Hi D. or David or Rick T. or whatever you are,

Your question: "...What about Karls testimony that it was a simple arrangement of weights and levers ie. pendula?..."

Answer: Karl never made that 'testimonial'. But if Karl never said that, then who did? Looks like you got some homework.

: : I don't think everyone is completely dismissing the clues, on the contrary. The wheel *needs* to have a rythmic force happening inside, similar to a pendulum, for the wheel to even work... but... that pendulus force won't be created by a classic, swinging, pendulum shaped component.

: How do you know?...


: : "Swinging weights" is a very vague description. Don't automatically read "grandfather clock pendulum" into this.

: :
: : : One weight moves out, one moves in

: :
: : This statement actually *contradicts* the idea of a classic grandfather clock type mechanism because this describes two objects, one moving in and one moving out, and a pendulum is but a single object.

: NOT...if its pendula-more than one.

:
: :
: : : Wheel can be changed by the modification of pendula etc.

: :
: : "Pendula" could be referring to the exterior pendula that he attached (in some drawings) to regulate the wheels. Doesn't necessarily mean they were required for it's functioning.

:
: What about roundabout eye witness testimony, Ie. wolf stating he felt there were moveable arms on the outside?

: What about Karls testimony that it was a simple arrangement of weights and levers ie. pendula? Where... does Bessler state at all that the Pendula accompanying his drawings were "speed" modificators?
