@ BATMAN : it looks great! You even took the time to get it out of the cave for a daylight picture. Awesome 

Do you have a website where we can see the progress of your replication ??
Don't leave us salivating posting one photo at the time!!!

Did you get mount the rods on this same wheel ?

Thanks!

If you would spend a bit less time trying to goad me you would not keep rephrasing what I say/type and making false attributions:

I didn't rephrase it, I quoted it, and it's there for all to see.

I didn't SAY that YOU SPECIFICALLY SAID: "Oh YEAH, well you can't even SPELL"...it is a simile.

I SAID that you have resorted to attacking people that misspell (or in the case of "Archet"..more like mistype).

THAT was an attack?
I'm tellin' ya, politics is sorely missing your acumen.

That's one of the many diffs between you, me and honest discourse

Read it again, as you like to say. Re-phrasing and re-framing arguments is a classic weasel move. I'm well aware of it.

And again, none of this changes the facts or the validity of anything I've said. This one lil' nagging detail ya just cant't seem to work with/deal with.

..and now we're back to "disingenuous liar".

Bud, pick one or the other please.

I'm not sure why you seem to think its your job or duty to "goof" on me, but no matter. Archer's shit still doesn't work like he said it would, he misrepresented himself, his progress, his process and his success...and no matter how much name-calling any of you do...no matter how much you prostrate yourselves before this man, I will still be here until Harti deems otherwise to make sure THIS particular person's claims on THIS particular project in THIS particular thread are examined and critiqued in a proper rational way, with the evidence presented.

It ain't my job, it's my entertainment.

My "job" is to try to contribute, EVEN IF IT'S WRONG, to try and further an idea (actually, it's my entertainment too).

You go to another thread and Praise Archer (I'd find it hard to believe there isn't at least another...but I haven't looked) and you won't find me there.

There you go ordering me around again.

You need my respect for that to happen.

I challenge you to do the same in opposite, and see how long lasting that thread is.

If anyone here makes any broad baseless claims that leak out of here onto the OtherWebs and I come across it, I'll be all in that, too.

....and, if it piques my interest, so shall I in the effort to make all that is "holey", be even more so.

But for now, as long as anyone stumbling into this saga gets a more balanced view of this particular person's claims, counterclaims and foolishness, I am satisfied.

1 more "day", and you shall be vindicated I'm sure.

@ All

If you see my content as infuriating babble that just confuses the issue PLEASE ask harti to ban me.

I offer myself, and any idea I've presented, to your sufferance and decision.

Just like any other poster here does................

@ BATMAN

Sorry bud, I have a weak self-image that needs little debacles like this to shore up my flagging self-esteem.

Quick update from me.

Very busy week at work and trying to hit Project deadlines grrrrrrrr, so not alot of time to analyse all the posts and this project. Did not help that the UK fuel shortages on Monday hindered me as well, as I could not commute up the roads to actually get to work grrrrrrr

Anyways, got to adding weight to the extensions arms this weekend and must admit the more weight on the outside of the rods did break the wall, BUT the added weight then stopped the lifting of the arms, back to the balance issue, that one cancels the other out. Played for a good few hours and did get a balance at one point with one arm after moving the stator magnets out and reducing the weight, but lost it as soon as I started loading the other arm that was 90 degrees apart.

I do like Achers new approach/design because this will stop the bashing on the center bearings and must admit I was shocked at how the pressure soon got to the middle bearing. Ok some people are saying Archer has copped out from his original design, but it is not a matter of copping out in my opinion, it is a matter of R&D like you would while designing any product. You find problems, change the desing and implememnt it as you develop.

On the good side, I have got to give Archer his due respect for the videos he has produced this week on the wheel, it is the ultimate Idiots guide with nothing missing so far and nothing hidden. I know how long it takes to video stuff as you are working and how much it can eat into your build time.

Couple of days left to go now and I personally hope Archer does produce something, but we shall see.

Cheers

Sean.
