magnet motor, real ?.you decide.

   I give it two possibilities, 1 its a simulation only or 2 if you look at the inside moving piece,
it has to stop and start. Unless he is a good machineist it will shake and vibrate. I remember
my first bedini, shook all over the place.

This design looks almost identical to the Dave Squires design I first saw on http://jnaudin.free.fr/  several years ago.
Like a conventional piston engine, operation becomes smoother with each added piston stage, and the addition of balancing masses.
I don't know if it works, but if it relies on increase in repulsion as magnets pass, it may have to spin VERY fast (5000-10000 RPM?) in order to function.

Yes it certainly does look identical!

Anyone tried Daves original design?  Did Dave try it?  What kind of results did he get?

From what I can tell, after 10 years, not much has happened, but Dave may have been very busy behind the scenes, so that may not be a fair assessment.  You might be able to ask the man himself, as he just started posting here, on another thread titled: Magnetic OU principle, You should really take a look at this !
