Working Attraction Magnet Motor on Youtube!?

[Omnibus]

@All,

As I said, the unevenness of the magnetic induction from magnet to magnet (although their shapes are the same) is the main problem. This was my conclusion also in connection with Torbay motor. Before solving it the construction must be made more symmetric. I wonder if anybody knows a machinist who would lathe it and how much it would cost. I?m thinking of a plastic cylinder with vertical grooves in which to place the screws or magnets and then fix them in place by pegs of different length and an external cylindrical sleeve. In this way one would be able to test various configurations. Then, each individual magnet should be tested with a gauss meter to know its exact induction which will help in choosing matching magnets (imagine if there were eye glasses that would allow you to see the induction in colors the way we see it in computer simulations). In other words, serious research must be carried out not different from what is done in labs at Universities.

you have got to give up on this one. cant you see this was a hoax.  build it and see.  it will never work.  it is sort of funny i guess when you think about all the time spent by all the guys here trying to replicate something like this.  i even tried it,  verry precisely i might add.  i would concentrate on other things if i were you.

Look Folks....

The only thing that is going to work is a Howard Johnson type magnetic setups.

Everyone should be going down this road and replicating the "linear" magnetic tracks to learn from them and then on to spinning rotors etc.

Don't waste your time with this other junk!

That's my .02 worth.

Can you show a video of your very precise replication?

Stop wasting your time on this one; it has already been admitted to be a hoax, so why cotinue this ?

@Dansway: so where are these working johnson style motors then? I have looked into that avenue myself and have not found any working replications yet...
Sure, there are some that claim to have built a replication, but they can never provide proof...
Like I said, there are many variations on the theme, Johnsons being one. Where are the working versions?

At least some things do work... This one for example, is not actually a pm motor but it does produce ou output:

And this is another very interesting device; again no pm motor but apparently it does produce output with no input:
