Video #1, "Rick's Pipe Dream" Magnetic Motor - Generator Project

This video introduces my design and project build of a magnetic motor - generator. My intention was to construct this apparatus at modest expense, and in such a way that it can be easily replicated by anyone possessing basic skills and a few common household tools. The parts and materials, other than the magnets, can be found locally, and the magnets are commonly stocked items available from sellers on the Internet.

I was expecting to get RickRoll'd

[TheRickoff]

You have no way of knowing what I have or have not done, and the magnet configuration I am using is what I find works best. There is sound reasoning behind everything that I have done, and it has all proven positive so far. The average torque is only zero in your mind, not in my MOSTAT (moving stator) method.

[knowledgemonger]

You didn't however put down just one magnet and make careful measurements with it and then put down a second an make more measurements. Many magnets makes the situation more complex but doesn't solve the underlying problem that the average torque is zero.

[TheRickoff]

That's why I am keeping things simple, and why I have no intention of employing shielding.

[knowledgemonger]

Think of magnetic shielding as adding many more little magnets to direct where the lines of force goes and you will see why adding shielding doesn't help. When you bring poles together and then move them apart again, if you get back to your starting position you always get exactly zero net energy change. Adding more and more stuff just makes it harder to keep track of all of the poles. It doesn't change the basic problem.

A week laer, and Mylow is a self-admitted fraud. Mostats change the story for me though. Opportunities with magnet shielding I am also open to, for static stators.

[TheRickoff]

Look YTA, if you really feel this dissatisfied then why do you keep coming back? This is the way I prefer to demonstrate my techniques, and it is how I will continue. Each time you see the wheel move, even if briefly, that is a demo in itself. Some of my clips do show continued spinning and accelleration, so I don't see why you are complaining. There are many people subscribing to my videos because they do want to learn what I am teaching, and apparently see no problem with how I do that.

Than please demo it first and than explain it. As the old saying goes, don't put the cart before the horse. There is a big difference between so called whining and those who simply want more action and less talk. Yes, explaining things in great detail is fine. But somewhere along the way you need to demo it, regardless whether it works or not. No whining here, rather you're not letting us see it spin without you stopping it time and again... regardless if it works or not.

[TheRickoff]

Keep in mind that I am not here to satisfy the whims of whiners and complainers. I am posting this series in order to make it possible for ANYONE with basic skills and knowledge to build, set up, and operate this device. To that end, my aim is to leave nothing unanswered. Full disclosure, that's my promise.

[TheRickoff]

It took time to develop these ideas, and it takes time to explain them adequately. I don't assume that everyone watching is a magnet guru or mechanical wizard. You will see plenty of demos if you take time to watch the series. Patience is a virtue, so have some, please.
