Sjack Abeling Gravity Wheel and the Worlds first Weight Power Plant

Do not bother with Omni.

I know. I've got me a serious case of "somebody is wrong on the internet"

This thread is growing out of proportions...

At this time I´d like to suggest:

1) a separate replication thread with just information of real world builds
2) a separate model thread with just information of virtual builds
3) Keep this thread for general discussion and updates from Abeling (if any)

No objections? Thank you.-

Question posed above: is somebody offering collaboration to Dusty?

Dusty seems to be doing more than fine by himself, but if he'd be open to assistants, I'm sure they'd line up to get their hands dirty in his workshop.
Should by chance his 6-foot wheel not turn as wished, I'll be glad to dedicate some of my hours to coming up with recommendations for adjustments or even replacement ramps and/or wheel plates. Others might want tot run those, or their own, through their vector and torque calculators to obtain optimal figures for Dusty to take advantage of.
But, what's going on with Dusty? Did the MIB snatch his magic wheel before he could complete it? Why is he chasing magnetic toy motor dreams when he's got a nearly completed gravity driven KW generator in his garage? :-)

I think that once Dusty has his frame setup the way he likes, and when the results should be close, but just not there yet, coming up with replacement wheels and such might be relatively low-effort for him and his assistants. And work might be done to further bring down friction. I hope that when Dusty should identify a field where he could use help, he'd get it in an instant. OB seems like a good candidate, as he's so certain there will be success.

@stgpcm,

Both of my diagrams persistantly have the center of offset to the axis of rotation. neither of which will turn. And because neither will turn it is persistant,

No, they don't. It's for you to see why.

No, you don't know. You think you know but you don't. Your "arguments" prove that.
