A windmill with counter-rotating blades. 1 blade holding the magnets, the other holding the coils. I want to string LEDs up the length of the blade or at the tips, just for something to watch. If I ever learn all I want to about electronics, I will make the LEDs along the blade flash at a particular moment, creating the effect of stationary clock hands, sync'ed with the actual time.
