Is it that bad? I think you did a great job!
In the meantime I think you are developping your own design instead of creating Sanjay's... or am I wrong?
i think my computer speed is to slow to do an accurate sim.
Speed is only bad if you have no patients. When I had a 8086 PC it worked all week to simulate a spinning top. With a pentium 1 it did it in real-time (and in full-color with background)

Very nice and colorful 3D graphics you've produced. It's too bad that Snpssaini could not have provided us with some clear images like this. If so, then maybe we could have done a better job of trying to evaluate his design instead of having to guess at what the correct proportions in it are.
Anyway, I notice that you have the weights in the "spider" depicted as flat plates. I would have made them cylindrical so as to minimize air resistance IF they able to turn on their own (which I still doubt).
I think I have to disagree with Ralph on one point. I think your version would work if the outermost plate weights near the wheel's rim were placed under a waterfall!

On 7/6/06, I found, in any overbalanced gravity wheel with rotation rate, ω, axle to CG distance d, and CG dip angle φ, the average vertical velocity of its drive weights is downward and given by:
So far, we have no proof that Snpssaini's wheel works and at least one CAD model that shows what he posted is unworkable. Most likely, we do not have the actual design that he is working on and probably never will. I suspect that we have heard the last from him...

"Complete this drawing and make the machine."
Guys, you have forgotten that the drawing is to complete :-))
It is a little as say: "finds the way to obtain the perpetual motion and you will be rich".
I looks like Sanjay did not get as warm a welcome over at the Physics Forums as he did here. But, even here where we are more "receptive" to the possibility of perpetual motion, interest in his device seems to be rapidly fading.
I think that it is still not too late to reverse this, but Sanjay is going to have to supply us with more information and, most importantly, some numbers with respect to the dimensions of the parts used in his claimed 5 meter wheel.
But, as I wrote before...I suspect that we have heard the last of him.

Nice catch on Sanjay thread you posted above. I picked it up on another forum about a year and a half ago before I joined here. He never did post all the pictures.
Trevie, I have never thought that snpssaini had the solution for the perpetual motion (gravity engine). Maybe I have expressed myself with wrong words because of my very bad english. I was intending to say that if snpssaini had had a working model I do not think that he would have never come here and neither on other sites (forum).
I think that if it had had the solution indeed, this news would have arrived in other way. I suppose that snpssaini is in our same conditions: research.
