I am realizing how poor a web forum like this really is for discussing these kinds of things when the pace gets rolling like this.  Every verbal description that refers to a picture needs to have the picture right there with it or the scrolling gets totally out of hand.  Then people start jumping in and calling names and demanding that their view be agreed upon before anything proceeds.  Posts are entirely missed and left pages behind without ever being understood.  The discussion opens to half a dozen distracting competing tangential viewpoints.  Nine different guys decide their particular aspect is the only thing that totally explains everything.

I can see how the "fuck it, just buid it and see" attitude would develop rapidly!

Suggesdtion...if we really want to nail anything down, let's let Stephan moderate.  Stephan, please have your diagram of reference in each post so we can stay on one page.  Pose4 a qestion...ask for various answers.  Then move on.

Probably much easier said than done...

G'day Stefan,

The error in your calculation is that you are only looking at one moment in time. This is a kinetic system, not a static one and the ratios shift as the wheel turns. sometimes they are in your favour but more often they are to your detriment.

Incidentally hum and zero, don't take it too seriously, after all we are supposed to have a bit of fun while we air our particular views.

Edit now it shows right...

Okay, Hum,
here again with the 2 pics over each other:

Starting point:


From the starting position
when the 2 red balls have gone down to the lower rolling track,
the wheel has  lifted the next yellow ball at 11 o?clock to the
12 o?clock top position, so this ball rolls out ,
so that it becomes the
cambell_harti4.gif  position, where only 1 red ball is at the
left about 4x distance of the axis, but this
still is enough to lift the next yellow ball from the 11 o?clock to the
12 o?clock top position, so this ball rolls out again to the right.

Humbugger, I never swore at anyone.  But to deny a fact is just that.  A denial
of the true potential.

Also, curious if we remove some ball load chambers what will happen:

pass me the specs.. I'll draw it.. well I will if you want me too.. 

assumption is now 4x sized wheel with 15 degrees between ball holders?

if that's the case, I'll draw it..

stephan you can msn me, or icq, or aim, or skype.. just pm me
