I need help with a KEELY project

hansvonlieven, I notice that it is not perfect and some tips are broke off as well a couple probes are completely broke off not to mention the one that is bent.

It looks to me like it may be used as some sort of frequency scale that starts at a high note and ends low or vice versa. I am assuming the pegs on the platform it is setting on must rotate and that may explain why the one is bent and a couple are missing.
The other part I see looks like may be some sort of power supply do to the wires coming out of it. Or it could be a transmitter of some sort. I would like to know what is in side of it as well as what the wires are attached to.

No, the rings did not rotate, photographs of the assembled devices show they are stationary, in fact Keely talks about this. There was NO power supply. They are simply two complex resonators which were tuned to each other in order to create what Keely called "a sympathetic link".

hansvonlieven, maybe it was tool used for checking tunes of vibrations.

No, it was essential for the running of the motor according to Keely.

see the assembled motor with both scales in place one on the motor and one on the bottom of the liberator just barely visible.

I didn't see this pictured, well at least not blown up as it is if I did.

What is this motor? It looks like there is a wire or a tube coming from the and or close to the scale going down the liberator. Is this motor supposed to have run on it's own power?

Do you know what the liberator consist of? I also notice some sort of wire or pipe on the opposite side coming from the base, going up to the gear and or close to it. Do you know what that is?

The side with the scale looks to have a crank attached to it, is it a crank? If not, do you know what it is?

The last thing I question is, what are the groups of items on the inside of the center ring? They look like three different sizes and or items that are placed at different points around the ring.

Sorry to ask so many questions but this is interesting.
