I think I figured it out!
You all know how a Tibetan singing bowl works? A traveling wave is forced around the outside of a circle, and at just the right speed, it will create a standing wave at the center!
I think Leedskalnin's generator is a magnetic analogy to a Tibetan singing bowl!
So I think that he held a piece of iron next to it when he spun it, and he built up a standing wave in the center, just like a singing bowl. A MAGNETIC STANDING WAVE. The iron piece outside is the stick dragged around the edge of the bowl in the analogy. Either that, or the frequency created by the intervals of attraction between the magnetic fields of the thing and the iron is set to the resonant frequency of what he was levitating by turning it faster or slower. That's why he said when you find the stone you want to move, put some sand on it and sing until you hit the note that makes the sand dance! Or it's a combination of both, where the configuration automatically creates a magnetic standing wave, but the turning of it with an outside pulsation modulates the standing wave!
Then an iron wire/chain/whatever is suspended in the center and receives the standing wave/pulses, and that's connected to the copper wire wrapped around the thing to be levitated!
