Update 29/01/20: Realised one of the internal cones was slightly off centre; is fixed in DIY_pulsar_2.stl.
3D print and assemble a model of a pulsar. Print in parts: 2x half-spheres with radiation cones, and a central rotation axis. Small holes around magnetic poles to allow insertion of magnetic field lines (scaled to fit in 1.75mm PLA filament, but also works with brim offcuts).
A pulsar is a really small (~10km wide), really dense dead star. They can spin hundreds of times every second
