    I'd like to see you elaborate on this. Morpher44, who started this thread, apparently has the same opinion. If you read the whole thread and view his videos you will notice he has done quite a bit of work on separate component testing.

    Others that were active like mlurye were also active and doing testing on specific parts of the device.

    Too bad they are not active on this thread anymore for more than a half year... who knows what they are into now.

    Anyways, look forward to see your response.

    • Correction / schemas

      All,

      I was reading the 140 pages thick Hendershot Mystery PDF, and I noticed at page 56 that the author mentioned that (W) means Wire. In my opinion that should be Wrench, not Wire, as it is clear from the drawing that it is a wrench that moves the magnet closer to, or further away from the coils.
      Anyone shares my opinion?

      The document is very complete but I am working on the simplification of all the different schema versions (based on Fuchs work) that are redrawn by the author using the same difficult to read schemas to compare. Will publish some comments on this in the near future.

      • I've tried to get a copy of the 2 PDFs, Hendershot Mystery PDF & Hendershot Motor Mystery PDF and no such luck.

        Any idea where I can get them from? The only material I'm using is from Rexresearch.com.

        pjotterkjen, is there some way to download this thread for printing and reading offline?

        I've tried to get hold of some 5" stainless tube, you have no idea how hard it is to come buy, may have to get some rolled and welded.

          Check this URL for the PDFs:
          Research - Lester J. Hendershot - hyiq.org

          Viewing this thread offline, no idea. I have read all 22 pages, and it was worth the trouble, but none of the main posters have reported any substantial progress, still there are interesting links and interesting experiments.

          I'm not yet doing any replication other than reviewing everything I can find on the subject and analyze all different electrical schemes. I'm currently looking at the schema Ed Skilling drwaed up in 1958 and this was published in 1962. Also the Aho schema looks interesting enough. But yeah I can imagine stainless tubes of exactly the needed diameter must be very difficult. You could buy one bigger sized and cut out some to make it smaller diameter.

          • Progress

            Yes I'm keen for any updates
            For a thread that was so active It died very quickly
            I wonder if Morpher44 had a visit from the nastie people?

            • Metal tube material

              Hi folks,

              Just finished buildind the base plate for this device using MDF and 3mm wooden sticks, having drilled all 2x 57 holes as per H's design. Now waiting fo the copper wire to arrive.

              Will post some pics shortly.

              Questions:
              Now the next questions is, has it been agreed what material was used to make the metal cylinders?
              If it's Ali, then it's paramagnetic, if Iron , then magnetic. Both would have very different result from each other.

              Also, if anyone has made a working design, with proof, is the placement of the transformers in the coils important, as all of H's designs in photos appear with that config.



              Morpher44 had done some interesting work using a C magnet 2 compasses and a single coils of some sort. Check youtube for "Hendershot's Compass Discovery Replication" Has anyone got the specs of the coil Morpher44 used?

              Perhaps if the point of rotation of the compasses were designed at the center of the coils then the device would startup. One simple method I think would be to get a bar magnet rotating in the center of the coils to see what effect it would have.

              • Material cylinder, transformers

                Questions:
                Now the next questions is, has it been agreed what material was used to make the metal cylinders?
                If it's Ali, then it's paramagnetic, if Iron , then magnetic. Both would have very different result from each other.
                Not in this thread. According to what I've read, the cylinders must be of stainless steel (.032 thick according to Ed Skilling), and before using these Hendershot used commercial coffee cans most likely made of carbon steel (which he dropped later on because of the (dried) electrolyte chemical reaction with the metal which slowly destroyed its properties).
                Aluminium is mentioned only once somewhere in a note and I guess that should not be used, but it could be tested afterwards in a working device, to compare.
                I think when reading the documents written by Arthur Aho in '68 and '79, both of which are trying to explain what is exactly happening in devices like the Hendershot one, is that both 'capcoils' are to be fine-tuned and conditioned once testing begins. This is an all-in process and one that takes time.
                So if the material of the cylinder is magnetic, then this magnetism together with the capacitance will develop to a certain degree, automatically, while testing or better said while starting/conditioning the device components.

                Also, if anyone has made a working design, with proof, is the placement of the transformers in the coils important, as all of H's designs in photos appear with that config.
                AFAIK, no proof of any success has been reported yet. At least not in this thread. I do not have a device built yet but I do not think it really matters having the transformers inside the cylinders, other than to save space. It does influence the overall resonance frequency of course, but when fine-tuned and conditioned, then it really doesn't matter anymore. There is actually a photo where the transformers are outside the cylinders. But yeah most of them show the transformers inside and it may well benefit the overall performance once in action.

