John Collins has finally released his data. I find it most interesting. There was a version of the wheel that I fabricated last year that had as its basis a series of smaller wheels. On a 5 ft diameter wheel, I had 4 smaller wheels that were each out of balance. With a reasonable push that wheel would spin 60 revolutions before stopping. It was the longest running wheel that I have ever made. The key was that the weights on the other wheels moved as the wheels centrifical force and gravity dictated. When they were showing up in the right place at the right time in harmony with the other weights. It really speaks of Johns thoughts. But there was no mechanism for holding or preventing the weights from progressing to another position. It was so unique, in its movement that I spent hours....... spinning and watching. When it was in resonance with itself it definitely showed signs of acceleration. My work schedule, at this time, is not allowing me the freedom of thought that you must have to really get into the mechanisms. But, I can easily see where JC is coming from and applaud his revelations. I am drawn to the Yin/Yan symbol...... not sure why... Resonance...Harmony...do not push against...Thanks to John for his dedication and willingness to just get this thing out there. We can do this, there is not a single doubt in my mind.

Bessler said that the machine was flowing like the falling of raindrops. That idea has stuck with me for so many hours of contemplation. This idea coupled with the words that the weight must be applied 90 degrees to the axle of the wheel .............combine to make the larger diameter so important. Moment Arm is the key,.........Moment arm as long as possible on one hand and Moment arm as short as possible on the other. That movement, must occur, where there is the least path of resistance, so it must occur in the horizontal plane. So moving the weights from close to the axle to far from the axle must be the focus of all other sources of drag. The energy that is generated from the law of falling weights is paramount to the program, but the smooth transition of catching and releasing is not that easy to accomplish. A true overbalanced wheel would require a cord to keep it from spinning. That is exactly what Bessler had to do with his first wheels. That must be our focus The Overbalanced Wheel

2010 The years of years

This time of a New Year always sets the stage for our creativity to come forth, and I am at this time busily involved in my latest wheel. The individual pieces for 8 major components is always a daunting task. To make sure that each piece is identical to the previous and not have any mistakes does test your discipline for sure. I make lots of progress over the New Years Holiday time and will keep on the journey as quickly as I can. There does seem to be a re-occuring theme for me and that is this......It is so simple that no one will want to pay me for it once they see how it works. In one of my early trials from Das Triumphant, I came so very close to a continuous movement that I have to come back to that test again. The simplicity of its movement and the overall feel was just felt right, but I was not able to see the other side. I believe now that first attempt was very very close, and by providing a little bit more space for the falling weight to do its work, the goal can be achieved. We are always hopeful that this is the one, and the death of hydrocarbons will finally be on the horizon

New progress in another attempt is alway exciting. Each time I start.........I feel that I am only one mechanism away from success. ONE........Bessler's wheels kept getting wider and larger in diameter with each new and endeavor. The larger in diameter is so easy to see...........that the moment arm is much greater for the weight to do work, but the wider is a real puzzler. The speculation about the width could come in the mechanism. I am now convinced that the shape of the wheel he displayed had nothing to do with the mechanism itself. The covering was just that...............a covering with a light framework of wood and cloth to hide the mechanisms.

The wheel could have been in segments. That the mechanism could not reach its full potential with 8 of them on a single segment so..........the wheel was made wide enough for 2 segments or more. They were judged to be about four pounds each, and their shape was definitely cylindrical. If the weight that he had in a handkerchief and let someone hold was a cylinder about 4 inches in length and the weight about 4 pounds.........as described, then take the width of the wheel at that time.......... the weights in the then a little extrapolation will bring you a weight of 1.75 inches in diameter and 4 inches in length in Steel.............if he used lead it would be slightly different. The largest wheel was 18 inches in width and 12 ft in diameter, but the weights were only 4 inches in length ????? Then the rest of the wheel could have been to hide the mechanisms to hold and drop the weights at the appropriate time. Timing is everything in this effort.

The Horse before the Cart

The proper statement is the Horse before the Cart

November 15, 2009

I have made many modifications to my orginal design , and then John posts.........Put the cart before the horse. I believe the horse is the work done by a falling weight... Make sure that this event occurs before the work requirement... Timing is everything here, and I just simply cannot get the natural events to occur at the proper time. My biggest complaint is this..........If I set all my weights and devices to not move at all......... not to move at all... My wheel will spin over 60 turns with an original speed of 1 revolution per second. 5 ft wheel If Bessler found the answer where everyone else had looked... then what we need is so subtle that is does not require any energy........it appears that any movement to the contrary requires energy drained from the system. Any movement requires some energy........That all of my wonderful mechanisms, that I have so clearly and carefully, thought out have not added one Revolution to the wheel, not one. Do nothing that requires energy is my command at this point and keep the movement

November 11, 2009 Bessler Gravity Motor

Bessler, must have had, at his core an incurable curiosity with devices. If, as written, he made pocket watches by hand. I cannot even imagine the complexity of doing that task. If there is someone out there with a pocket watch fabricated by Bessler, I would surely love to have a photo or even better to purchase it for my own amusement. After 3 days of testing every possible way to get my latest wheel to keep turning without success, but OOOO so close. I have come to the conclusion that there is a key in the drawing......... and are ye yet without understanding.... as well as the line about using a spring in the mechanism, but not in the way that you think. a spring and a triggering device, to perfect the timing is my next go. There is so much to gain from finishing and time is running out. The correct wheel, has been placed in the universe of thought and all who are resonating at his frequency will see it......straight from him
