Yes, you and your carpenter Georg will prove or disprove your hypothesis. And that's the time to really get into what's happening, when you can see the wheel react in front of you. Sometimes builds need tweaking for a while, if they aren't performing exactly as expected. That's part of the process of learning and also takes some time. As always good luck and I hope you don't have to wait too long to find some concrete answers.Georg Künstler wrote:

Bessler has given so many clues, but the difference what he had explained will not be seen. As more you look as more it hides.
When you look at Silvertigers Impetus thread, then you can see that a Weight will not stop. It likes to go in the Devened direction.
No one will see that a rolling cylinder is also a pendulum, but with an Offset to the turning axle of the main Wheel. A cylinder can be stopped at any Position and therefore can create torque.
But anyway, I (My Carpenter) will built it. I take the burden to prove it.
"All what is in the Bessler wheel is covered from Physics. It is only the arrangement of the movable weights."
Well, I might suggest that what was inside JB's wheels is certainly covered by the Laws of Nature. It may even be covered by the subset Laws of Physics. In fact it probably is since for all intents and purposes it is only and arrangement of moveable weights as you say. That's covered nicely by Newton.
Where the Laws of Physics come up short IMO is explaining for a purely gravity enabled wheel to work is where the energy to do Physics Work (includes frictional losses) comes from ? Currently it can't be explained in advance AFAIK.
And the missing connection between conservative force and Work/Energy in that context comes from a simple comparison.
KE and GPE.
m1/2v^2 = mgh ... for (and at) any vertical height.
The equations can be manipulated to find or compare a number of things. But not where a surplus energy hides in the wheel work of nature, which leads to excess momentum, IMO.
