[sterlinga]

Here's an MPMM-like magnet motor, but even more simple.

On March 30, 2008, Mike x (username: evyllinc) posted a video to YouTube showing a CD with magnets attached on its surface, spinning with just one rotating stator magnet to keep it going. This is an all-magnet motor, with no electrical input. He's presently working on repeating the effect, with some improvements for greater stability.

He will be posting a description of his parts and assembly soon.

yeah there's nothing to see there yet, but here's hoping more of interest is to come

Hmm.... An early April Fool?

Needs to show the device stopped and it running longer, like for 10 mins..

Man-o-man here we go again....Why is it that every time we get a video that claims to rotor on magnets only, the video is always 3 seconds long, shaky, blurry and no real "how to"?

But as always I have hope and will give this guy the benefit of the doubt.....but just once

CD disc has some horizontal plane luff. Should be related to gravity.
