You would need diamagnetic material like bismuth or pyrolytic graphite sheets which are highly diamagnetic.

Found a link on bismuth: http://home.earthlink.net/~lenyr/levmag.htm and it seems to be formed easily at home to a flat sheet format too due to its low melting temperature point.

Also a good info on diamagnetic materials is here:

The "latest" strongly diamagnetic material is pyrolytic graphite and it is available just in the correct shape for your arm:

Now your idea can be tested! Go ahead!

Didn't read all the posts. Anyway, like Gyula says, diamagnetic material is probably needed to minimize insertion/exsertions forces.

There is no such thing as a shielding material that is NOT ferromagnetic.

I wasn't sure about this gn0stick. If this is true then this engine is a waste of time

Hi
I have some idea how to cancel force of removing barrier from this system.
If we will make disc from still with let say 16 wholes and 15 motor systems with synchronization we will accomplish cancellation of barrier removing forces. Don?t you think?
Sorry for my English

ding ding ding ding ding... you win the thread.

The repelling force between the two magnets will always be smaller than the attraction force between the magnets and the steel. The reason for this is because the steel is always closer to the magnets than the magnets are to each other.

Sure, but don?t forget your sliding the steel sidewise away (in 90 degrees to the magnetic "forcelines").
When you have to magnets stucked together, what are you going to do to separte them. Would yo try to separate them by pulling agains the direccion of the magnetic force or would you try to simply slide them away from each other.
I think you would them slide away from each other. But why you should do this, even when the force is the same.
Try it out and you will see that it?s not the same.

I think that this design is better than Torbay?s design. Torbay?s Motor seems to me like a donkey-truck pulled by a carot.
