Two Cogs to move shield and overcome sticky

[gyulasun]

Hi Sean,

If I remember well (it was 3 years ago),  in Wesley Gary's horseshoe setup, the iron piece in front of the two legs of the horseshoe magnet is STILL under attraction, in spite of the fact that it is placed in the so called neutral line! ONLY the iron piece does not show any received magnetism from the horseshoe: this is the unusual fact what Gary noticed.
So the neutral line does not mean the iron piece put there is not attracted but means it remains unmagnetised.  I can check this next Monday when I resume at workplace, though maybe you will have found it by that time.
Sorry if you think this the same way as I wrote above but somehow I read from your previous mail that the iron piece (i.e. shield) placed in the neutral line can be (almost) freely moved, unfortunately this is not really so: this is true in the (narrow) vicinity of the neutral line in front of, above or below of the two legs of the horseshoe magnet.   
And think about when the easiest to get a neutral line: in my understanding it needs both poles of a magnet, the two poles being "guided" in the same plane, the easiest to achive this is to use horseshoe shaped magnets. See also allcanadian's mail in the Adams idea tread on his findings (but he seems to be unaware of the horseshoe shape Gary referred to as giving  the best effect): http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,1738.msg18666.html#msg18666

No problems Gyula , after re-reading what you have written I now understand.

I knocked up me cogs today anywayz, ran out of PlexiGlass so used MDF and they came out good.

Have already been trying other configurations out that I was curious about, and I am not much of a reading man, I like to build and learn that way, so it is all good!

Find a picture below of my effort LOL

Hi Jason

I cut these out of one of my own machines I used to sell at http://www.cncdudez.com
It a small desktop Router with milling area of 240mm * 240mm *80mm



But having a break from making and selling the units for the last 6 months as busy with work and wanted to have some play time!!!

I have a Bigger machine that is nearly completed that will have a milling area of X-Axis 800mm * Y-Axis 800mm * Z-Axis 200MM

Must admit, never thought I would be using it to do this sort of stuff, but sort of fitted in at the right time!!

Regards

Sean.

Hi Sean,

WOW that looks nice! I've been very interested for a long time in getting muself a mill but the problem is they are waay to expensive and heavy for me to put anywhere. How much were you selling those for?

God Bless,
