Towards Realizing the TPU

This question has been bugging me for a long time now. The ftpu center toroid shows a shadow on its top edge that you can see going around. Why would there be a shadow there? If this toroid core is solid with sleek edges, how can there be this shadow where there is not even any wire? Hmmmm. The only way is for the horizontal edge to be very slightly receded from the top plane. But why? This is not

The other question I have asked many times is that given the total mass of the toroid core, which is pretty substantial when you consider such a core would be suitable for a rather sizable AC transformer having many many windings, how can one expect to cause any type of substantial coupling with so few winds of wire in the TPU toroids?

I can't tell if there is anything there , but that toroid seems to have 2 coil on it , it reminds me of Ed PMH , since it can store a kick in its coils and keep the amps circulating in the toroid , that would explain the thousand kick analogy , and maybe putting magnets on it releases the magnet power keeping the coils full ...

Really think about it before dismissing .

I can't tell if the toroid is encased in plastic .

Having  space between the windings and the core may be important for some reason.

It would also seem that the magnet sticks to this core in that video which suggests a magnetic core.

When he turns it upside down he doesn't seem to be supporting the magnet.

The ftpu magnet is placed on the two metal terminals just in front of the toroid that are to the left and right of the red arrow, so we cannot base the toroid material on the magnets.

I would not be surprised to eventually learn that the real tpu is actually the center toroid and the rings and outer coils are decoys. lol

The center toroid could be a top and bottom disk with a horizontal or other vertical coil inside and the two control coils on the outside to pass off as normal bucking coils. That would fit with the bigger STPU and 6TPU designs that would basically follow the toroid design but in bigger format. Since the ftpu was an open design meaning it was shown out in the open, those outer rings would help distract from the central importance of the ftpu toroid, making it harder to figure out. Just what SM likes. Show.... but make sure they won't know.

Also, regarding that two terminal coil mounting bracket, this is usually used to connect to a simple coil that is mounted on it, but in this case you have two terminals and four wires from the two coils. This would infer that the toroid is not an off the shelf design, but using the mounting in this case again detracts from the custom nature of the toroid, trying again to banalize its importance.

Just some other angles among a sphere of possibilities.
