"RICK'S PIPE DREAM" Magnetic Motor-Generator

Reply to Mark:

Rick I was wondering if you ever heard back from that magnet company on the curved magnets yet.

Hi Mark,

Yes, a company representative contacted me and said that they do not have any of those or similar magnets in stock at this time. They said they would review my drawing and e-mail me a cost quote to manufacture it. That was a couple of weeks ago, but I haven't heard any more. Now I'm wondering if perhaps they are putting me off. Here's why I'm wondering that:

About the same time that I posted the info about the bonded neo magnets in the "C" shape, which were axially magnetized, I also sent a note about that to Sterling Allan. In my note, I said that I'd like him to know about the possibility of obtaining these magnets, but that it would be better if no one else knew about the company just yet because it might result in the company being bombarded by requests. I think perhaps that Sterling didn't have time to fully read my message at that moment, because he ended up posting it on the Peswiki site. Now if many people did in fact contact the company, and request info and quotes for that particular style of magnet, it would tip them off that something is definitely going on. When I sent my info request, I didn't mention anything about Howard Johnson, as I didn't want my request to get the red flag treatment, but it's quite possible that someone has "spilled the beans" as to what this is all about.

For those of you who aren't quite certain of what we are talking about,
here's a photo showing the manufacturers catalog page which clearly features the "C" magnet in question:

Now compare the above magnet with the profile of the stator magnet suggested by Howard Johnson in his patent:



Not exactly right, but close when viewed from the side. The above drawing is what I sent to the manufacturer with my request, but I deleted the "Howard Johnson" reference before sending it. Now it is strange to me that they feature this magnet prominently in their catalog, and yet claim that they don't have any such magnets, and are taking so long to get back to me with a quote, and that's why I think they are simply avoiding a response. I guess we'll see. I'll fire another request off to them next week if I still haven't heard anything. The least they could do is send me a ridiculously high quote just to turn me off to the idea of obtaining some of these! And that's probably what they will do if I keep hounding them. Anyways, it would be nice to have these to experiment with, and I really feel they are needed if one were to succeed at a good Johnson build, but they aren't absolutely necessary for the direction that I am headed in.


Best regards,

Rick

Hi Rick, Great job!!

I would expect that there will be many replications, and many posts because of you're good works here. This leads me to a ?, while following along in the Lloyds friction boiler thread I found myself looking back many times to early posts to find info, (so much). I Know that I as well as many others ended up posting to ask you a question only to find that you had already addressed it early on in the thread. Is there any way of creating a expandable table of contents for a thread? I'm thinking this might help you save time so as to free it up for experimentation. Just a thought.

Best regards to you and yours,

Gene

P.S. don't forget the tripod

Hi Gene,

It's good to see you in here. I will be making up a pdf document containing all the pertinent info in this thread, and will have a table of contents and parts list with that. For the moment I'm just racing ahead to get all this info posted, and hoping that others will follow right along in the step-by-step guides. I do have my tripod in hand now, and will be making the first video tomorrow.

Best wishes to you, gene.

Hi Rick

Seems to me like they may be missing out on a huge market. I have a few of those curved magnets that I get out of burned up automotive blower motors but there not magnetized correctly. Do you rerally think it would cause problems if someone started to manufacture the magnets we need? Maybe we could use these blower motor magnets and have a bunch of them remagnetized.

Hi Mark,

You're right - it would create a wide open market for them, but it could also bring down a lot of grief upon the manufacturer. Let's suppose, for example, that the suppressionists would do just about anything to keep these magnets from being made available. Perhaps they would pay the manufacturer a visit and make it very clear to them that selling these magnets will result in consequences that may force the company out of business. The suppressionists would make it quite clear to the manufacturer that they do have the muscle and the authority to quickly bring the company's operation to a grinding halt. Now what would you do if you were the manufacturer? See how this works?

I'd probably end up shot or dead, because I'd go public in a big way. Maybe I'll look into a magnetizer and go into business!

Mylow has put up some new instructional videos and has another working model with only 6 rotor magnets, here is the link to part 5.

Progress update

Hi folks,

Just a few lines to keep you updated as to what is currently happening. I have returned home from my cottage with video camera in hand, and today I have been taping quite a bit of video that shows various operational modes that work to achieve rotational movement. I figured it would be best to shoot a bunch of video in one stretch, which I can then break into several 8 or 10 minute segments. I still have some more shooting to do while I'm still set up for it, and then will begin the segment editing process. I probably wont get far enough along in the process to be able to post any video before midnight, but I will keep working on it and will hope to have something available before the night is over.

