I had drawings posted 12 years before Sprain Motor, from Butch

[Butch]

When Paul called me and asked me to sign a NDA, I had no idea what it was for. Then when I was allowed to see it, I said, I have drawings of that same principle. I even sent him some ideas on how to incorporate my EMF Equilibrium into the design. I wonder, why did Paul contact me and ask me to sign a NDA out of all the people on the lists? I never heard from him after that.  I have put over 1200 ideas on the web for people to work on and build, hoping the ideas would be given to the puplic so we could have "free" energy. It looks like its going to be same O, same O, you can have free energy after a five to ten year pay back period. After that time you need a new unit. Sometimes I just really get frustrated with capitalism. Maybe I should just go ahead and build my design with EMF Equilibrium Iincorporated in it and sell it. Or is that being claimed as not my design also. I hope not, I posted drawings and test videos over 12 years ago when some people were still in grade school. Go into Google and type in, butch lafonte and see what comes up.

12 years is plenty of time to come up with a single simple working prototype, assuming the concept was actually workable.

Just saying.

As far as I can see, the Sprain motor is the Takahashi motor
but with magnets pushing instead of pulling:

And probably, Yasunori T. did not patent it because he may
have reckoned that it was to clsoe to the Minato work.
