A quick clarification please Darren.
Grim asked you:
: : By the way, Darren. You never did answer my one question: Does your model self-start?
You replied:
: I have decided for now to go with the uni-directional design
Grim asks about a "model", you reply about a "design".
In a previous post
( http://www.besslerwheel.com/wwwboard/messages/1330.html )
You said:
"A design immedately preceeding my current design also produced OU (about 20%) but would never turn bi-directionally, get up over 10 RPM, and required an intergral, aligned base. I used what Bessler called "several a priori... laws of mechanical perpetual motion"
Here you refer to "design" but use the past tense "produced" implying it happened in the past - is this "theoretical output" or something that actually happened?
You seem to imply that at some point in recent history, you have modelled a working "O/U" gravity device that runs at 10 RPM...
If that is so, what are you and we all waiting for???
Why not just go for verification of that one???
We could get a "suitable person" there in a matter of days. They could sign up for confidentiality on the principles etc etc, but then if genuine put us all out of our misery by saying "Yes - Darren has cracked it..."
You yourself said in a more recent post:
"...just to get a wheel to turn itself *seriously* messes with our current laws of the universe"
So for the record:
-- Do you have an existing, demonstrable MODEL that continues to turn (even if started manually)?
-- What is the longest period it has turned for?
-- When in a state of rest after running, why did it stop (i.e. did you intervene?)
-- If so, can it do _CONTINUAL WORK_ indefinitely? If so roughly how much?
Thanks!
Nick
