    Although I tried making a 4 cylinder electric motor with solenoids like this back in the 70s when I was in junior high school, I only got it to run a few seconds. I wish I'd had a metal lathe, a milling machine & the other tools you used to fabricate all the parts. All I had was metal brackets I could scrounge up along with parts from an 8-Track player & probably some erector set parts. It's been so many years ago, I can't remember what all I used. At the time I wondered & still do wonder how a motor like this would compare to a typical motor when it comes to efficiency & power output. This is an excellent video, Maker B.

    Nice build! Look up hall effect sensors to detect the rotation angle, they're silent, non-contact, non-friction magnetic sensors, that could drive mosfet transistors and in turn the solenoids.

    If one radial slot is cut in the coil formers shown at 3:02, it would eliminate the short circuit during the rise and fall of the current in the coil. As it is the rate of change of magnetic flux will induce a circumferential current in the coil former where there is a rate of change of magnetic flux. Probably one will get a higher rpm if one does cut that slot!
    Very nice engine and craftsmanship with basic engineering.
