Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

[Omnibus]

@All,

I asked Mylow via pm on youtube on 18 March, 2009 if he can have his brother manufacture the parts and how much he will charge for that and Mylow replied

sorry my brother no longer works in his shop this disk was made 15 years ago when he did work in his shop.i am shure that this thing canbe made in any pro shop.its aluminum just a large aluminum disk.on a bear shaft .

@sterlinga now writes that Mylow has told him the following:

When I was talking to Mylow yesterday, he said that his brother is willing to make more aluminum rotors and bearings.

Is there a discrepancy here or what?

Perhaps there is a market now?
With a man like sterlinga moving things along, 5 days is a long time

@ramset, so I should be the first in line then. Yeah, sure. In several days the guy again became an owner of a shop because @sterlinga convinced him there is a market.

Mylows YouTubes are not getting many hits at the moment and looking at this thread there is only a handfull of die hards still grasping at the thought that this may actually be the one after examing hundreds of designs over the years.

But it will only take one replication that is successfull and watch it take off. You know it will.

FE has never been about making money for me, infact I think I would die if I added up the money I have wasted over the years on materials and tools, but it is fun and is a hobby. There certainly are more expensive hobbies that people have out there.

I just wanna see something SPIN !!!

The only promising thing about this is that Mylow seems a very genuine guy and has put up a lot of detail in his videos.
The icing on the cake will be the Glass table with panned out shots.

This end looks like I might of sourced the Rotor magnets with help of some good friends, but the Aluminium Wheel is going to take longer to get delivered. But I am intrigued to try this pattern out on a 17" Wooden wheel also, which I will knock up this weekend and hopefully the Rotor Magnets will be here.

The Armature magnet I am torn on and still confused to why it degrades when the Weak Alcino's here in my mind should be the victims.
On the back of this I am thinking of getting a relative size Ferrite magnet and with coolant grinding it in half. Then exposing it to strong Neo's to get the Poles where I need them to suit Mylo's

Might have a half cut replication to show when back home this weekend if time allows.

Cheers

Sean.
