12 times more output than input, dual mechanical oscillation system !

On the slide6 drawing - what is RHS?

I made such a pendulum and got inconsistant results. I thought he said
in one direction it lifts W1 but not in the other direction.

I always thought that the leverage increases when the pendulum moves
away from the fulcrum and decreases when the pendulum moves toward
the fulcrum and thus W1 goes up and down.

What have others experienced in your tests?

On the slide6 drawing - what is RHS?

Right hand side.

I think Lawrence means that the apparent weight of the RHS bob is increased by the centripetal/centrifugal force which is a function of the tension in the string, the speed of the bob.

RHS = Right Hand Side

I did some more testing and indeed the "yankdown/centrifigal" force that lifts the W1
is greater when going clockwise from right to left than anti clockwise from left to right.
I used a small string to pull the pendulum right or left and then dropped the string letting
it fall and then I had a small coffee stir stick placed so the "seesaw" arm would tap it
and so I knew how far it dropped and at a given position it got tapped when falling from the
right but no where near being tapped when falling from the left.

good point.....
I really like this kind of simple Faraday stuff.

Let us look at reply 2447 again.  When the pendulum swings, the centrifugal force will cause the force pulling the spring to vary.  The weight in the middle will oscillate.  This is oscillation in the vertical direction.
(What happens at resonance?  Two frequencies match?)

If a pulled pendulum can lead-out gravitational energy, what about a pulled spring?

If a pulled spring can lead-out gravitational energy, what about the swinging lever?

In all three cases, we need to consider the potential and kinetic energy exchanges.

If oscillation in either vertical or horizontal direction can lead-out gravitational energy, how about magnetic energy?

In particular, must the energy in lifting the Weight W1 in the Milkovic 2SO be transferred from the swinging pendulum?  Will any Laws in Physics be violated if some or all of that energy comes from gravity?

Morality point:

Things may appear simple on the surface.  But dig deeper.  Apple falling from a tree is simple...
Thanks for all the helpful comments and experiments.  We are all learning...
