First LarryC, do I understand that you had success when you used a grinder motor?

Hi aether22,

Glad to see you're back.

Well, first I wound a 205 ohm coil, and sent you a post #1712 about the issues.

Then tried and failed to accelerate a ceiling fan motor.

Then I had some success with my current bench grinder. See #1900, #1921, and #1929.

I'm interested in your winding problems. Didn't mention in my original post, but it took about 4.5 hours, 1 hour to set up and 3.5 hours to wind. Also, I had to tape the core to the end holders to keep the core from falling out of the slot.

Good Luck,
Larry

Thanks, I'll check out those posts.

My problem with winding is that I am trying to do a very neat coil, almost perfect though the ends becomes a bit messed up. (actually I unwound the first 4 or so layers which just unwinding took about 2 hours, about as long as it took to wind them all because the first layer wasn't vry neat and it was making all the subsequent layers messy.

Thing is it's a very large coil to do almost perfectly.

Had 2 breaks now, both times I have unwound the rest of that layer until I get to an end and then start a new coil, later I can join the ends and even add the extra wire over the top.

Aether!

Yes, some of us have been concerned by your prolonged absence ....           

However, I find your remarks -- on "reappearing" -- somewhat puzzling.

I have always been struck by how even those at one of the true "outer boundaries" of human knowledge -- as in, ultimately believing in even the possibility of "an unlimited source of free energy" -- seem to, in fact, have other boundary issues ... such as, not being able to seriously consider the political (and legal) possibility that NASA "may NOT have been telling us the whole truth all these years, regarding what is really on the Moon" ....

Or, to also seriously consider that 19th Century British biologist, J.B.S. Haldane, could have been absolutely right when he stated decades ago--

"It is my supposition that the Universe is not only queerer than we imagine ... is queerer than we CAN imagine ...."

http://www.csmngt.com/quote_11.htm

In that kind of Universe, is it REALLY any "queerer" to imagine an "unlimited source of free energy," blatantly violating the current (narrowly-defined) Second Law of Thermodynamics (because it ultimately comes from outside the currently defined "Universe" -- i.e. another "dimension?") ... than to consider equally robust, officially acquired (but politically suppressed) evidence from NASA ... that Humankind is NOT alone in that same Universe?

But, I digress ....       

So you actually got to spend some quality time with Bruce, eh?  That's pretty cool.

I found a bunch of DePalma's older "experimental papers" the other day, that he had sent me "for safekeeping" from New Zealand shortly after he arrived.  They brought back all of the feelings I have had of late, regarding what we are now missing in these crucial fields, the fact that, in Humanity's "11th hour" -- when we REALLY need giants such as these ... DePalma, Laithwaite ... others -- they're now, sadly, gone.

Glad you're back.

Okay, check out my first post as to how to solve the end mess problem. It has a picture of the coil. It is not perfect, but it look pretty good. I didn't try to keep each layer perfectly level, just tried to fill in the small dips as I went along. Also, keep in mind how Thane's manually wound coils looked, it is probably overkill to be perfect. Don't understand the break problem. Are you pulling the wire off the same way as in my post? It never had a twist or tangle using that method.

Thanks,

Hi All,

Between the writing of Aspden, Laithwaite and DePalma, it would take a good year to read and understand the mountain of information (especially Aspden). The main researchers (Thane and Luc) are get er done type of guys and would never have time to sift thru that mountain for pertaining information. Would any you who are more studied on these individual, like to volunteer a summary document of important information, pertaining to Thane's research? It could be coordinated, if each volunteer stated the document that they have time to create. You don't need all or perfect knowledge, just enough to contribute to the process.

Thanks,
Larry
