Magnet motor , tried to replicate a 2nd working proto. Unsuccessful so far :(

Also ... I've been experimenting on my own " halbach magnet array" . I used the same principle as described here

http://www.matchrockets.com/ether/halbach.html

but i made a 3d arrangement of this with 9 magnet cubes.

      o
      V
   o>x<o
       ^ 
       o


-This "+" configuration has the advantage of tripling (concentrating) the magnet flux 3x more at the center.

-Another funny unexplained phenomenon I noticed is that I actually have 2 North poles facing both sides at the center!???

Another remark, , the flux is not cancelled on one side as the simple halbach array descibes ...(never got this to work anways) lol.



Legend:
  o = magnetic flux North pole coming out of magnet (North pole on Top)
  x = magnetic flux South pole going tru the magnet (North pole at Bottom)
  ^ =  magnetic flux North pole place at  0 degree of the magnet
  > =  magnetic flux North pole place at  90 degree of the magnet
  V=  magnetic flux North pole place at  180 degree of the magnet
  < =  magnetic flux North pole place at  270 degree of the magnet

In the pic, you see a 30cm ruler with "crazy glued cubic magnets" on it.

I can appreciate your frustration, as I've put together many failed magnet configurations with no luck.  I'm am still trying and will continue to try and make it work.  It does almost seem impossible, but remember, its only impossible till someone does it.  Thinking about the reward helps as well, no not money, but seeing it spin on its own forever..  Its possible!  Its possible!  Maybe give us some 2d drawings, if you need some help creating a drawing I could possibly help, but as far as telling you whats wrong and why doesn't it work, I dont know.  If people knew, we would have a working setup by now.

   Howard Johnson said that for it to work, an imbalance must be created and then nature would try to correct it.
That is what will make it work. Keep on going for it. You had one, so you found the key. Just reaffirm it now.

Thanks guys, having people beleive in me is really encouraging me to open source everything I find. I'm really lacking sleep since my sucess, I'm just going crazy over this ... when you know it works ... my hearth is just over exited and pumping heat and I can think straigth anymore. I will have to leave this for a day or two and come back again when I calm down.

My mail goal is to cut down on those 500$ hydro bills for 2 months usage I've been paying last winters. My expenses and income are not balanced at all (so is the motor! ) .. tend to go in negative. So I'm extremely motivated to get everthing working again ASAP.

I know there is are several magnetic simulator out there. I've been trying to get a hold on one of them, what is the best one I can use? Is there any demos or free ones? What is the simplest one I can use?.

I'm also wondering ... with all the computing power we have our hands (CORE DUAL 3GHZ+), the simulator can do the working labor for us!

I need a magnet simulator that can figure out the correct magnet cube positionning from my initial trial setup and moving the magnets according to a specific mathematic formula pattern until I get the rotation field effect.

The only way I can prove this to you guys is by running a computer simulation so  that I can base my magnet assembly according to it. Also it will help me understand the basic principles for easy replication with the tolerance limits and variables of its construction.

Let our computers do the labor work. If one can decrypt a complete human DNA sequences in a couple of days, i'm sure there exists a simple program that someone can do to find the answer. If not, i'll propably do one myself in VB or Excel.

great effort keep up the good work......if you get it running again film it as it will give you valuable insights frame by frame of what is happenning
