Roll on the 20th June

solid state magnets while expensive can be made super heavy duty as well...

Anyhow my point is you must equate weight into design...

As for now we are simply trying to prove we can keep this thing spinning.

We can revise for loads simply by adding more weight to produce more torque for the load !

Or we can take an axial flux path...

Build the wheel to be super huge and in the center make it so that no fields exchange other then the fields required for power
generation at center have the coils mounted on a stationary ciricle supported by its own stand.

This will take place on the back of the wheel...

Revised yes it will have to be revised so that the wheel is unbalanced with the extras be it a pully, gearbox or magnets.

But if we can get it running without a load we could also get it running with a load!!!!

Think think think lets get it running constantly first! Then add and modify that way we can confirm the principal works!

If we do not get to the load part so what archer said he will have that with a generator on the 20th of june its almost june already not too much longer to wait on that....

Design specifics for power generation should be hammered out later.

Lets make us some working toys that display the principal of the consistantly unbalanced wheel!

aye yah!

Yes there is a little too mu7ch discussion at this point on generators, with coild on the wheel at the rear and an adjacent plate with the correct north south north south array of magnets a cuurnet is produced with no friction at all. concentrate on turning the wheel, and then move onto power from speed or weight.

sorry diddnt mean to start a debate on weight

yes i know it matters

when you think of using the wheel for power

but

just for it to work
or to spin

the weight of the wheel
does not matter

hope this clears up my previous statement.

We can revise for loads simply by adding more weight to produce more torque for the load !

This is what I am saying add weight for the load means stronger magnets to move that weight up, stronger magnets mean more magnetic force to break more magnetic force means more weight and were back to the start a catch 22, if perfectly weighted it may spin I don't know having never biult it but at best all it will be is a orderment sitting on your table doing nothing else but spin, no usfull work just something to look at like the art thing with the steel ball roller around a track for ages, it looks good it shows that something can move with out adding outside energy but it does nothing else, it can't do work because once you add a load it stops but it does look cool.

thanks for the input on the axle

I accually picked up the same thing a couple days ago
