I've got a tiny neodymium magnet and a few AAAs knocking about - now off to find some copper wire (will report back) !

Maybe leave it til the morning AP, you could be up all night if it works.

A mini fan. Cool.

best get a rechargeable battery or that toy could cost lots of cash.

Wonder if it really needs a Neodymium magnet. Don't think I have one.

Tried it, it worked. I used two small neodymium magnets. The tricky bit is bending the wire to the right shape - very fiddly.

That is so cool! :)
