This Bill of materials is designed to take into account your particular project goals. "Materials" herein is referred to in a broad sense, including not only the material parts which make up the device, but also the "materials" of the project as a whole activity, including safety gear, hand tools, power tools, furniture, measuring devices, and recording devices.
Parts
All S.H.O. Drives will share certain things in common.
- Every S.H.O. Drive will contain one or more conductive windings, and each will look like an S, an H, or an O depending on how viewed and may be referred to as a S.H.O. Coil.
- Every S.H.O. Drive will contain one or more permanent magnets located inside the S.H.O. Coil(s) which will rotate mechanically.
- Every S.H.O. Drive will contain a support structure to carry the winding(s) and permanent magnet(s).
S.H.O. Drives will differ in their implementation. For each S.H.O. Drive, the parts must have some level of compatibility with each other. Design specifics may vary widely, and the overall size of each S.H.O. Drive is probably the most important of them.
S.H.O. Drive Mark I
S.H.O. Drive Mark I refers to the world's first S.H.O. Drive.
† Some parts are not strictly required for making the world's first S.H.O. drive but were included for additional structural reinforcement or for convenience reasons.
‡ In order to demonstrate more convincingly that there are no hidden wires, batteries, and so forth, extra steps have been taken in preparation for making and presenting the world's first S.H.O. Drive.
General Parts
- † Brass Screws

Making needs
Design tools
In order to design your own S.H.O. Drive, you will need some tools to assist in the design process.
- Curved Ruler
- Visualis Electromagnetism
Safety gear
Safety gear is an absolute must in any S.H.O. Project. See to it that you have this covered.
- Dust and Particle Mask
- Fire Extinguisher
- First Aid Kit
- Safety Goggles
- Work Gloves
Work space
Depending on your resources, you may have a dedicated working space already in place, such as many have in their own private tool shed or garage. Others are not necessarily as fortunate.
- Portable Work Bench
- Cabinets
- Plywood Surface
Hand tools
Hand tools are essential for any S.H.O. Drive maker.
- Adjustable Wrench
- C-Clamps
- Circle Template
- Crimper Tool
- Laminate Scorer
- Mailing Tube
- Metal Spring Clamps
- Nylon Fasteners
- Sandpaper
- Sandpaper
- Screw Driver Set
- Tubing Bender
- X-Acto Knife
Power tools and accessories
It is very convenient to use power tools, although more care is needed in their operation.
- Compact Power Drill
- Dremel Accessory Set
- Drill Bits
- Power Drill
- Sanding Bands & Drum
Sharing needs
Measuring devices and accessories
Although not strictly required to physically make a S.H.O. drive, it is very helpful to have in hand devices such as digital multimeters and thermometers, Recording data from your results is highly recommended, as it is the essential "fruit" of each project which will raise legitimacy of one' efforts.
- Analog Thermometers
- Anemometer
- LC meter
- Magnetic Pole Detector
- Metal Detector
- Milli-ohm Meter
- Non-Rechargeable Batteries
- Rechargeable Batteries
- Tachometer
- True-RMS Multimeter
Some S.H.O. Drives may require higher amp-capacity connecting leads than ones included with the device(s), so those should be bought as needed.
- Alligator Clip Leads
You may also want to have a supply of backup fuses.
- 20 Amp Fuses
- 200 Milliamp Fuses
Recording devices and gear
You may or may not be one of those people wanting to share their S.H.O. Drive replication to the world. For those that do, it is helpful to have a picture or video recording device.
- Camcorder (or camera with video recording feature)
You will need extra data storage if you wish to shoot long videos.
- Memory Card
Additional accessories may be purchased to provide for a better camera angle.
- Tripod
- Wide Angle Lens Kit
- Adjustable Clamp Mount
If you wish to take long videos outdoor in a place where there is no outlet, you may want to hook up the camera.
- Battery Enclosure
- 12V Battery
- 12V DC Battery Cables
- DC-to-AC Inverter
- AC-to-DC Adapter (may be included with the camcorder)
Teaching needs
As more people make S.H.O. Drives, the need to teach the principles of the S.H.O. Drive will continue to grow. Whether addressing to an audience on the web or in person, presentations may be taken more seriously if appropriate visual aids are employed.
Props
Props serve as useful visual aids that can help you if need to explain something visual. Practice rehearsing with them before recording.
- Slap-wrap bracelets
- Arrow stickers
- Paper mache letters
- Chenille Straws (a.k.a. Pipe Cleaners)
- Embroidery loops
- Newton's Cradle
- Magnetic field viewer
Writing and drawing
If you need to draw a fact, figure, or equation, you will need something to draw with and write on. A good choice would be write on an erasable wall-mounted surface.
- Dry erase board
- Dry erase markers
- Wet erase markers
Multimedia tools
- Video editing software
- Image editing software
Site map
