New magnet powered perpetual motion machine

Hmm?

Before anybody spends any money on this request a video at least a couple hours long. This one is not long enough to prove anything.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      To Markdansie: magnets do lose strength over time. As for neodymium they lose one percent every ten years. If you are talking about degaussing when the same poles are facing eachother. Neodymium magnets are the most resistant to degauss.The last five years I have had one hundred neodymium magnets facing the same poles at one eighth of an inch apart and they are at the same strength of my control magnets.                                                                                                                            Most people misscategorize magnet motors as perpetual. perpetual is defined by it has to move for ever. Magnets do not last for ever therefor it can not be perpetual, and if a all magnet motor were to work it would not spin for ever, and that is why the possibility's of a magnet motor does not break any laws under thermodynamics.

The title's: 'Perpetual Motion ?' so the poster makes no claims.

I think it's It's all in fun, more like an 'artistic' effort.

Please post  your  comments.

It would be nice to discuss this device in one place....

Some thoughts:

Thanks for your reply, it is in line with my thinking that should a device (I have seen many fake attempts)one day come along I am sure what you suggest will hold true. My question i have always asked if used in repulsion can any usable work every be achieved? Like can magnets be used as a form of battery.
To date, my search over many years has resulted in finding a single device that was not faked or needed batteries. The extent some people go is amazing and I have seen well qualified engineers fooled.
I agree that we would need to see a long video and on a glass table with preferably clear plastic structural parts. I do like the elegance of it...nice toy.
