Wheel vs. lever...

[iacob alex]

Hi Sevich!I am not a handycraft man,I am sorry.My tools are paper and pen,only.More,I am a visiting person for the time being,so the tests are for the future,I hope.About Tesla,I know that he is from Croatia,but it seems that his real native family is not from Croatia(a not checked information ...),but from a neighbour country...I know that you,the former yugo-family,croatians have a historic "game" with serbians(what a pitty!),so I try not to make confusions,and not to touch your sensibility.All the Bests!/Alex

Hello iacob alex,

Yes, it's also a real pitty western powers have played in the past and continue this "historic games" in which weaker nations are subdued and made to do their bidding.

Anyway iacob alex, I really admire your persevirance in your many views to a new way of penduluum thinking.

Hi Sevich! I am from Romania,a neighbour of the former proudly Yugoslavia.Without Tito(a croatian!) ,Serbia remained alone.I know the story.History is bunk:few people make it and the majority lives,feels pain about it.No more comment. Thank you for the enheartening;as you see my "flag" is pendulum for a gravity engine.Some people are imagining a wheel(many spokes).In a way,my concept,a counterweighted pendulum(an unequal lever with two masses at every end of this one) is a "minimal wheel',with two spokes ,only.The problem is that a wheel with two spokes/a lever in fact/ allows a longer time to fall for the driving mass,so to accumulate a greater velocity V=g*t,in this way a greater acceleration and momentum:a mechanical unloud,similar to an electric discharge .That's my opinion.It is the difference of opinion that makes the things to advance,to step forward.Best Regards!/Alex

I live in Australia but was born in the region of Srijem,



My Garage/workshop has been undergoing a major change/renovation for the past three months and is now 95 complete. 

I plan to build and test a whole new design soon. The main internal feature will resemble a banana in the form of a bent pendulum attached with springs and using miniture servo's for tilt speed. Movement of banana pendulum will be very restricted thereby increasing rotational speed once already in rotation (non self start) other mechanical hickups will be addressed and should be a minor issue if all goes well. Looking at late January for first prototype test.

Issuing a success rate of 15 %

goodluck with yours alex

Hi Sevich!Your "banana shape" pendulum is so interesting,from my point of view...because it can be similar to my vision(your comparison,is artful this time...).If you take a look at my web site      www.geocities.com/iacob_alex/Stellarotor.htm    and there you click on New!New Drafts! you can  understand me better.A Happy New Year 2007!/Alex
