How Many People Saw The Inside Of Bessler's Wheel?

[Nobody]

Dear Jim_Mich,

I'm very sorry but due to a lack of time I cannot translate the complete text from AP page 29 and 30 you have posted
yesterday into English, at least for the moment.

Beside I want to say that for a beginner I still have to learn a lot about Bessler and his machine but do have the small
advantage, that many documents are written in native language. Being a Kraut is sometimes not easy but in this particular
case it helps a lot;-).

I appreciate and like many of your comments in this forum, but it is sometimes hard to understand how you interpret
and translate those original words in your late comments.

From what I have learned so far only Karl saw the working wheel mechanism. As MrVibrating wrote Bessler is responding
to a suggestion that his axle is in two halves, connected only by a pin, and retorting that his axle is different, it has
compartments and holes.

He also underlines his statement that the axle had compartment and holes, by saying that you (Wagner) even can ask
those who grasped the axle. We can therefore assume that more than one person has touched the axle of the wheel,
it seems that there is no name recorded at least not in the AP books.

Beside that written evidence it makes (to me) a lot of sense that the axle had compartments and holes since we also know
that the weights acted in pairs.

I personally believe that those weights acted in pairs were interconnected through those compartments and holes in the axle.

As a last argument and evidence we can even see MT drawings showing linked weight-pairs connected by cross-tensions
and as it obviously seems through the axle of the wheel.

With best regards,
Nobody
