Globe cut in half
Obviously we needed a globe with openings at the bottom and the top in order to let the arch for the LEDs to go through at the bottom and the motor at the top

Stepper motor (ref: 28BYJ-48)
This component is a key component as it makes the globe turn to get to the x axis of the country (latitude). This stepper has a decent torque so that it doesn't damage and/or become inaccurate

Driver (ref: ULN2003A)
This allows us to control the motor and make it turn in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions

Wood for the structure
We chose wood as it is a cheap and easy material to get we used in this project 3 planks that make the structure when assembled together

Metallic arch
This goes inside the globe from bellow and holds the LEDs in place inside, this part never moves.

Cables
To plug everything together (else everything electronic components above are pointless). We need 3 cables for the LEDs and 6 for the stepper.
