I am here thanks to seeing the (Chet K) OUR post that lists other forums to join as I am unfortunately not a member of that site. I was a member of the (overunity) site working in TinMan's thread to replicate his motor when the site was sadly shut down. So I am again thrilled to see his efforts revived. Jim Mac ain't no dummy so I just hope he doesn't get close enough to the answer that is scares TinMan away before he can do the reveal he has planned.
@Jim Mac, I'm not seeing much if any cogging in your (The Magnetic gears are turning) video. I would have thought there would be much more visible cogging. Does this method eliminate cogging that would be present if individual magnets were used instead of the field extending bolts?
I am glad to see you here.
I certainly do not want to scare anyone away. I believe the claim is real and am not questioning the legitimacy of it. As I see it, Tinman has been answering some questions, posting video hints, and leaving us a bread trail. I will try not to bother him with my meandering questions, and I won't be an annoyance to him directly.
Now to your question. That design wasn't totally correct. I was building based on Tinman's pictures without any operational clue. The bolts are magnetized, but pretty weak. They do respond to an outside magnet (both attraction and repulsion) but they may not be magnetized enough for bolt to affect bolt.
But now a new outlook popped out of the woodwork. This new outlook uses most the same parts and effects shown in Tinman's videos, but now answers vital operational questions.. For instance, why magnetize bolts instead of just using magnets directly? I built it without quite understanding the point on why or how the machine could self-spin..
I'll drop this hint.. Turns out, the magnetized bolts have a much more important purpose than just creating weak magnetic field. The setup allows you to do something that can't be done with permanent magnets. It attacks the very nexus of how virtually any motor works.
There is a good chance I got it wrong again, so don't take anything I say to the bank. The bench will reveal.
