But if he come up with something that's just different then there's a new chance.

They all consume energy. There is no way they can be used as generators. What you can do is just increasing efficiency and thus constructing a very long lasting motion. Beleive the science. However I still beleive Bessler was not a fraud. There must be something else.

LOL!)<br /><br />Well, I do hope that John has, finally, gotten it all figured out. That would really be nice and quite appropriate for the 300th Anniversary of Bessler's first publicly demonstrated wheel. However, what's really important here is that John is still trying to solve the mystery whether he's on the "right" or "wrong track" as I like to say. I intend to celebrate June 6th whether or not THE solution arrives on that day. <br /><br />Most people who find out about Bessler and his inventions tend to declare the whole thing a hoax and him a charlatan. Some, being a bit more open minded, will admit that he certainly did it but, after their own first few failed attempts (if they even make them!), declare that its an impossible task to figure out how he did it or, otherwise, it would have been done CENTURIES ago.<br /><br />It takes a VERY rare and dedicated mobilist, indeed, to hang in there despite failure after failure and focus his energies EXCLUSIVELY on trying to find out exactly how BESSLER did do it. Unfortunately, there have been many UNworkable alternate approaches to PM which have been proposed over the centuries. They tend to pop up like toxic mushrooms century after century and have drained off countless mobilist-hours of effort that have only accomplished ZERO, but might have finally found the secret of Bessler's wheels IF all of that effort that had been wasted could, instead, have been devoted to the "right track" approach to finding the solution. I now refer to these total time wasting approaches as "wrong track" approaches and those who are devoted (actually obsessed!) with them, as "wrong trackers". Sadly, I was one of them for more time than I'd like to admit to (measured in DECADES, not years!).<br /><br />IF one really wants to find the solution that BESSLER did, then he needs to stick with the best translations AND their interpretations of as many of the clues as he can find and then...I'll say it again..."Build, baby, build!" There really is no other way.<br /><br />BTW, John, I did visit your gravitywheel.com page and read up on the mechanism you've "moved on from" and I can see why. As the wheel turns CCW, the pairs of shifting levers passing 6:00 will shift their CoM back a bit toward the descending side (left side) of the wheel. But, this will then pose a fatal problem as each of the five mechanisms rotates toward the 12:00 position from the ascending side (right side) of wheel.technoguynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-79280115968288592172012-04-11T21:04:34.620+01:002012-04-11T21:04:34.620+01:00Another ashamed anon, or maybe the same one.

LOL! <br /><br />I will know rather quickly if you are on the "right track" or not. I look forward to seeing the design for the "magic lever" that you have derived, your interpretation of the "Connectedness Principle", and, most importantly, what I call the "Secret Principle" which relates to the unique spring suspension system that Bessler employed in order to make the ascending sides of his wheels "light and empty" while it made their descending sides "heavy and full" (a reference to the fixing of their weights' CoM on a rotating drum's descending side). I also EAGERLY look forward to your interpretations of the ALL IMPORTANT DT portrait symbols which contain the coded instructions for constructing his wheels!technoguynoreply@blogger.com
