Can I make my own electric motor?

Introduction

This electric motor is made in reference and inspired by Roobert33's "How to make an electric motor homemade" YouTube video.

This was made for a physics coursework. Although the video has already briefly explained how it works and made, here's my take. Or rather an improved version.

Suggestions

Revising on how a DC motor works and Flemming's left hand rule for motors may help.
