So the motor I ordered has a small arm that spins very fast. It also vibrates when it spins. I thought the motor I ordered was a bit bigger so that's a bit of a pity. But now I'm thinking of making an insect that draws. I used a strip of thermoplastics connectors as the body of the insect. On that strip I added the legs with some pencils on it. I connected a battery holder on the motor and then the insect is ready to draw with. Because the motor vibrates the insect can walk.
