Finsrud machine Understood 1931 design

[poplianil]

If you see the one hour video carefully you will understand that the vertical magnets on top bow just as ball comes close. Clear Electromagnets with a switching Phase device. And he never says its perpetual  " Its an Art Sculpture ofcourse "

Anyway this looks like the driving force by design though current times do not need such complex connections

[Omnibus]

A team from Lund University has studied Finsrud's machine with very sensitive equipment for telltale signs of electromagnetic activity. None such was found. If it is not a perpetuum mobile the reason is something different (if we exclude fraud such as mechanical winding of a spring when he initially cleans the track). For instance, Finsrud's machine may be a very efficient redistributor of the initially imparted energy.
