Pyrolytic graphite shielding

[tropes]

you have to make the magnets almost weightless with magnets above to actually levitate....I got some sitting on my desk here cool but very weak ....

@Pyro
The magnets don't have to levitate. The attraction needs to be blocked at the point where they are nearest to each other similar to the coil between the two opposing magnets in the Sotropa Motor-  http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=oHvxB8sFyFo
The attraction would provide 180 degrees of rotation.

Hello,

I tryed bismuth, it won't create the magnetic valve effect we are looking for.
I then tryed Pyro Graphite from AUS at about $20.00 for a 25mmx25mm sq at 6mm thick. I bought 4 squares and I havn't seen any results no matter how I stack'em.

I do notice a slight phanomanon when little pieces of the graphite are slivered off and placed on the neos, but I don't see any reflecting of magnetic lines of force.

If someone has found a diamagnetic material that can be used to shut off the magnetic force, then let me know also.

Hmmm,
Maybe have a look at this new class of composite materials here,
(magnetic film layer over topological insulator)

Just use some bismuth as an accelerated force coupled with some neodymium magnets.  We've all seen the awesome levitation effects that bismuth produces, but somehow the fixation ends there.  Obviously bismuth repels both the north and south poles of any magnet, I can't see how people never thought to use it for propulsion.  I know you can get bismuth powder from smallparts.com, now this would be a perfect catalyst to mix in with magnaview fluid to create a repulsion/attraction effect needed for a rotating electromagnetic highly viscous medium needed for space craft propulsion.  Of course you would still need to power the rotating magnetic field somehow in order to begin pulling the fluid to high enough rpms to excite the aether into molecular repulsion.
