My Invention

[Pirate88179]

Well, Pirate and I have been around for a while and have participated in discussions on several topics. We don't always agree but I respect him and I hope he respects me.

I assure you.... in this matter we have not exchanged any PMs or 'back channel' communications at all. Of course we can't prove this to you easily... but the Patent information isn't a secret, many people know... or should know.... about it.

And on this forum any poster can replace his (or her) own posts with completely different content at any time. As far as I am aware there isn't any time limit on edits, so you can just go back, delete all the content, and replace it with a dot, or something completely different. It has happened before...

TK:

That is correct.  I do hope that you know that even thought we don't always agree, I have the greatest respect for your knowledge and building skills.  The thing that I think that you have brought to these discussions here on OU is that, you put your building skills behind what you say.  If someone does something and claims something...you build it and then ask "what the hell?"  But, you took the time to build it even though you already knew it would not really work.  Anyway...I have a lot of respect for you for that.

  umm,
not sure about you two.
Bill, when you say I know it won't work, you are insulting me.
Thanks to my hearing loss, I've had time to to sit home and study math and how it applies to leveraged motion.
If a person wants to understand something, at some point they need to be willing to take the time to learn.
I guess you could say that I have turned my disability into an ability.

Jim:

I never said your device will not work...I never even implied that at all.  My comment complimenting TK was about all of the other devices he took the time to replicate...from Mylow, Rose, and many others.  Nothing to do with you at all.

Thanks for sharing your ideas, My mind is to small to model all those connections and motions ,I envy your obvious ability to play with these ideas.
   There is a member here [EM Devices] that recently advocated the pendulum as a possible OU source while dropping , perhaps you can have a look here

Thank you

Always good to see TK too.

Thanks, Bill, Chet.

Jim.... I haven't looked at your system in depth at all, I just responded to the patentability issue.

Your system seems simple enough though.... why don't you build it yourself and see how it works, before you get all excited about patenting it?

I am really sorry that I don't have my machine shop tools here, I can only do electronic stuff where I am right now. If I had my lathe and mill and other tooling, I would be much more interested in the mechanical builds I see happening right now. But I'm essentially unable to do anything other than drilling holes, not too precisely either, until I can get my tooling sent down to me.... and that may never happen, at this rate.

Anyhow, I don't think we are hostile... just cautious, and I for one would hate to see you screw yourself out of being able to patent a good original idea just because you talked about it here in a public forum.
