Hi all
I found this drawing which looks as if it may work. i would welcome any comments positive or negative. Is it worth trying to replicate?
Regards

I think it could work, but the strength and placement and metal would have to be near perfect. Best thing you could do is try ;) Oh yea..if you get it to work, come back here and tell us :D

When I was on that path, the #1 magnet was more drawn to the metal than the repulsion force of the north pole. Played with it a while and it always kept me thinking "it's almost there, just a little more tweak." Has promise but basically wore me out.

I think in that case, use a more dense or heavy disc to keep more momentum through the gate. Maybe even try using a bigger radius. Who knows, it might not be possible with this setup, and a dead end, and I know what you mean by being worn out. Its fustrating, as I feel there has to be some simple answer and its right in front of us, yet hidden due to a lack of imagination of accepted reality.
