About this model
An automatic electromagnetic swing — it keeps swinging using the magnetic interaction between a coil and a permanent magnet. When the swing reaches the bottom of the arc it breaks an infrared beam that activates the coil which gives the swing a little kick upward. Construction The construction is fairly straight forward.
