Cloxxki, the whole purpose for this onepiece setup is that it has no gaps and thus almost no resistance for the magnetic flux flow. Channeling info suggests that the better and bigger the contact area is, the stronger the effect will be. So this will prove if this is indeed true.
Harvey, this is some regular steel, not mild steel, it wont retain much magnetism, so it might be that precharging the V shapes using a custom PMH wont give a desired effect. So I thought that maybe adding little neo magnets between each V shape would do the same, like in the attachment. The flux will rather travel through the magnets than through the steel ark closer to the center. This way I can get the magnetic poles on the V shapes just like Ed has on his generator. Also I have seen that magnetized PMH flux also likes to travel through magnets, you can put a magnet close to a magnetized PMH and then break the lock by pulling one side of the steel bar off the U shape and sending flux through the magnet, then you can put the steel bar on its previous position and remove the magnet and the lock will still be there
