Final Video from me for this weekend, because as usual working away and back home on the Friday.

Was a good day, but the only stator that showed anything near moving as per Mylow's was the first one.

Will work on getting some Stator magnets this week that are closer to Mylow's.

Anyway last video as said above

Oh and to a couple of people on this thread.

Why the fuck are you here?. If this stuff is not possible and it is set in stone for you, then why the hell are you even in these forums?

Let the Nerds be the Nerds and do what they want to do. I do not like painting pictures of Fruit, but I do not visit the Fruit Painters forums and examine the reasons why they are doing it, let alone sit there questioning their reasons why.
That is their choice, so I will leave them alone in their little world to do what they enjoy. I have no right to barge in there and start slagging off their enjoyment of what they are doing.

Cheers

Sean.

@Clanzer

Ditto that and then some.

Just saw your video with thanks. I only mentioned about the stator field not being the same because I think somewhere you had mentioned that the polarities came off the end of the protrusions whereas we can clearly see they are coming off each end. Good to know. Thanks and have a good week.

@Mylow

Thanks for your last video. But please, please do not worry about all the guys here that say all this is a joke. Just leave them be. You have done all you can do and we thank you immensely for all the attention and videos. Now it is the turn of replicators. @Clanzer already has his wheel and is lucky to be working on it. I hope to have mine by end of next week. There are surely others that will have their wheel and between all of us, I am sure we will be able to reproduce your effects soon enough. Don't forget you have been working on this for a long time and we have only started or yet to start so be patient.

Just found this little gem at Ace Hardware.  Don't think anybody has mentioned this one.  1 3/16" length across the poles, 1" wide, 1" deep.
Alnico horseshoe.  PN 07270.  $10.99.  Looks peachy to me!

G'day all,

Howard Johnson published a book in 2006 entitled The secret world of magnets. It is still in print as far as I know.

However, there is a copy of it on the net in pdf form. I don't know if this breaches copyright laws, I should think so, but never mind. It is fascinating and amongst other things explains the construction and workings of his gate.

You will find it here:  http://www.scribd.com/doc/34317/Spintronics-The-Secret-World-of-Magnets-2006-by-Howard-Johnson?autodown=pdf  Well worth the read.

So I got an email from Mylow today. I asked him personally to put the 10 minutes video up so we all get that "good enough evidence" to satisfy the more inquisitive people of this forum and possibly release potential members here to work even harder on this problem and get this device out as soon as possible.

I DO believe in OU and I even think Bearden has a good theory to explain and reconcile that (with thermodynamics ammendements to the law) with current know science. If I did not believe I would not spend hours, days and months creating stupid experiments, making videos and publishing them on youtube so others can laugh at me for free. I got my share of scorns from others too. But I still continue...

Mylow answered:
"when i get a stronger stator i will ok please understand that this stator is very week now so even if i got the motor working agian it wont spin due to that weak stator magnet"

So i guess we will have to wait for him to get his machine back into working mode again.

Fausto.

@ Hans Thanks for the reading
@Omnibus, don't feel bad, I got blocked yesterday, and I supported the guy!
@ Clanzer, thanks for the videos and the f-bombs
@Mylow, thanks for your latest videos
@all, them chinese folk make a really good magnet...more to come

[plengo]

@CLaNZeR,

good work man!

Would you be willing to share where you got those magnets from so that I can purchase them too and start experimenting? If possible, even the wheel that you have?

Fausto.

Hi Hans -
I posted this file in the downloads section here last week, so you can easily download from here (without having to signup for scribd etc.) 
It is a great read and offers some unique theories on magnets.
There is no copyright listed anywhere in the document.

New file posted in downloads:
Howard Johnson: Secret World of Magnets

I uploaded a 45 page .pdf by Howard Johnson (2.5 MB)
It discusses magnetic gates, vortices within a magnet, details of his 'banana' curved/cupped magnets etc.
Some different and interesting magnet theory is presented and worth the read.

It does not matter what we all do in life, it should be respected as that is our right to do crazy stuff without hurting others, when we want to without being judged.

Cheers

Sean.

Good on you Sean, This has my vote any time of the day

Hi Fausto

Okay, just for you mate

http://eclipse-magnetics.co.uk/product/magnet-materials/cast-alnico/minor

Part number M4144ANK at £0.90 each

You can now see how my layout fits with the 8mm wide Rotor magnets I have.

The stators are E824 the closest I could get to Mylow's at the time

http://eclipse-magnetics.co.uk/product-categories/magnets/castalnicomagnets/buttons

The Rotor I got a CNC shop in UK to do for me. Are you in the UK?

Cheers

Sean.

i don't know for the others.
i am here because i wanted to believe.
the problem is what my eyes are seeing in the various videos.

Ex:
one video show a counter weight and the disk rotate clock wise.
that disk was not at level, to me, as i noticed that it got a tendency to move by itself at some point.
no, it was not when near the magnets.

an other video, on same table, without the counter weight, rotate counter clock wise.
clearly, to me, and some other have noticed it too, that disk is not at level.
it exhibit the reverse of the previous video, that lead me to think that the stator magnet is weaker then the gravity pull on the rotor magnets.


hopefully you will prove me wrong and that what i noticed have no effect at all on this device

Hi NOP

I also have seen a number of anomalies in Mylow's video's and you are right to check them out.

All part of the ride

Cheers

Sean.

It seems in my searching around for magnets that the most important component to be able to source cheaply will be the rotor magnet, since there are so many of them in the device.

Every alnico I've seen that comes close to Mylow's size that is in stock are way too expensive to be feasible for an open source project that needs to be affordable.

I would like to try for something along the lines of what was posted the other day:
http://peswiki.com/index.php/OS:MYLOW:Variants

alnico 5 vs neo40 + 1006 steel

The question is one of sourcing here:

Where might I get little chunks of 1006 steel that would match up with a small magnet, to mimic the shape of the alnico channel magnet?

I'd like to target a price of $1 per rotor magnet equivalent.

Suggestions?

I'd even be willing to try something 2x bigger in magnet size than what Mylow used, as long as I can find a stator magnet that meets the criteria he described the other day: long enough to span two rotor magnets and their gaps and overlap onto the third rotor magnet.

I would appreciate it if one of you could point me to a set of materials that will match up.

We have people in the San Francisco area who could most likely machine the rotor disc part, if only we can find the magnets.

I so much want to have one of these Mylow motors running to set in front of the San Jose University group we'll be presenting to on Thursday night.

McMaster-Carr is one of the few, easy sources for 1006 steel.  It is reasonable priced and comes in many dimensions.  If you go with 1018 steel etc., there are many more sources.

(edit: other 1018 steel online suppliers in order of preference but McMaster is good too:)

Studying Howard Johnson's book The secret world of magnets I came across the drawing below. It shows the magnetic orientation of the C shaped magnets he was so fond of. Surprisingly they are not magnetised like a horseshoe magnet.

Of Significance? I don't know. Worth knowing though.

Did you buy direct from Eclipse?, I don`t see any prices on their website.
