Re-Inventing The Wheel-Part1-Clemente_Figuera-THE INFINITE ENERGY MACHINE

[antijon]

Hi all, Jon, new guy here. After doing a lot of reading, I decided to see if I can contribute, so pleasure to meet everyone. Honestly, been reading OU forum posts for the past few years since I discovered RexResearch.

I haven't gone through and read all 90-something pages of the topic, but I'm curious as to why the design has been 3 vertical coils, side by side. Is this what the consensus has determined as an accurate replication? It looks similar to the bi-toroid transformer design, which may give you positive results due to the multiple flux paths (primary coils aiding secondary self-inductance, instead of opposing), but at higher power levels the mutual induction between the coils will make it behave as a simple push-pull transformer, right?

I'm going to try to replicate a design with three coils, end to end, in a linear fashion. Looking at Figueras patents, that seems to be his method of obtaining the necessary phase lag between the first primary, secondary, and second primary.

Props to you guys using a 555. I've always fried them, so I'll be getting my 180 from a center-tapped, rectified transformer. Although, I won't be able to make it self-sustaining without a commutator or inverter (as we can see in the Figueras-Buforn patent that he loops the negative of the coils back to the commutator with a switch to make it self-sustaining.)

This may be a silly question, but has anyone replicated a working device yet?

Spent 12 hours looking into the soft iron situation. There are very few mines still operating that mine iron and even fewer plants to process it. It just isnt used any more like it was a 100+ yrs ago. It rusts away quickly and has little strength on it's own so more exotic materials have replaced it.There are more copper mines then ore mines and those are very toxic compared to ores so it not a pollution problem which has curtailed ore mines. The little bit used today is expensive because of demand being so low it costs more to get it out of the ground on small scale then say coal or copper which is in demand but competitive with more operations or mines in service. Kind of sucks if your thinking that to save the world you need soft iron.
  Even if you find soft iron to be the magic bullet you will find it takes a pretty big order to get it cheap enough to effect the price. The pieces of rod used to calibrate compasses doesnt look like the type of material from a 100 yrs ago. It should rust quickly and leaving it on a store room shelf as inventory it would very much rust and not be nice a silvery looking.
  Soft iron is how ever very good at making a magnet from current.With that said it has not stopped electromagnet production or use because soft iron fell out of favor with industry. they just use more wire or core materials which are available to compensate the number of lines of force required.
  The patent is an abstract drawing to explain a process of operation. The method is the means not the material. Abstract like a f'ed up painting some mentally abused person turns into a story.Its not literal. No offense to any mentally abused art critics in the room.

For some F-ed up reason that last sentence made a lot of sense .
so if it is totally abstract then we have been barking up the wrong tree from the git go.

The stuff I got from Ed Fagan Inc. was expensive compared to steel...but the jury is out on how well it performs. I guess pure Fe comes in pellets.
Will find a source for it eventually.

when I was a kid I used to play along a rail way line that went through a woodded area with freinds. U,S, Steel would get shipments of lose balls of the stuff we used for shot in our slingshots. It looked like lava rock turned into 3/8ths inch balls.It was as hard as ball bearings but not perfect shape. Had I known then. Well any way it used to fall off the train cars a lot. But there is a place to look for some if you live near an old steel mill or you can try to research what rail lines that ran between mills and mines.Most of the old locations have been closed a long time now. Im not sure the stuff would'nt have lasted this long without rusting away.
