Magnet-Motor-3

The diagram below,  includes a  top-view, in order to show the arrangement of the stator-magnets of Magnet-Motor-3  .

(  The stator-magnets are arranged in a particular pattern, so that at any one time, the merge-points in one row, will be offset by the lack of merge-points in the other 2 rows.  The same pattern,  that was used in my motor-magnet-2  )
------------------------------

  Regarding   All-Permanent-Magnet-Full-Levitation,  and,  Solid-State-Free-Energy-Generators

  If  Solid-State-Free-Energy-Generators don't  function successfully( don't achieve overunity ),  maybe they should include  an  All-Permanent-Magnet-Full-Levitation  component,  to provide the initial oscillation that is amplified in the coils etc.
     The     All-Permanent-Magnet-Full-Levitation  component  that should be chosen,  should be as unstable as possible( even though the levitating magnet never touches any other object ),   but the more stable  All-Permanent-Magnet-Full-Levitation  designs may vibrate at a higher frequency .

    Or, to increase the frequency obtained from  All-Permanent-Magnet-Full-Levitation  even further,  any of my  All-Permanent-Magnet-Full-Levitation designs  above,  could  easily be modified,  so that the levitating  permanent-magnet,   is pressed in between,  2 devices that make it levitate away from each other.

So now I am faced with the problem how do I make the levitating permanent magnet in bismuth spin without touching it.  If you throw a voltage across the magnet it will spin Homopolar motor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=De6VdKA3IH4 but how do I induce a spin without actually touching it and need to be able to do this from inside a vacuum, so I need to generate the current in the vacuum (Solar, crystal battery etc) or outside and use induction.

To cause rotation in a vacuum

A difficult way.  This version  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nichols_radiometer  of a  radiometer,   works in much higher vacuums  than used by other radiometers,  because it functions via a different method.   I think it works directly of the effect of photons striking a surface,   but since it does not contain a  Fully-Levitating  component,  it does not rotate. 
But you could use the principle by which it works.
 
Maybe you could use pulses from a strong electromagnet, or just by rapidly moving a strong permanent-magnet near it.

Or, use an  electrostatic-charge,  attach some very-very-thin plastic or fibers to the levitating magnet,  and use something with a  strong  electrostatic-charge to move it.
(  an electrostatic-charge can work through plastic or glass containers, which are filled with things affected by an  electrostatic-charge,  like thin fibers,  although I'm not sure if it works through both plastic and glass  )

There would probably be lots of other ways .

(  It's strange that your laser idea won't work in a vacuum, although that is the same reason a  non Nichols-radiometer,  won't spin in a high enough vacuum.
    But,  lasers  emit  electro-magnetic  radiation,  and you are pointing your laser at a magnet, so you'd think it might be able to make it spin  )

I think the reason you want to do this, is to see how long it would spin for ,  but it would be affected by all sorts of things.  There are constant micro-tremors from the earth,  and various other things .

Thanks I think the electrostatic propulsion idea is interesting.  I tried a coil and 9v around the Bismuth with no effect.  Laser doesn't work through the glass jar I am using for my vacuum chamber. If I take a magnet and drag it beside the jar it rotates but I can't get it to spin...  Maybe try a plastic solenoid and try and flick magnet corner.  I do think it should spin longer in a vacuum but I am not sure how much.  The magnetic poles I guess could be adding drag, I am  not sure if the diamagnets are stopping the spin as well.   I guess I could try and shield from the poles with MU metal or something around the jar.

Below is  magnet-motor-3.2 ,   and  magnet-motor-3.4 .

So with these two updated designs,  there is no longer a need for the slightly difficult pattern of  stator-magnets arrangement,  because now there are three  moving-magnets  attached together,  to form one moving-component.   
   The intended effect of attaching together 2 or 3   moving-magnets is so that  merge-points encountered by one moving-magnet  will be offset by the lack of merge-points encountered by the other  moving-magnets .