                • Reading up on other Hendershot thread...

                  Hi all,

                  I just found out that here on the same (energetic) forum there's another thread on the Hendershot devices (http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...generator.html)

                  There is some interesting facts to know about the family Hendershot if the information (mentioned on that thread by member GSM) is true.
                  Mark Hendershot, son of Lester Jennings, wrote a comment on this website about Clara Bow (http://www.clarabow.net/articles/ourreaderswrite.html), and states there he was at the time of writing (5/26/2000) 48 years old ("That was a long time before I was born as I am only 48 now."). He also mentions the year his father was born, 1897 ("I don't know much more about them except what I told you as my father was born in 1897").

                  So calculating the year when Mark was born that must have been 1952, and at that time his father must have been 55 years old!

                  So today, 2013, if Mark wrote that comment on that date, he must now be 61 years old. I just wonder if he still is working on his father latest device (the Generator or elsewhere denoted Mark III).

                  What I don't understand is that Mark himself in his document "From the archives of Lester J. Hendershot" shows a picture of his father with one of his sons during WWII (1940-1945)... must be one of his older brothers that's for sure.

                  I would really like to know if he (Mark) is still hoping to see his father's latest device work again and therefore still working on it... if so then I'd like very much to get in touch with him so we are able to join forces with the rest of interested and qualified technicians on this planet that have both the time and equipment to bring this project forward to where Hendershot was when he and Arthur Aho and Ed Skilling were testing and documenting the device (1958-1961).

                  In the meantime I'll be reading up more on the other Hendershot thread...

                    It looks like I have to correct myself. From the document that Mark published I just saw a picture of his father's grave stone (on page 30) that says Lester was born June 3, 1898, so Lester was 54 years old when Mark was born.

                    • Other thread on Hendershot

                      I just read up completely the other thread on Hendershot, which has some interesting talk:

                      http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...generator.html

                      Although I expected more actually... until now nobody built and published his or her device. Most talk is just speculations, not bad of course, but building and testing/tuning and publishing results, while keeping close to the original designs, is of critical importance.

                      One poster on the other thread is mikec_ut which posted a couple of pictures from his replication of the MK1 device. But he doesn't seem to be willing to even publish specification about his build so far.

                      As things are going now, we'll hardly be able to move forward if everybody thinks and does his or her own investigations without actually fully exposing them.

                      That said, I must admit I still have to start gathering materials for my first build, and at this moment I'm inclined to start with the MK1 (the one that works only north - south) which seems to be the one that is the easiest to fine-tune.

                        Mikec_ut just released a document with specifications of components he calculated based on a photo of the airplane toy (with a free energy device built in, most likely the MK1 or even the MK2 version).

                            • Here is your German to English translation mluyre. You will have to add the pics in between.

                              __________________________________________________ ______________

                              Generator built after defaults of Lester Hendershot by kind Aho. To to have brought according to the momentary owner with start-up by Lester Hendershot bulb is to shine for 60 Watts.

                              This version will be known from the Internet you safely:


                              In the footer of the brochure lying in the background in my opinion „By Arthur C. Aho stands “.



                              Here one sees the Buzzer.
                              Both electromagnets are removed plexiglass from a bell or the like and with the metal strip to that both electromagnets fastened are fastened and with the spindle to the magnet/metal strip adjustable, (at the side where also the connection contacts are), to the piece.

                              One can see that in the last picture in this document also once again. The d.c. resistance of both coils in series amounts to 6 ohms. The magnet is 5 inch wide, 1.5 duty deeply, and 1-inch-high. The metal strip is also 5 inch wide and 1-inch-high. The external dimensions the electromagnets are: 2,5 duty lengthens with 1 inch diameter. The diameter of the copper enamelled wire is approx. 0,51mm thus approx. AWG 24.

                              From a report of Skilling I have experienced that the Buzzer the inner feelings one increase built headphones of loudspeaker explain. I can reconstruct this not completely with a magnetic loudspeaker (see sketch), which comes in my opinion this arrangement next lasts the coils wound on the iron staffs connected with the magnetic poles.

                              Magnetic loudspeaker MA = magnet, S = coils, ME = iron diaphragm


                              Further Skilling indicates, Hendershot would have used headphones with its early attempts and if he had heard a grating noise „Scratching sound “were this the indication the fact that the generator now operated and could deliver achievement. Run the development and achievement increase of the generator these „headphone loudspeaker “more largely one dimensioned and a component of the generator.


