What's a magnet/ gravity motor worth to you?? New way of thought.

Photo needs downsized as all I am getting is network connection is lost.  The verbage is correct.

Thanks for all help in loading the photo. Now everyone can see what I am trying to explain.
I hope someone replicates it while I am on vacation.

I still have some doubts... 

Did you hold the fixed magnet by hand, or was it really fixed ?
If you hold it in your hand, it would be possible that the drums rotate, because you always make some small movements, which will give some energy for it to move.

You wrote that in your construction the fixed magnet is inside the drum, near the center, and it repels the rotor magnets.
In my CAD picture, i placed the magnet on the outside, and it attracts the rotor magnets.
I think both variants are equivalent... what do you think ?

Even if i have some doubts if it really works, i like the idea...

It was hand held.  See no reason fixed will not work.
Attraction is out!!! The only thing that will happen is very quickly the inner magnet wheel will jump towards the external magnet and PIN itself to the internal sides of the drum enclosure without the drum rolling at all.  So NO ATTRACTION to be used.


It has not happened to me but if to much repell is used I guess the same pinning thing might happen on the opposite side of the drum even if that side is very heavy.