In other news, I have purchased a new bike wheel for future experiments. It is a 26 inch rear wheel, with heavy duty bearings and a 3/8" axle. The wheel was only $25 at the bike store, which isn't bad. I figured that my rusty and bent wheel has proved its worth, and helped me to prove out my Moving Stator concept quite well, but the bearings are really bad and would only serve to degrade the performance that could be realized when using a new wheel. I'll be mounting my rear wheel with a sprocket attached, and this isn't going to be used to drive anything. Instead, the sprocket will be held stationary to the wheel mounting plate by a bolt positioned between 2 teeth of the sprocket. The advantage of using the sprocket this way is that the wheel can only turn in one direction since the sprocket will provide a ratchet effect. I am also going to rig up a pull rod that will positioned through a frame attachment and inserted through the valve stem hole in the wheel rim. When I pull the rod straight out of engagement, the wheel will be free to rotate. The idea of this is to show that the wheel is not being started by any hand motion, and that it starts up on its own when the rod is pulled away.

I have also received some additional materials that I will be using for my build. I have some strips of plastic that I will be cutting into wedges that will be inserted in the spaces between my bar magnets. The plastic is the same thickness as the height of my double magnet stacks, which is 1/4 inch. This will keep the magnets locked into proper angular alignment. Above the magnets and plastic spacers, I will be adding a ring of 1/4 inch thick clear lexan, which will be fastened to the rim by stainless steel screws that will also pass through the plastic spacers. This will prevent the possibility of any rotor magnets being pulled away from the wheel rim by the strong attraction force of the stator magnet. Further, I will be adding a ring of 3/4" birch plywood to the opposite side of the rim for flywheel effect. With all of this done, I will proceed to the final step of building my tracking system, which will automatically position my stator magnet to maximum advantage at every critical point during rotation. The track itself will be a monorail positioned on the lexan ring, at its outer edge, and will slowly wind inward and outward in a precise manner to offer perfect timing. A small wheel, or wheels, will be mounted horizontally to rotate against the side or sides of the track to "ride" and folow it precisely. The wheel axle, or axles, will be posts that connect to the stator mounting board, and the board will either be mounted on a slider mechanism or on a pivot set in bearings. The board is then either moved in a straight line, or pivoted in an arc, across the wheel rim, and this causes the stator magnet to follow the timing track in unison. There is no question in my mind about whether or not this tracking system will work. The only question to be answered is whether or not the magnetic motor can supply a sufficient amount of force to continuously oscillate the stator magnet back and forth across the wheel rim while maintaining adequate rpm of the rotor. I can't guarantee that will be the case until I have actually done it, but I do believe that it is more than just possible. To me, a positive outcome is highly probable, and I hope to be able to demonstrate that very soon.

Best regards to all,

Rick

Thanks Rick.

Now guys like You, Rick Fredrick and john Bedini are doing reps and progress, you all are well known guys we can trust and know what your doing
so this approach over all is going to be more effective in reps and understanding. Thx again for a lot for the PREFECT lay out my friend .

Here is a post from J Bedini on another forum that probably should be taken to heart. There is a lesson here that should not go un-noticed. At the end of the post is permission to publish.

Good Job Rick!

[tjnlsn255]

All I can say is WOW, Rick.....

I am really looking forward to the MOSTAT videos.....

This thing will be so much fun when its built..... my mind is racing over all the potential projects that can be done with this machine......

Is free energy green?

Good Job Rick!

Thanks, Mark. I have noticed some problems in uploading videos to YouTube. First, the upload time - it takes about 30 to 40 minutes to upload an 8 minute video, even though I have a fast connection that could download the same 400 to 500 MB file very quickly. Secondly, I notice that the tail end of some of my videos appear cut off in mid speech, though this was not the case in my recordings and edits. And that's not because I went over the 10 minute time or 1GB size limits, as I did not. My third video YouTube - "Rick's Pipe Dream" Magnetic Motor - Generator, Video #3 has about 3 seconds missing at the end. But knowing this, I can adjust future videos accordingly to avoid that.

Hi Tj,

Thanks, I'm glad you are enjoying everything so far. See post #77 above for a link to video #3, which shows two of the several possible MOSTAT (voving stator) configurations. And yes, there are so many ways that this apparatus can be utilized. So far, I am only using one side of the wheel, and a single stator. The other side could be utilized to double the output power, or to perform entirely different experiments that could either assist the current operation or work on their own principles. Have you started your built yet? Don't delay -start today!

Video update

Hi folks,

I am currently uploading video #4, which shows how I am setting the magnets up for my preferred rotor configuration. It also shows a compass rotating as the magnet groups pass by it, as well as the magnetization of the hard drive magnet.

Video 4 should be available shortly as it is currently about 80% uploaded.

Best to all,

Rick

Another Video update

Video #4 is now up: YouTube - "Rick's Pipe Dream" Magnetic Motor - Generator, Video # 4

Video #5 is currently uploading and about 60% complete. Videos 4 and 5 demonstrate the methods I will be using in my self-runner enhancements. Video #4 shows the magnet placements on the rotor, while video #5 demonstrates how the MOSTAT (moving stator) magnet is most effectively utilized. When you see this in operation, note how quickly and forcefully the rotor begins turning and accellerating. That's because it uses both attraction and repulsion forces when most advantageous, at the most critical points, and in perfect timing. As long as timing can be maintained perfectly, the rotor will continue to accellerate up to maximum potential. I'm not certain yet how fast that will be, but it will be fast.

Best to all,

Rick
