The Future of Bessler’s Wheel.

Assuming a working model of Bessler’s wheel materialises very soon,  apart from generating electricity, I’m always interested in other potential uses /benefits arising from the design.  The world will be looking for ways to use it.  We have discussed many times the potential for energy generation and there are as many doubters as proponents of the potential for useful electricity generation.  For me it's simply a matter of scale; if you can produce a tiny amount of electricty from a small machine then a bigger one will produce more.  How much bigger the wheel would have to be remains to be seen, but as I have often said, several wheels in series, on one axle obviously has a much larger capacity to produce multiple amounts of power than a single wheel.

There are other possibilities for its use.  In third world dry climates there is the potential to pump water from wells, irrigation of crops, greening of deserts, air-conditioning and refrigeration units.  In cold climates there are a number of ways to produce pwarmth into suitably insulated buildings. But what of the actual mechanical design, might it be adaptable for other mechanisms?

I mentioned many years ago that because a working Bessler wheel would be changing linear motion into rotary motion, there could be potential for using the Bessler mechanism in a similar but alternative way, a reversal of the action.  So a device which converts rotary motion into a linear one. I'm thinking of an inertial thruster but not a reactionless drive.  So the mechanism is driven in reverse by, say, a small electric motor which rotates a disc with a weight on its circumference to produce a linear force on one side of the rotating mechanism.  Such a device mounted on wheels should cause it to move in the direction of the force.  It might even offer a space drive. Who knows if it would work, but logically if Bessler's wheel worked then so should this.

Once the technique Bessler invented is known, better ways of achieving the same thing may well  be invented and his design relegated to the history books, but that is progress and highly desirable.

Johann Bessler’s Annual Greetings to Karl the Landgrave of Hesse Kassel.

At the beginning of November I posted a ‘curious fact’, about how Bessler sent Karl a special greeting each year, on his name day, full of thanks and praise for the Landgrave, these were full of his favourite chronograms, each including the date of the document.  One curious feature was the discovery that he composed special editions dated 1519, 1619, 1719, 1819, 1919 and 2019!  Perhaps he anticipate that it would take another 300 rears or so to decipher his clues and produce a working model of his wheel?

I promised to post photos of all twelve greetings in case anyone wanted to study them and see if they could find evidence that there was hidden information in them.  The quality is not good but at least they are in public view and perhaps copies of the originals can be obtained.

The quality is not brilliant but you can enlarge them and maybe find the key to unravelling any kind of information hidden in the page.  I might be wrong of course in which case these pages can remain available for future consideration or not.

Anyway I’ve wanted to publish these for a long time. Good luck.

My Interesting Career up to and Including Bessler

Following recent comments about my suggested Bessler codes and my interpretations of them, here is a brief resume indicating my expertise and experience in this field of research.

Having studied Bessler and his history for many years before I wrote a biography about him, I self-published it on the internet.

My first web site went up in January 1997, 28 years ago.  I wasn’t very computer literate then and I was helped by my son-in-law who did have a degree in this very early days of computers and the internet.  Here’s a screen shot from the wayback machine.

After that I posted a number of web sites, each including unique information about Bessler.  Eventually I had to let some of them lapse as they were proving too expensive to maintain.  I obtained every scrap of documentation connected with Bessler, including his publications, and found a fascinating polymath with an incredibly eclectic range of interests and abilities who kindly translated everything I threw at him.  Mike was a genius but unfortunately no longer with us. It is to him we all owe our thanks and I would ask you all to recognise and realise thst every quotation you use from this subject and published me, was originally translated by Mike.

The other web sites still active are listed below and if you wish to know more I recommend you visit each.

One more thing; the search box at the top of the right hand panel is a good way to find and read any posts I’ve made on a subject.  For instance, ‘pentagram’, ‘Five’, ‘golden ratio’, ‘137’,I ‘codes’ to mention just a few.  Each page comes complete with all the comments.

I began my interest at age fifteen, but did not get into research until I was about 30.  I joined the British Library and had my first experience of actually handling a copy of ‘Das Triumphirende’ (DT). I knew Bessler’s own hands had touched the book where my hands had. Subsequently, during a visit Karlshafen I managed to buy a copy of that book!

I was in the BSAP for two years, before joining the RAF for seven years as an aircraft engine fitter before moving to the British Aircraft Corporation where I worked on the Concord. Later I became a consultant engineer.

I’ve been interviewed on the radio several times,  mostly  in the U.K., although I did experience a memorable interview on a Redneck radio.  Also I was flown to Rome by RAI 1 TV, to take part in a discussion about Bessler, and which was broadcast as a documentary.  I did not perform well as the discussion was in Italian and the ‘experts’ all spoke in Italian!

The following web sites contain much information and are well worth a visit.

Read My Hypothesis On Johann Bessler’s Wheel.

Over the last few years I have tended to spend a lot of time and effort in finding Johann Bessler’s clues and seeking the correct meaning and intention.  I hoped that armed with as  much information as possible and shared as widely as possible, I or some other person or persons would finally find the solution and share it worldwide.  At this time the numerous ways of spreading this kind of information could not be better, thanks to the internet and all its variants.

