Oddly enough how you feel about labor unions makes no differnce to me either... Most unions are not nation wide this is where unions have there limits of being benificial ... Unions within sole companies are useless there is a lot of blackmail, payoffs and curruption and this is the truth ... Sure the pipe fitters union is a good union ... And the railroad union is another good union. Nation wide unions are the only unions which have proved there worth.

But I will agree on one thing seeing is how Obama is the only vote worth giving a shot to.

This is where your vote should go. Weather republican or democrat makes no differnce to me either while I was brought up democratically I have no favortisim twords any party.

I more so look at what the people discuss and debate.

Not to mention I do not wish to see a canidate that is going to die while he is in office...

Nor do I wanna see more of the same old bush bull crap...

Nor do I wanna see a manipulative, blackmailing vice president who thinks her chit dont stink in office.

Nor do I wanna see someone in office who has been in government for years and did not realize the state of the econemy.

For christs sakes McSame comes out on stage and says oh yeah the econemy is strong and bamb shit just fell apart after that fortunately I think others may see this as well... No more closet polotics. No more lies. No more citizen backstabbing. No more coverups.

TRUTH TRUTH TRUTH.

And no more coperate control and media brain washing!

well guys,  i've toyed with my wheel on and off for several months now.....   i've gone from breaking the wall, to providing enough lift to move the rods, and back and forth, and vise versa, in both directions.
(clockwise/counter).......

The problem im running into time and time again, in various magnetic arrangements is basically this:

a) magnets are strong enough to lift the rods, repulsion force is too strong the break the wall
b) mass is sufficient to break the wall, mass is too great to lift the rods.
c) a happy medium where the wheel goes through 5/6's of its cycle, breaking the wall, rods lifting, and gets hung up on the last rod....  ( dejavu?)

i've shunted, i've shielded, i've angled, i've adjusted proportions, and distance till i'm blue in the face.
stayed up countless nights making minute adjustments, in/out of the barrier, but to no avail...

i'm not entirely convinced that this wheel can't work, but at this time i do not have the magnets in proper proportions to make my wheel do what its supposed to do..

i haven't heared anything from archer, or any of the other builders along the lines of a working device, so (at least for now) this one is going back on the shelf... 
I gave my best olympic marathon run at it, but my torch has about burnt out... 

I offer my humble handshake to the Quintonians,  - i think Newton won this match....

smokey have you tried to have your repulsion magnets over the wheel so that it extends the magnets to optimal extension?

I know your pain but I have yet to see anyone test this...

This would be one way to get the SMOT to work I believe not 100% but I have a belief that you could get the gravity wheel to work...

Call me stoopid.

@ inf,

im not sure i understand what you mean by "over"... 

i've tried it with the array ranging from 5:45 - 12:15  (6:15 - 11:45) and various arc-lenghts inbetween
at distances from smaller than the wheel diameter to some distance outside of the wheel
with and without extended rods, and an unknown number of tricks/gizmos to assist in the magneto-mechanical coupling between [array + rod].

change the magnetic parameters, it throws off the mass, change the mass it throws off the magnetics
one set-up works "better" with one mass, but another set-up works "better" with a different mass.
but, by "better", i simply mean closer to the objective, since none of them have really "worked" at all...

Here take a look at this photo maybe someone will understand this principal and as usual explain why it will not work...

But either way I suggest a build of this type to prove it does not work.
