SMOT - Close to closing the loop ,second video-BIG improvement

[billmehess]

I have been able to improve the design substantialy. The ball is now approaching the entry point on the uchannel at a much higher elevation than in the first video.
Here is the youtube link- enjoy!

I''m sorry to have to break the news for you....but you are light years away from self looping your SMOT.
The elevation is sky high considering the ball having used all it's energy when aproaching the "staircase".

When I first started the elevation between the ball and the top of the uchannel was 2" at the entry point. I have reduced this to  1/2". The ball speeds up when it moves from the connecting uchannel onto the glass plate. It is picking UP energy and NOT slowing down. Another gain of 1/2"
and the ball will enter the uchannel of the SMOT. There is NO GATE at the SMOT entry point
the ball will in effect be sucked up into the magnet configuration and the roll thru will continue.

all I can say is prove it..... you say its possible, so do it already don't get me wrong here, I would love for you to succeed, but you wont succeed convincing people it will work when you haven't got it to work (close loop that is)
