No future posting due to lack of 3D resourse, LaFonte Group

People can not visualize the designs due to lack of 3D animations or drawings. We have no resource for that. I have no software or skills to do either. I don't need to be wasting the time of the people on the list with drawings they can visualize.

Hi Butch . You seem to have taken my comments the wrong way . My criticism was intended To be constructive and helpful , not negative .We live in an age of information technology . Problem is that at times there is just too much information to sift through . So we tend to choose the easily absorbed and digested information . 2D diagrams are far better than no diagrams . Or even scans of pencil drawings might help . Dont set too much store on what I say anyway . Good luck with your research , Regards , Ken .

Ken,
I get comments everytime I post from people not being able to understand the design due to the 2D drawings.
Something that really disappoints me is we have spent many thousands of dollars and 10 years of hard work and time, countless machine shop hours and drawings by the thousands posted over the years. Then gave it all to the list freely, but no one can return the favor by offering to do a 3D animation for us from time to time. We have learned our lesson, it's all take and no give in this bussiness for the most part.

The best inventors and writers are the worst publishers. This is not an insult, but fact of life.
And it's for the better sometimes that not all talents can come together in one person. He or she would be much too powerful for the safety of mankind. Now we a re forced to cooperate to achieve results. A democratic principle I suppose.

Those who can help you advance the technology you have found, can take it to the next level, may not be able to work from your publications. A middle man may be necessary. Or, since you are so proficient with your hands, a simple demonstration on video.

Until you have a fast spinning self-powered magnet motor, your challenge is to find a setup that you can get across to others. Someone less of a visionair, and stronger communicationally, to bridge with those able to take on the next step, or help you to do so.

I am here to help (whi isn't?), yet limited by talents I was granted. I actually have been assessed as gifted in spacial math (never persued it), but am unable to read your fine drawings. Or, my proof of OU threshold is higher than yours. And that's fine, I'm challenged, you're challenged.
By lack of deeper understanding, I am left wondering whether your setup may stem from misunderstanding leverage, work, force, and how they tie in together to come back to 100% efficiency as they usually do.

I greatly admire your work, but unfortunately am at this stage not able to grasp pretty much any of your intriguing approaches.

Google ScetchUp is for free, and relatively easy to learn. Make every component separately, group them, and put all components together. Rotate separate components as you whish to visualize the principle of operation. No big deal - it is just consuming time the first month or two...

EDIT: And your designs pops up faster than anyone are able to absorb. Couldn't you just stick to one design at the time, build it to proove/disproov the concept - then go on to the next idea?
