July 17    More Progress

The last few days have been a real scorcher here in TX   feel like temps of 114   Y E O W

The verification of how the wheel sees the weight (feels) is now completed.  It is clear, now, that eventually whatever is occurring with a single weight, it must be, in the end, in direct contact with the basic structure.  The movement of a single weight, if done so at the proper time, will keep the whole thing turning.    This realization has brought into focus a clarity that the number of mechanisms is not a deciding factor, the more the merrier, though, they must be working in harmony with the others.  That the wheel has weights that work in pairs builds another bit of clarity, so the setup should in multiples of 2.    2 or 4 or 6 or 8  etc

The movement of the weights as they fall is merely to generate power, that power is then used in two different events, one is the gentle "Push" at the perimeter and the other is changing the position (moment arm) of where the wheel sees the very same weight.  This interaction is the KEY

No running wheel as of this date so I am still seeking..............with thoughts of NEVER giving up 

For I am a Perpetuum Mobilist
