Magnetic Continuous rolling wheel

[Nink]

Yet another so called Perceptual motion machine. Who can guess the secret sauce.  I am thinking the magnet stand in his hand has a hall sensor a battery and a coil in it.

I'm amazed at how someone on Facebook can just blatantly plagiarize someone else's video and post it as if it was their own work, without even giving any reference or credit to the originator.

I thought this was going to be Tk's video with the ball bearing going around the track.

I`m sure Tk will post a link to that video for anyone that hasn't seen it yet.

Are you kidding me? It's part of the business model.

The setup does work Don't knock it.I have made one. HERE IS THE PUNCH LINE.  Your fingers HAVE to be on the magnet all the time and by doing that there is some little movement needed to keep the ball spinning on the one side of the wheel  I am sure that some smart person will figure out a spring assisted setup for the magnet where the magnet does not need a human hand in the picture.  That person could become very rich.

Notice the split track the ball is in. The axle connects the two halfs of the split track together as one unit.  Now figure a spring attached to the balls center point through that split track. The weight of the ball still is downwards.  The other end of the spring would be attached to a fixed point in a straight line with the heavy ball but not attached to the setup wheel  Food for thought. Might not even need the magnet then??