                              This is „links “PCU. had myself otherwise always surprised which this TEST „point “to be am. With this detail photo and the diagram (see below) it becomes clear.


                              The coil, which is flat over the lowest section of the cart coil wound, is attached here to the two „+ contacts “of the former TM58 duo – Elko's „“.


                              Opinion of the Trafos/transducer in „“PCU links Concerns here American 110V on 6,3V Netztrafo. The metal rings of the PCU's used with this version are from coldly rolled soft iron and are thus magnetic. They are several times spot welded at the seam/overlap place. The inside diameter of the metal rings is 5.25 duty, with a height of 2,75 duty.


                              This is the cart coil „of the right “PCU. The former mass pin of the TM58 duo Elko's is led out also here. It was pressed to the test directly to the connection contact of the lamp holder. I drew it in the diagram broken.

                              Back opinion of the generator.


                              From these photos I could draw the following diagram:


                              The circuit reminds me quite of the diagrams published by Skilling and O'Brian. However the representation of the handwound condensers is new in the PCU's. the mass - foils us - connections of the former Pyramids TM58 duo Elkos has I with drawn in there it in this circuit with to be used. \n\nAll unmodified condensers have a capacity of 40µF with 110Volt AC

                              • Hendershot Generator

                                Hendershot Generator:
                                Apologise for not returning but have been busy with the Generator and now have what I could call a fairly accurate replication.
                                Completed the home-made Condensers without problems and now have several that are able to be tuned exactly to the 6800pF by wooden paddle pop sticks as pressure tuners.
                                I used Aluminium sheet for my Condenser form and this has worked well - is simply taped together and butt jointed but making good contact.

                                The unfortunate ending here is that I have been unable to get the device to flip-flop and have been looking at optional means to use as the 'Resonator'.
                                Tried the multivibrators as earlier described and several other pulse means but none were able to light Leds, that I had placed on each of the capacitors, in a pulsing manner
                                Have a Tuning Fork resonator here that I am looking at using but needs to be frequency reduced.
                                What I do now is put the baseboard to one side and return to it when new insights are developed which takes time.

                                There is something happening here at the 'Resonator' which is the heart of this Generator and this is what we need to investigate - it appears to begin oscillating by itself when the magnetic attraction is just so and looks to be modulating in sympathy with the Aether/Cosmos and this is what we need to connect to.
                                Lester seems to be using the East/West Magnetic Field and we know little of this and how it works.
                                His first Motor needs to be studied very closely as he is using the same resonator there but documentation is scarce and is also using Variometers,
                                variable coils within coils that early vintage Radio used.

                                The Bloch Wall of a Magnet is a mystery but could be the area that is required to be used in this device.
                                If you think about the organisation of a Magnet, the centre or Bloch Wall is the East/West field area and we know again very little of this 'Wall' as that is exactly what it is - you can try this with a very small weak axial Neo Magnet on a larger block Ferrite and just see how powerful this 'Wall' really is.
                                How do you make an East/West Magnet as against a North/South?
                                Four Poles, why don't we use the other two?
                                I had set up a field of Magnets as in the picture below hoping that they would continue to oscillate due to outside influence or 'noise' but not the case as they eventually, over some minutes, will stop.

                                I have Magnets here with the same face polarity stuck together and there appears to be a connecting field invloved that allows this to happen.
                                I will come back to this when I have more information.

                                These are the Multivibrators that I have been using as a Resonator option - mid-rear is the Split-reed where the high voltages were observed and the other is a Synchronous using an original transformer which are like hen's teeth to obtain.
                                The Crystal Set was for a Moray 'front-end' but was most disappointing and a new one is being built.
                                This was also inteded as a 'noise' modulator for the 'resonator' but again, disappointing.
                                Bottom left is the replication of a Hendershot Resonator as used in his Motor - consists of a Ferrite Magnet on the bottom, a thin brass base with a broken coping saw blade soldered to it as the 'resonator', an old power drill stator core which is packed with a coil and two Ferrite Magnets on top.
                                I used this as a 'resonator' option on the Generator but did not cause oscillation - the device itself worked well with the saw blade oscillating at the 50 hertz which could be adjusted by manipulating the Brass diaphragm.
                                You can just see the saw blade tip at the top of the Magnets.
                                This is pulsed from a Signal Generator through the inside coil at 50/60 hertz.
                                Good luck with your research and builds.