I know I’ve come in for a bit of stick for not sharing my designs but hopefully my work on this old website will prove interesting. Click on each button on the left side of the page for more information.

www.besslerswheel.com

So in  2009 I began this blog and the following year I published my latest thinking about Bessler’s wheel.   Since 2009 my blog has managed to publish 869 posts and receive 30958 comments, 2862932 views.  I also made a YouTube video about Bessler in 2009 Viewed 19321 times.

The numbers look impressive until you realise they cover 15 years or so!

Fifteen years ago, I published some of my  ideas about how I thought Johann Bessler’s perpetual motion machine worked.  You can read them on my website at www.besslerswheel.com.  Back then, I had some interesting thoughts and I tried to express them with what I thought were valid points and apart from several details, I have more or less continued to support them.

My apologies for the fact that the text slightly overlaps its boundaries which makes it necessary to move it with two fingers in order to read the whole line, sometimes.  This happens on my iPad but not my laptop. I’m trying to alter the boundaries of the text but it’s not so simple.  

Briefly, I will first mention the words Bessler used to describe his machine thus, “according to the laws of perpetual motion, so arranged that certain disposed weights once in rotation, gain force from their own swinging, and must continue their movement as long as their structure does not lose its position and arrangement”

I will also point out that MT contains two illustrations containing swings.  MT 85 and 86.

You will discover my reason for sticking to the need for five mechanisms.

It was I, who introduced the ancient art of “kiiking” to the world of Bessler, as a curiosity. Just google the word “kiiking”.

You can read my theories on how Bessler’s wheel worked, they have moved on a bit since 2010, but I still believe they hold the key to success.

Did Johann Bessler Find Another Place to Secure His Coded information?

When Karl the Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel described Bessler’s wheel as simple and expressed surprise that it hadn’t been invented before, I think that gives a misleading impression about the wheel’s construction.   Yes, it was easy to understand when you could see it in action, but without that information available to one’s eyes, even with a written description it would be difficult to get the details correct.  When you add Bessler’s disguised hints and clues it confuses what one thinks one understands or knows.

Bessler also embedded pieces of information in some of his drawings, but again these were designed to inform but also to deflect instant conclusions from their eventual true meaning.  

Thus we find ourselves with so many pieces of information which can be pulled together resulting in a mishmash of half right and half wrong constructions which fail over and over again.

But in the end we can remind ourselves that the inventor succeeded in building a gravity-enabled wheel which rotated continuously for 54 days in one test and numerous short runs over many years.  It is clear that he intended us to find the correct solution, dropping hints that the information was available to anyone with a particular interest in looking. But he made it so damned difficult, that even though we believe him and we study every word and image he left, we still can’t seem to find the solution….yet.

His primary intention should he fail to find a buyer for his machine, would seem to have been achieving acknowledgement for inventing his perpetual motion machine.  Even though he occasionally referred to it, as just that; a perpetual motion machine;  he pointed out on more than one occasion, that his machine could run continuously but may be brought to a stop for a number of different reasons; worn parts, broken parts, external influences or just that everything wears out in time.  It could run continuously but not perpetually, but per se, as if it were a PM machine.

What was in his mind when he originally placed coded information in  Gruendlicher Bericht, which was his first publication? It looks like an advertising booklet and although there is little or no sign of coding, it does contain his first published image of his wheel, and that definitely contains embedded information about the design of his wheel.  Obviously he planned to hide information in plain sight to coincide with his first certified attestation that his machine was genuine.  The first public test was witnessed and signed by several people of more than local importance

Here’s a curious fact. Bessler sent Karl a special greeting each year, on his name day, full of thanks and praise for the Landgrave, these were full of his favourite chronograms, each including the date of the document.  One curious feature was the discovery that he composed special editions dated 1519, 1619, 1719, 1819, 1919 and 2019!  Perhaps he anticipate that it would take another 300 rears or so to decipher his clues and produce a working model of his wheel?

I have never studied these documents other than in a cursory manner because I did not have my good friend Mike Senior who did all the translation for my books available, because he passed away before I obtained them.  It is obvious from studying them that Bessler spent a lot of time and effort in designing them and I’m not sure if Karl would have had the time and inclination to do more than admire Bessler’s work.  This begs the question, why did Bessler take so much trouble?

One thing is certain; every single document issued and received by Karl, was duly recorded and saved, and I think that Bessler had this in mind when he created these items addressed personally to the Landgrave.  What better way to ensure any information hidden within the documents is still available every year until now?

I plan to publish pictures of them here as soon as I can do so.  I may have to post small versions of the originals as they are a little larger than A4.  I’ll try to make them as sharp as I can to allow downloads which can be enlarged. There are in total twelve pages some containing text and other chronograms with Bible references

My purpose in this is to make them available to as many people as possible so any attempts at translating and deciphering the content can be posted here or elsewhere.  The encoding appears to include some pages of chronograms with Bible references attached and that leaves the widest possible option for codes of varying kind, for deciphering.

NB    A chronogram is a word, phrase, or sentence with specific letters that are interpreted as Roman numerals to represent a date. These inscriptions can be found in various contexts, from historical monuments and poetry to modern applications like a type of phylogenetic tree with branch lengths proportional to time. The word itself means "time writing," combining the Greek words chronos and gramma.

NB    Karl’s nameday is not a standard historical record for him. However, he was born on August 3, 1654, and his baptism date was August 17, 1654, which may be related to a name day celebration.

There are examples of Bessler’s chronograms in all three of Bessler’s published books.
