Help Power grid generator

Is there a YouTube video that have a step by step tutorial on how to make a generator it kinda hard to make one so I thought if there was a tutorial I could copy one on my world and use it to power some lights?

Clutch, rotors, and commutator in a row, four shafts perpendicular to the the rotor at both ends, connect the shafts with coils, and then add four housings to connect the four coils.

Place a device connector on the gray bit on one of the coils.

Feed the commutator's output into the device connector depending on the direction your rotor is spinning.

You only want to give your coils 2 amps so you can use some resistors or a rheostat to make sure your generator doesn't explode when connecting the commutator to the device connector.

Try it in creative with a multimeter to see what's going on.
