Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

Here's a relevant email I just sent to someone -->

I have no idea if mylow machine is legit or fake, but my description will actually work. Now doing it is another task because the friction in ball bearings needs to be low and the degaussing effect needs to be sufficient.

I could see this working with a cheap ceramic PM and cheap hard steel.

If it's what mylow is seeing, who knows, maybe, maybe not, but if it works it's an interesting effect.  Not sure, but if you get bearings with low enough friction then you can achieve mylow's machine with just cheap ceramic/ferrite and hard steel.

OK,
I managed to find the original 1980 magazine article on the net. The reporter could make the stonehenge 40 pound magnet assembly spin with an 8oz magnet.
Lets re-read the article and take a good look at the pictures to see if there are any more valuable clues to this...'cuz we ain't getting any younger!

Good boy Yaz,

This is the exact article I was referring to. Funny how little happened with it for nearly 30 years.

I just ran my concept in FEMM and although I did not perform a detailed step movement using Lua, it did come back positive that the effect will work. There is a net force. Here are the numbers -->

The effect ran in FEMM:

Inftro:
The Alnico PM starts at the left side and approaches the NdFeB.
Positive X-force is toward the right.
N is Newton, a force.

Alnico - full strength - before passing NdFeB:
x-component: 6430.14 N

Alnico - deadened - after passing NdFeB:
X: -562.502 N

This is an exaggerated test since the Alnico is not going to dead after passing the NdFeB, but it will be slightly less magnetized after passing by.

By all means, replicate the mylow machine because I think it will work, but according to FEMM, it's not a "free energy" machine. 

Sterling, please be responsible and not state on the air that mylow is a confirmed legit free energy machine.

BTW, it does not matter which PM slowly degausses, the stator or rotor PM. Same results-- conversion of magnetized PM as it slowly degausses.
