Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

[Doug1]

"I am still appalled at the lack of recognition given these folks here that solved this Mylow motor deal.  This is a true testament of what can be done working together using open source software
and some very good minds.  I would have thought that Sterling could have at least given the Overunity forum the credit it deserves for that.  He could have said while he didn't like some of the things said about mylow here, that it was the hard work and great expertise of these guys over here that broke this story wide open.  Yet, he has yet to do so.

Thanks again for your civil response.

  Thank you to the video professors who spent the time to pick over the mylow vids frame by frame. While the prospect of being spoon fed some novel method to make a PMM was appealing to my lazy side it is also equally appealing to know it has yet to be done after the fraud was revealed. 1 million ways how it wont work is 1 million closer to what might by elimination. It only takes one right way the number of wrong ways does not make any difference to me if it is 100 or 100 million.

I'm not aware of a peer reviewed analysis. @ The experiment, it seems that you might need a very precise instrument to measure the height difference?

Unlike others we won't mention, I do know how to use a micrometer, and other measuring instruments. I have an optical position sensor package (Keyence) that is accurate to under 10 microns, if I can figure out how to stuff it in there.
I'm not saying the measurement isn't technically difficult, just that I can (if necessary) do it with sufficient accuracy.
Oh, I just realized I don't need to stuff it in. I can just measure the magnets, and then have the Keyence looking at the top of the top magnet.

The magnet does not tumble at a 90 degree angle, ie: gravity is not a factor. Watch the entire video.

And in  repeated tests with a thin disk magnet, right at the critical angle, it looks like the Leading (bottom) edge lifts up and the magnet actually starts to tumble backwards. It's not the top edge falling forward, it's the bottom edge falling backwards (up) at least at the moment of departure.
I think.

Thinking it over, I still cannot figure why one pole would behave differently to the other, but for the sake of argument lets just make that accepted.
Now why I think the one pole flies off.

If we start the magnet sliding down we know that Lenz law comes into play, the magnet causes the metal to create an opposing field, but it's an attractive field to the other pole, so it's likely that the magnet is being pulled head over heels but now you have the opposite pole creating an opposing magnetic field in the metal, no time to flip and slide down further, it is already tumbling.

READ MY OTHER COMENTS TO GET THE WHOLE PICTURE. Because the one pole is stronger than the other it creates more eddy and makes a cussion below the mag  which will keep the STRONGER side on the steep slant. When the weak side is down lets say the south so the north is the strong side. So when the south is down it will make eddy but not enough to keep the cussion and the stronger pole which is the opposite pole that is made on the aluminum or copper will be attracted to the aluminum or copper and will flip which will make it tumble. THERE IS NO ATTRACTION IN COPPER.
