Working SMOT ramp from Tom Ferko ?

[hydrocontrol]

Try to get your hands on a 4.5 inch diameter ring magnet and buy enough of them so when they are stacked together the thickness is 3 inches or more.

So the 5 inchers from surplus center are 1.5 inches thick. Only two to make it 3 inches. Will these work ? Should I get 3 or 4 ? What size for the smaller ceramic ring magnets ? I got a lot of rings and squares  Radio Shack magnets from my previous PMM creations.
I am ready and willing to duplicate. Just give me a shopping list and a direction to build..

Missed that. So they have to be neos.. My R.S. ones are ceramic. I got a lot of different neo-rods but no rings.  The large ones from Surplus center are ceramic as well. Will these work for the large ones or do they have to be Neos ?

for the neo smaller ones how about these :

Hi Guys,

I used 4.5 inch diameter ring magnets from surplus center .com.   I stacked 3 of them together to make a magnetic " wheel".  The thick ness is for stability to keep the wheel from tilting over while its in a vertical position .  You are now working with powerfull forces.

You need to stack many small rod magnets, disks, small rings, say 3/4 inch diameter together to make a lenght as long as your ring magnets diameter. Polaritys on the long ends. The more powerfull your rod magnets are the better the results . You will need to stack two such rods.

Guys- This concept and device idea works as I told you and you can have loads of fun with it.   Right now I am making a model car to test the device and concept in.   If it works I will show by movie the results. If it does not work I will present the entire concept to you all and one of you can maybe figure out how it can be used to power a car.   I have done all the testing outside of  a car model and I am stumped as to why it works at all ??   Really powerfull.

You can use ceramics for your rod magnets also.  I used them and found neos were much more powefull.   I had a number of neos on hand so I used them.    Tom

Hi Tom,

Does the wheel (4 1/2" stack ring magnets) need to be on a solid surface to work? (I mean touch the ground) or there is an axle across its center to support it in mid air so that you place the little rod magnets in a certain way to make it turns?
I have an idea on how it could possibly work but I can be wrong to.

Thank you Tom for sharing your invention. Even if it is just little part at the time.  It makes me think a lot   "even all night long"
