Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

[jcims]

Got my 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 cubes today. So marked them up and mounted in Rotor.

Wind down times are probably double now with all that weight at the outside. The rest of us are probably nearly as anxious as you are to get the rest of the magnets get in!!!

Now just waiting for the Stator Magnets.

Looks Great Sean
Gradually coming together. man my order must be being shipped by Camel LOL
Looking forward to see your unit running a couple K
Thanks for sharing

Well you guys dont know me from Adam, but I have been here watching for a looong time... I am extremely interested in this particular project, I have submitted the plans as kindly provided by Jason to my local machine shop friend... I have asked him to supply me a quote for 10 of the units... if there is any interest please let me know... I will post the cost each hopefully by the end of today. I am not sure how expensive it will be but will gladly send them at my cost plus shipping. Thanks

Hello Group
The time has come to seek a specification on the Stator bearings
In my Rep I will be hopefully using a bearing of the following specification.

Basic Spec.
ID - 0.25", OD - 0.5", Thk - .125 or Metric equivalent, *Free spin*
Material - 300(316) series Stainless
Application - Bearing going into a magnetic application, so needs to of the Non magnetic type, Operational speed in the order of 4K rpm
Have RFI 's out to various vendors and hope to here from them soon.
Note: I would prefer to have a flange type, but may have to settle for the standard shell.
Was interested in the bearing choices the other replicators are planning on incorporating because i feel this is an critical aspect of the device operation.
This is the reason for this Inquiry and Posting 

Bill

For the Stator magnets, I believe that Al did not use nonmagnetic bearings. The fact that the bearings are magnetic may play a critical role in the motor's operation. We do not yet completely understand what components are necessary for the effect to work so I would suggest that you use the same type of bearings that Al used just to see the effect, and then replace them with non-magnetic ones later.

God Bless,
Jason O
