Well... If you consider Nikola Tesla to be a crack pot.

It's a ring magnet on a shaft with bearings. In the most basic setup I could use a drive coil a transistor and a trigger coil, but I was hoping to use a drive coil timed with a mechanical/infrared sensor. I can draw something up to show you what I'm thinking. All that being said I am a layman...
