We present a simple and affordable method for making a surface electrodynamic trap for microparticles. The principles of electrodynamic trapping of charged particles are discussed and step-by-step instructions on how to make a surface trap are given. In addition to the electrodynamic trap implementation and operation process, options for its further use are proposed. The work may be of interest to physics teachers as a material for practical work, for the formation of students' skills in performing a physical experiment.
