Hi SK,
While the pendulums seemed to accompany all drawings of Bessler's wheels, they were never reported by witnesses.
The pendulums were intended as a speed controller. In this respect they would have functioned to decrease free running wheel speed while maintaining low speed torque. The earlier axle bolt speed brake controller method would have decreased wheel speed through friction alone, sacrificing low speed torque.
Good luck with your attempt.

: Thank you for everyone who interesed to me.
: I am very sorry for my English is too Bad.
: But Scott has understand my question very well.
: : When Bessler removed and replaced the weights in the wheel (such as when it was moved from one set of supports to another), is there any record of exactly where on the wheel the removal/replacement occurred? - Scott.
: And to Georg Künstler:
: I Think the number of weights is not 4.
: I saw your idea from this site.
: Also tried to understand your idea but it was very difficult.
: Any way in my design, the number of the weights is not 4.
: To Darren:
: I think your comment is also important.
: But bessler's wheel also need initial push, and start in a low speed and within 2 or 3 rotation the wheel get the maximum speed.
: To achieve this the wheel need accuracy. In my case the diameter is 40 cm. Small wheel need great accuracy compare to bigger one.
: To John:
: Thank you for your effort to reveal the truth.
: My wheel design is bi-directional. My wheel meet almost every clues in this site. Only one thing to make me confusing is arm.
: It is very big different elastic arm or movable arm.
: In the clue session :
: Weights were attached to moveable or elastic arms on the periphery of the wheel.
: This clue is very confusing clue.
: And I have a question to everyone, about T-shaped pendulum in the picture.
: What do you think about the pendulum.
: Is it helpful to the wheel or just a load?
: I think it is just a load.
: Thank you for everyone's comments
