I believe, that the wheel is actually two separate primary sections.

The first is the area where the extra power is added by the falling mass

The second is the area where the extra power is put into the wheel to keep it moving

Each works with the other, but by thinking about it as a separate area we can begin to unravel the mystery once and for all.

The storage and transfer of the additional energy is the key     How he did that is the missing link.

Simple is as simple does....... Bessler told many stories in his rantings and ravings about all of the skills that he had mastered.  These skills led him to the discovery of the secret to the power to create his wheels.  It would  appear, that great minds think alike, and that following his progressions of this journey and the skills acquired      

would    

when mastered    

lead us to the very same place.

Simple              and are ye yet without understanding ?

I keep returning to the comment from Karl of Kassel

"so simple that a carpenters boy could make it"

Simple     Not Complex

                Simple

Now that we understand the BASIC design principle we can move forward............

Simple

Bessler said.......

"  Many would-be Mobile-makers think that if they can arrange for some of the weights to be a little more distant from the center than the others, then the thing will surely revolve. A few years ago, I learned all about this the hard way. And then the truth of the old proverb came home to be that one has to learn through bitter experience "

This is a powerful clue and design criteria.

Fact 1

an object that at rest weighs one pound

that same object when dropped will have an impact force of more than 1 lb
depending on the distance it drops

Mass times Acceleration = Force         M x A = F

Today   Sept 7th is a Great Day   The final pieces of the puzzle a revealing themselves to me.

" And are ye yet without understanding " is a clear clue that Bessler left for us to use.  I am always reviewing his clues to find more information.  If you look very closely at the drawing you will notice that the triangles are not touching near the center.  That is because they are merely a corral or framework for the activities inside.  3 sections large and 3 sections small add up to 3    90 degree areas and 3     30 degree areas.  In poetica he made a number of simple analysis.  The bow trangs, seer sees, the anvil receives many blows.  These are the natural activities of those devices.  Nothing magical..... Do not make this complicated keeps ringing in my ears.  So simple a carpenters boy could replicate it !  It cannot be complicated,  even Bessler said that once his secret is known then he thought that people would not believe it was worth the asking price because it was so simple.   so simple.  Yet after 300 years we still do not have his motive force captured.  The motive force is gravity.  Their understanding of gravity and its permeation was not clearly understood in his days, but it was still there for him to harness and use.   In closely examining his other clues....... physical clues    I believe it is obvious to reach this conclusion.  The wheels were becoming larger in each new demonstration, and more powerful with these increases.   So I believe he was adding sections of this basic design.

Each section of 3 was able to sustain itself.   lets say 100 % plus 10 %.   Bessler also stated that he was not able to make much power until he added more bars which I read as sections...... so with every section, timed correctly, he was able to add more and more power.  If the power pulse was 3 times per revolution, then by adding 2 more sections you would have 9 power pulses per revolution or and by adding sections time correctly he could even go up to 360 power pulses per rev.  Timing is the key to adding more power, but without a set format the pulses between sections could not achieve the required benefit to the whole.  Each section gained a little, and more sections meant more power to the device.

Bigger is better

Today, we are in the final stages of the lifting of the veil that Bessler kept closed.  It is now obvious, that the energy required to lift the opposite must be stored and released into the mass of the wheel.  The action must be similar to that of a jet engine....... continuous without cessation in a continuous motion.

Thanks be to John Collins and his tireless work, but the real hero is Bessler himself.

The gile of someone to tell me that they have done something, that is so simple that a carpenter's boy could replicate it easily, has always been the driving force for me.  No amount of good will can ever drive the human mind like that of disgust.  I am confident that we are in the final days, if not the final hours to the discovery in all its glory.
