Recently I was thinking random thoughts and thought to myself, if there was a windmill like wheel with powerful magnets on each blade, would it spin? Here is a poorly drawn picture to help explain myself:

The N's and S's are representing the different poles. Excuse my poor paintdrawing skills... lol paint is difficult to be precise in :P
Anyway, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't spin(it doesn't seem likely), but can any of you think of a structure that would spin? This sort of stuff interests me. Thanks :D
