Magnet Motor from Argentina, part2

hey kukulcangod!

can you post a video of your device?
so what if its not working yet. we can still learn from it.

did you shape your magnets or not?

I'm going to try with 3/4 inch cube neos (twelve of them). dont think I will be able to shape them.

best of luck.

if you use a wet tile saw you can cut them.

Hey Gn0stik! a wet tile saw? not sure what you mean.
Do you mean electrical tile saw?

thanks

Here is a wet tile saw, it should make nice cuts in ceramic magnets (in theory):http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=3733

Yep that's it. You want to use a wet saw because you don't want to overheat your neos.. It wrecks them. The water keeps them cool while cutting.

I did a lot of tests with my Torbay device. I still move magnets by hand. Pushing a stator magnet up, is not using energy from the device.  Pushing it back, however, cost energy. By making the magnets more heavy, it can made easier to pull them back in line.

But I thought about something else as well. Torby let the rotor magnets just pop up. This means that the kinetic energy that is released at that time, is lost (converted to noise). The 'head'-unit of the device coud easily have a slanted startpoint as well. That mean that the magnet that pops up helps the 'head'-unit around and is a counterweight for the magnet that has to go down.
This is not only more effective, it makes that device less noisy as well.
