Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

[FunkyJive]

With so little time myself to build one of these things, I would like to ask if someone may be interested in building myself a suitable replication for a "consideration".

What's more, my electronics and scientific knowledge certainly doesn't make up for my lack of fabrication skills required for this device - though would be fun trying  .

That said, I have a considerably simpler electronic counterpart of a motor in-mind (without any stall-points at-all), so perhaps an opportunity for further business if anyone were interested - strictly on the understanding that all findings and positive discoveries will remain public to this excellent forum?


All the best,

@ Sean,

It may not matter, but I believe that with Al's setup, the stator magnets come to the "bottom" of the rotor magnets.  But I think this will make a difference for the latching effect, but if yours are adjustable, and it does not work, that is the first thing I would do, is drop your stators.

Great job as always,

Bruce

Hi Bruce

Think I may have to trawl through the 1000's of threads over at Steorn Forums to find this out.
Looking at the various pictures they all seem to show the Magnets level with the top of the rotor magnets, apart from this earlier rig that was photographed at a better angle to tell.



Looks like they are half way down the rotor magnets maybe?

Cheers

Sean.

Hope this helps - quote from Al in Steorn forum in regards to someone else's rig:

"Just slight differences: the dampers on the real thing are mounted lower. It looks like everything is on the same plane in the model; in the real unit the plane of the rotor magnets skims the top edge of the plane of the stator magnets, and the damper plane skims the lower edge, if that makes sense."

BTW, great work... been intently lurking for quite some time

@ Jason,

Doug Furr asked me to see if I could get some clarification on what the damper things are for and how they mount.

My understanding is that they are to keep the thing from accellerating to destruction.

Any light you could shed on this would be appreciated.

Doug Furr had to go out of state today for an urgent meeting, so he'll probably be a day or two more before he's done with his replication.  I stopped in to see his progress last night.  He was machining the rotor on his CNC machine.  The base is done.  He showed me his bag of hundreds of magnets.

@ CLaNZer,

Would you mind providing me with your email address?  I understand you wish to keep it confidential, and I will honor that request.  Send to sterlingda {at} pureenergysystems.com.

Thanks

Sterling
