Wonderful!!

Just some place to start ,That will be great whenever you can!!

Thank you

Hi Tom,

Great to hear from you. Sometimes it's good to step away from a project and look at it from a distance for some inspiration. I'm mostly away from the computer but if you need anything let me know.

Hi, Grandpa Chet, 

Congratulations on your new family member.

Hi All,

Just stumbled across this patent application, somewhat related to topic at hand:

Patent Application 20090152970: POWER GENERATOR USING PERMANENT MAGNET
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2009/0152970.html

I don't see how it generates power though.

THX! [the grandpa  ]
I can't get images on that PDF?
Interesting read though!

@All
Tom left the ball in our court ,plenty of info shared on his initial idea!
PLENTY shared on his Sphere device!

Does anyone here have a rendering of Tom's Lasy Susan device?
Has anyone here seen that vid and can "paint" something up that we can Study?

Spheres were not a part of his design ...........That changed,  HOW?

I Am Absolutely Certain, 100% convinced if we collectively look at this
the talent and manpower is here to figure this out!

ONE HUNDRED PERCENT!!

Fellahs,the worlds a changin right now,lets try and steer a little!!


Chet
PS
Perhaps when Tom sees how serious we are [and how Good ] he will come join us again!

This device starts out like a racehorse and to tell the truth I have not found a practical way to vary the speed .  To slow it down or stop it I have to place a very large ring magnet near it without the setup or ring magnet colliding with each other.

Part of the spinning platform is heavy so it does not run away with blinding speed.

You see Tom, the above  statement makes the quest irresistable!

AND THIS >>>>No electronics ,just magnets,<<<<<<<

HOLY COW
Tom Sphere Quotes:
Quotes:

1].Sphere magnets.  Ring magnets were to heavy and I found I did not need gravity at all.


2].Two magnets repelling each other while turning clockwise in my case.

3]. Both engine magnet and runner sphere magnets repelling each other on the same platform BUT moving together as one unit continuously  Thats where I am at now
 
4].You have two magnets repelling each other. The lead magnet (runner)
moves forward, the second magnet or engine magnet moves backward according to Newtons third law.
They seperate a distance then nothing happens.

5].The engine magnet CAN NOT move backward now:
THe runner magnet will still move forwad and leave the stationary engine magnet behind it  untill it reaches a distance then it stops.

6].I have made major improvements since then but the original concept is there.  Only two sphere magnets and another  inexpensive component is needed to run the device as well as simple non ferrous materials found in Lowes, Home Depot, or Mcmaster-Carr.

Hi Chet,

Here is another link for the patent above.

This device starts out like a racehorse and to tell the truth I have not found a practical way to vary the speed .  To slow it down or stop it I have to place a very large ring magnet near it without the setup or ring magnet colliding with each other.

That is what initially piqued my interest. A magnet motor should take off like a racehorse. It should also want to run itself to destruction, trying to constantly find equilibrium.

I've been scratching my head trying to figure out how to make two static repelling sphere magnets have a single directed vector.

-Compound lever/linkage
-One way bearings
-Ratchet/pulley
-A round plastic tilting ramp.
-A sliding ramp.
-?

Something has to be keeping them just a little out of equilibrium as they repel each other, otherwise nothing moves.
