Very nice
The levitation disk I saw recently had the mags on the outside of a 12 inch disk ,the air gap was about 1/4 inch and the frame it hovered in had mags all around, Getting to this configuration [hovering disc ,completely hovering upside down, right side up shake it stand on it etc ] is a very big step towards a motor
[so I have been told]

Chet
PS plywood frame a 12 and 1/2 inch hole in the middle a 12inch plastic disk inside that hole hovering and round [small 1/4 to 1/2 inch] neos on disc and frame

Magnetic bearings are a stock item.
Sometimes permanent magnets, sometimes electromagnets.

Edit:

Wikipedia:
QuoteMagnetic bearings support the highest speeds of any kind of bearing; they have no known maximum relative speed.

;D
Nice!
