Nice to have you back George impressive builds as ever, happy new year, i don't quite have the time at present to evaluate your design but will get back to you soon, so glad to see a well built wheel thanks for sharing talk soon Andy ,oh happy new year to all, better late than never.

funny i was pondering this question today and i did tests on a 8 compartment wheel removing one from one side creates 22.5 degrees of motion with a small amount of momentum but 5 weights and release one and you still get 22.5 degrees but more momentum i think this is because the weight is being move...

frog save the world from your words and simply show your design working, there are many ways to communicate but as the old saying goes a picture speaks a thousand words , these guys sit up all night all day and think, they are devoted to help us all, i am so proud to be one of them, make your design...

Roxs love your approach with the outer rim moving over to drive the imbalance ,great design, well presented , correct me if i am wrong but the outer rim will create a imbalance but it is really low compared to the energy in and out , i can not explain it any better but the from a few experiments i d...

Hi Robinhood its my fault for not being as clear as i should be , i think the bolt which as far as i know was only on his first prototype and its my thought that the bolt was put in place to watch the reaction at slow speed so he could truly see what was happening i know that he knew but studying a ...

Thanks Robinhood just to answer your point a hand brake when not in contact is not in contact as you know it creates friction to stop so what if besslers bolt did just that and when in contact regulated the machine and when unscrewed enough allowed both systems to run freely its only a couple of mm ...

Sam i see your point but in order to work in both directions these have to swop positions for this to work in the opposite arrangement i am sure you have seen this being a highly skilled worker and communicator ,how do you do this and where ? sorry not really been following your blog my fault just c...

Yes you are right mr tim the bolt could do all these things but if the wheel was a two directional machine that did not rely on being out of balance which my system does then this bolt would be the simple solution to rpm control, what i have done is found a system that is controllable with a bolt wh...

Hi all , my point in the bolt to restrict rpm is how can it do it ?in my mind at this moment in time says if a bolt is tightened to control rpm not instantly stop it but control it as is stated then that would mean that a bolt touches another face and slows and controls it now the problem is as said...

Besslers first wheel was controlled by a bolt that could be loosened and the wheel would rotate, surely the simple answer to this clue is that the wheel had two sides one side moved in one direction and the other the opposite , ok so i could be wrong but the simplist solution is generally the best o...

i would equally suggest that most of his designs he thought were close to the mark he spent a lot of time drawing up very accurately as do i when i feel close

thx4 very nice find so good to see fellow builders being them selves as idiosyncratic as it may be, admiration is a under statement worth a deeper look i think, a inspiration is coming ,many thanks good find great share

Cheers Calloway very interesting and inspiring ,i was shown a 3 springed arrangement last week but this one is better i can not imagine it will create over unity but it really is inspiring to watch the construction and it running many thanks Andy

Hi all i thought today i have a clue possibly solved ,the uppermost weight must remain out side the center of gravity , i have struggled with this one for years now, but i think i have that clue solved, my thoughts are as other's have shown that a weight being forced to move across the zenith causes...

hi guys love this approach the weights taking a position under the center of g the axis works but as you say creates very low returns and keels later any way but what is does expose is the energy at the top which is needed to create motion over all but what is needed is energy at the fall and energy...
