Magnetic repulsion converts into attraction

[Low-Q]

Hi,

I have uploaded a short experiment with magnets. These magnets, total of 6 bar neo magnets stacked as three by three. and slightly aligned with an offset to make a "notch" and "peak". I have some ideas about this, but too time consuming to explain at the moment. I will make a brief drawing to show an alternative to my zipper motor idea describes in another thread I have.

Here is the video:

I think the same experiment is described on this page: http://www.autoelektryczne.cba.pl/
Unfortunately it's in polish, when I find some idle time i'll translate it, it's pretty short description. Scroll down to a picture colored blue, red and purple, over it is an enter:"Wpis:   11 - 11 - 2010r.", meaning just this: "Enter:   11 - 11 - 2010." and the title: "Nastêpne nowe odkrycie innego zjawiska fizycznego z magnesami:" meaning: "Another new discovery of a different physical phenomenon with magnets".

This could be of an interrest for the magnet - hungry experimenters: "Design, construction & operating principles of electromagnets for attracting copper, aluminum & other non-ferrous metals" by Leonard R. Crow.

Hi,

Madsatbg and I think a few others have demonstrated the same -
