After some testing with a "near working" principle, I found that the unbalance from "normal" construction error/headroom will not be of any problem...
The weights are quite large... from 1 Kg in the smallest wheel to 10 Kg in the largest. With a flywheel (Bessler used that) construction unbalance will not affect the wheel/power.
Because there will only be ereas with more or less pull, but that is solved as I said with a flywheel !

: First thought:
: I've attempted a rudimentary wheel with swinging weights based on a bicycle wheel, not really expecting any "perpetual" motion, but just to see how a weighted wheel might act. Now, my wheel is just slightly out of balance, so after spinning a while it slows down and eventually reaches a point where it stops and then rotates backward to equilibrium. Question: Is eveyone working on wheel construction assumptions that are perfectly balanced (except for the over-balance driving force)? I don't think Bessler could have achieved a perfectly balanced wheel structure given the materials, size, and orientation of the wheel. The over-balance would also need to overcome the imbalance of the mechanical parts.
: Thought two:
: Has anyone looked into combining the ideas of GIT's (gyroscopic inertial thrusters - another "free-energy" idea) into the Bessler wheel? The idea of a GIT is to produce an inertial force vector from rotating motion and the idea of Bessler wheel is to produce rotating motion from inertial force vector (gravity).
