18. Now, the electronics. We need to create a circuit like the one shown in
Figure 10-18. Use the eight diodes and jumper wires to create this circuit on
your breadboard as shown in Figure 10-19. It will tell any electricity generated
in each coil to go to the same place: the power column on the right side of
the breadboard. Make sure all your diodes are facing the right direction, and
don’t forget to jump the ground columns across the board.
