Australian fan here. I grew up with this show, and its super-high quality of science communication still shines through! I couldn't be more excited. Bring it on!
Many thanks
I saw the show in Germany in the late 80s and am still amazed at how easy it is to explain everything.
This is bloody fantastic. Dean Hutton. Thank you sir.
Whoa, is this a new recording? I love it!
Mind blown again -i cannot thank you enough ❤
Love this recommendation!
I remember watching this bit on TV as a kid!
Well done Deane
Im happy to see an "artline texta". God damn im old!!!!
I am truly amazed that someone figured out how to make a DC motor without needing any specialized parts, and just using common household stuff. The only part of this that's not in my home is the enameled wire, and you could just use any copper wire and only strip one half of the insulation, I suspect
If I would have seen this as a kid I think it would’ve changed my life!!
Deane looks so old :(
FatherTime, take the years back on this great man!
From the MacGyver School Of Engineering.
Comment for the algorithm. ❤ Grew up on this
I love this as a kid & am loving watching now too, although older I still haven't "Grown Up" though 😂
@@shaneeslick watching this show as a young Australian boy it sparked my now lifelong love of electronics. I now repair and restore old arcade and pinball machines
@@shaneeslick and yes we never grow up our toys just become more expensive 😄
Youre a legend
I got everything in my house. Tomorrow I'll do it! :)
there is an easier design which works without the rubber bands; you need the following:
wire, coin, battery, two disk magnets.
take a stripped copper wire (for example from home electrical wiring).
take a round cell battery, for instance an AA.
add a disc magnet on each pole; both maintaining the same magnetic orientation.
attach a coin to the bottom magnet.
take the copper wire and form a coil by wrapping it around the battery.
stretch the copper coil that it reaches a little more than the length of the battery.
bend the top end of the coil to rest at the center of the top magnet.
adjust the bottom of the coil to brush over the coin.
both, the disc magnet and the coin are assumed to be good electric conductors.
the copper coil completes the electric circuit; a direct current runs through the copper wire building up a magnetostatic field, which interferes with the field of the permanent magnets, causing the coil to spin around the battery.
This is awesome I’m gonna try making a toy car using this concept
That's Maxwell smart.
Damn! I don't own a pen to wind the copper wire around
Well anything round would do, maybe an old alluminium foil cardboard pipe, or the battery body itself
I know you are being silly but...
Deane did say you can wrap the wire around the battery too
I wonder if you could do the reverse and create a battery charger, because an electric motor and a generator are basically the same thing
Where can you get little magnets like these today?
ebay
the back of those dollar-store/poundland magnetic fridge animals.
Ebay or similar and look for neodymium magnets
MacGyver approves this
WAIT. IS THIS NEW?!
it's about 25 years old
@@thekaxmax I don't think so. Dean seems a lot older than the 2 initial runs of the show.
@@prudencepineapple9448 It's from 1999 from Dean's solo DVD, the initial run of the show was from the 70s and 80s, which is a lot more than 25 years ago.
This is old show from 1990s i think. But great posts for new audience like you and me.
"Curiosity Show" ran from 1972-90, after that Deane (this presenter) did similar style appearences explaining Science on other shows too,
the other presenters name is Rob & he is the one who replies to comments here.
NO no no, these copper flashing shorts skirts as killing us!!!

He uses the Spiralizer at 18:37 the wrong way.
Just put one finger in the hole in the handle and move that hand around. Don't twist the cucumber. It easier than he makes it look 😁.
Think you got the wrong video bud 🫡
Yeah I know what an rookie everyone should know how to use a spiralizer it's not that hard....
Good video. But I think the 'homopolar motor' is even simpler...
Nice. Just like a tesla.
Not to take away from this, but I think Electroboom's motor is even simpler: ua-cam.com/video/4CGjs-Z7bDE/v-deo.html : A battery, magnet, and 1 paperclip.
it is simpler, but it doesn't have all of the same concepts, and is much, much weaker.
this one has variabilities, such as how the amount of windings on your coil determining your instant torque, and being more power efficient.
Things they stopped making 100 years ago.
1. D cell batteies
2. Pens
Ipad VR games is way better than this
