@ Hello All
Woke up this morning with a head-ake, feeling yuk.
I feel left out not having wound a NS coil, but am reading the posts trying to understand whats happenning, in some ways that is good as I can look at results from a distance and have an unbiased opinion. You are all interresting people.

I can see the frustration you all have, but keep going......if you need a couple of days to take a break, do so, but dont stop.
Every weekend I try to take a break from home and get away to recharge my batteries  and I feel much better to tackle the next day.

@ Bill, I havent heard from you, did you get my message?
I saw the monopolo video you posted on U tube, very nice, the bolt and magnets must a became a gyro as it did not flick away but just hung there at those huge RPMs. Bill, could you paint a white line on the magnetics to make it more easier to see it spinning up or down? I like your commentary, you explain them well.

Some days back, I read those who had no snow around their in ground connections, I found that fasenating, I said to myself, hmmmm what was happenning here? Obviously there is some force reacting with physical snow, I wonder what?
(I havent ever seen snow) our winter time is approaching and it gets down as much as -5 some nights.

Im getting fustrated with my software,      hence the delay, carnt seem to get 1 section to calculate right and clarion user group is not returning my requests for help, the only person I could go for ideas has left for other pastures, so It's up to me, myself and I. lol

Just had a brain wave, has anyone ever magnitised their iron wire, "before" winding it.

@ jeanna, how are you going with the hollow iron pipe?

hay everyone, this is a very very special group, In the very short time I have been involved with you all, I have seen astounding results from every member of this group, every single person (past & present) is special and a specialist in their very own way, and in their own right.
Some have degrees, some dont, like me. Some are highly educated, some are not, like me.
If someone makes a mistake, or miss reads a figure, and posts it on the forum, then so what, we are all big enough to know a mistake has been made, the way one answers to rectify that matter is called diplomacy.
Being gentle in pointing out a mistake is an art form in itself.
If you think someone is having a difficult day, send them a personal note to cheer them up.
Thats what makes learning so interresting.

PS, after reading my 1st 2 posts, I thought, opps, I made a mistake, because of the length of those posts I thought I was hogging so please accept my apology.

lets keep our eyes focussed on Nathan Stubblfield.

The hollow pipe is the one called #11.
I am getting slightly better readings than I got with the prevoius one/s.  I think it is because the windings are fatter not because it is hollow. There is more inductance (higher henries L ) with a fatter diameter. I assume that is the reason for the slight improvement now.

I made it hollow to see what happens when it is stuck into the ground. But, this one is getting the whole package of 100 ft. of the wire. I am guessing I will be able to wind 9 or 10 layers with this cu wire.

I posted the pic on Pirate's new page. not sure where to continue.

Jeanna the whole point of this invention is a solenoid coil that is self generating with a primary consisting of a bifilar coil arrangement.  How would the steaks and timing mechanism produce the same results? or the embodiment of the invention to be either or the battery or transmitter.

That statement i made is only applicable when using a meter set to amperage reading ,   The way it reads amperage is the current flow through the meter  so by touching that lead on and off i was making and breaking a circuit as well as reading amperage.  If i had done this on voltage it would have been useless as the voltage measurement function does not complete the circuit.

The repetitive making and breaking of the primary induce a magnetic feild inside and outside the primary coil , the speed the field is created and collapses  is what the timing mechanism controls .  These properties are unique to solenoid coils wound in  this fashion / Transformers.  The reason this thing is self generating is because the earth keeps the cloth moist to provied the inital voltage in the primary for the relay to start and thus the ac power in the secondary is created via the expanding and collapsing magnetic field. The field strength is determined by the dc output in the primary.

So no the rods and the rotary gap arent all thats too this device . none of this is speculation just physics and quotes from the patent.  Yet i do agree that something along those lines should be studied further.. hence my inital exp where one rod was placed then walked in a circle to find the hot spot for the second rod testing along the way.. there must be a reason for that so if you have ideas for it feel free to keep them here

@ Jim

Thank you for the kind words and im sure the rest of the folks share that notion. 

@ALL

Did i mention that i have real bad adhd and find myself pacing sometimes when frustrated. 

Sometimes I find I need to write a rare Unkle Jim letter
This one of those occasions.

@ Jeanna


Hi there jeanna, this is unkle Jim here now,  I read you.

I think you have reached the point of, "whats the bother with it all!!!"
Dont' give up mate, it's worth the prize in the end, and that prize is knowing that you were actually involved in the research. Jeanna, we all have a low spot and you are no different to myself or any other person.

In my apprentiship days (about 37 years ago)  I once saw a fellow worker do this.
He had been working on just one truck starter motor all day long, everytime he went to test it, it had a fault, it just would not run.
About 2.00pm, with a loud shout that came from deep down inside himself, he wrenched the starter motor out of a vice with all his strength, lifting it high above his head, and hurlled it right through the luver glass panes in front of himself. c u r a s h, t i n k l e  t i n k l e went the glass.

Of course, what he did was wrong, he agreed to repair the damage, cleaned up the shards, and afterwards over "smoko" we had a good old laugh about it all.
Even the boss saw the funny side of this incident.

So Jeanna, you (and others) may be feeling the blues just now, it will pass.

I for one have been taking a lot of interest in the results you have been getting with your coils, you are consistant, you don't give up, you are like a terrier, once you get hold of something, you don't let go until you get the result.
You present new idears, suggest new ways to try and back up your statements with results.
That is appreciated by all of us.

Without a doubt, everyone on this forum respects your work and the effort you take, so chin up jeanna.

It is mainly because of you that I am writing this program, it is almost ready.
