Subject: Hamel Spinner
Hi Jerry,
I tried the Bedini type Hamel disk spinner. Unfortunately, we don't get inch
measured magnets in Switzerland, only millimeters.
So I used the following arrangement: Big ring magnet: 21 magnets 24mm x 13mm,
which gives an inner circle diameter of 93mm and a ring thickness of 24mm.
Small ring magnet: 50.8 mm outer diameter, 24mm inner diameter, 9 mm thick.
Steel ball 26 mm diameter.
This makes almost the same configuration as Bedini's.
My experiments are NEGATIVE, unfortunately, and I think because of the
following reasons:
As you said in one of your last mails, you tried it, too, and you noticed that
it did not spin too long because the small ring magnet left the big ring
magnet's area. Well, I think that the ring magnet spins only BECAUSE it moves.
If my experiments are right, the ring magnet spins only, if you tilt the big
ring magnet a bit. This gives the small magnet a little push, which is
transformed into an angular momentum causing it to spin (but also move away!).
If I really don't move my big ring magnet, the small magnet will stop spinning
and stabilise in a position sooner or later.
Now I have one or two questions to all who duplicated this experiment
positively: (By the way, I haven't checked Bedini's last experiment with the
neodymium magnets)
Have you made sure that the small ring magnet did spin, only, and not move in
the same time?
Have you made sure that you did not follow the small ring magnet instinctively
as it tried to move away?
Try to fix the small ring magnet on a shaft and also fix the big ring magnet.
Does it still spin ?
If it really spins like a perpetuum mobile, it should spin hour for hour for
hour ... Was this the case?
Hoping I am wrong and I just did a silly mistake in my experiment.
Greetings. Daniel Geisenhoff.

Jean-Louis et al
Based on my experience it is only a pivot point.
> And what do you think of the importance of steel ball ? Is it only for
reducing friction or for changing the shape of the magnetic field ?
On hand were a couple of ring magnets about 70x45x5mm (ODxIDxthickness)
salvaged from automotive oil filters. No steel ball large enough so I hot
glued one to a billiard ball.
It works after a fashion, the second magnet above, tilted and slightly offset
axially... poles arranged so the magnets attract, not repel.
Performance was improved after substituting a 60x32x8mm magnet and suitable
steel ball for the spinning component. However I find a need for a
destablizing condition to make it spin at speed... moving the top magnet
steadily away from myself works well.
Which brings to mind the beauty of the Searl method ie the imposition of a
secondary offset magnetic field, if only I understood it better. John Bedini's
latest is becoming reminiscence of the SEG ie Searl Effect Generator.
Cheers... Rex
ps. I've been lurking awhile... pleased to meet you. 8-)

Subject: Hamel Spinning disc test feedback
Hi Jerry,
I have built the first test model of Hamel spinner disc today, I use 8 ferrite
magnets 25x5x40 mm magnetic poles inward mounted in 10 cm PVC cylinder. For
the spinning device I use my Levitron on glass sheet ( it is a very
frictionless 28 mm ring magnet mounted as a spinning top ).
The "magnetic gate" is put 50 mm above the glass sheet with a FIXED apparatus.
The Levitron device is spinning for about 6 mn align on magnetic gate axis.
You can notice that as Levitron device is floating normally in the air at 40
mm above the Levitron magnet platform for 2 mn 30. The Levitron device has a
weight of 22 gr. The levitating time is less than on Hamel configuration
because the precession momentum needed to maintain the stability of Levitron
in magnetic levitation is not use in this case......This was the first test, I
have attached a color picture of my first test.
Do you think that the use of steel ball have a magnetic importance ? or is it
just for reducting friction ?
The second test planned will be with a ring magnet and a steel ball.....stay
tuned.

Dear Jean
I have verified that the mechanical force on one side of the gate is stronger.
HOWEVER !!! I have also noticed that the mechanical force on the "weak' side
of the gate reaches further out than the force on the "strong" side.
This is similar to discharging an electrical capacitor; 10 Amps for 1 second
VS. 1 Amp for 10 seconds. In both cases the discharged energy is the same.
Could you please verify that the DISTANCE of attraction/repulsion on either
side of the gate is DIFFERENT.
The total energy on one side of the magnetic gate EQUALS the integrated force
VS. distance !!!
In your opinion, is this "distance" difference offsetting the "force"
difference ?

Hi John,
Thank's for your helpful informations. I have experimented your magnetic gate
IT'S WORK AS YOU SAID !!!!, Wonderfull, I think that you are in a good way !!!
I have put a 6 cm cylinder magnet in the axis of my magnetic gate (10cm
diameter build with 10 ferrite magnets pole inward ) and it is pulled through
inside the gate with a thrust GREATER THAN the force needed to pull inside.
I begin to understand the Hamel butterfly magnet now. Ok, for the magnetic
Wankel motor, I am studying more Bearden theories about magnetic regauging.
After my first experiment with yout magnetic gate, I am convinced now that
it's possible to build a permanent magnetic motor. I have put the complete
test report of this first magnetic gate on my web server....You can distribute

I work now, on the second version more improved of your device, stay tuned...
I look forward to receive any suggestions or comments about the tests of your

I do not know what the Levitron is, the magnet for the Levitron a solid
Magnet, or is it a gate of some kind ? The Hamel spinner needs the ball to
do what David Hamel said as the small ring Magnet fall's this causes the ring
to rotate on the ball the trick here is to keep the magnet in a butterfly
motion.
You should read His story and then you will understand why I built the
magnetic gate, The gate is very special one way valve it will only let a
cylinder Magnet pass one way and not the other way, Think for a moment about
the Magnetic Wankel and then you will see what I'M up to.
A Permanent Magnet Motor can only be made if the gate cause a spin and then it
must be off center to continue it's rotation, the rotor must move from LOW to
HIGH pressure and then start all over again, so their are some Key factors to
be studied here, We need to do away with the electricity here, NO COIL to fire
the magnet into the gate.
If you have more Questions about this I'm here so far.

Try putting two gates, one behind the other, and see if you get more than 2.85
times. If so, then you should be able to put several of them around a circular
centre tube, sort of like a particle accelerator. Then if it is really OU, the
ferrite rod will keep accelerating 'round and 'round.

From Hal Puthoff - As you approach the magnetic gate with your little train
car or whatever, you are subtly pushing up a magnetic hill without noticing
it. Then when you reach the point at which the gate grabs the object and
flings it across the room in its magnetic downhill run, you cannot help but be
amazed. But put it in a circle and soon it is clear that it won't keep going.
The slow climb up the magnetic hill can't be overcome by the dramatic downhill
slide.
From Jean Naudin - Thanks to you all, for your comments and suggestions about
my experiment, I have tried to put two identical gates, today, the thrust is
maintained constant with a gap of 50 mm between then gates. After "my
OVERUNITY OF ENTHUSIASM" yesterday....it's TIME FOR THINKING NOW...
I think that the Bedini's magnetic gate is acting like a nonlinear gateway for
the magnetic scalar potential energy. The best way of this magnetic gate is
to use this as an energy pump, my objective is not to build a permanent
magnetic motor.
I could notice that the evolution of kinetic energy of cylindrical magnet
through magnetic gate have relaxation waveform. I work on QuickField
simulation to tune finely the magnetic gate device and optimize the
efficiency.
It's like a Tantale tank, the 50 mm gap must be adjust to maintain the
relaxation without additional energy. I think that it is possible to tap free
magnetic energy in non linearity zone (just after the magnetic gate), where
the magnetic flux begin to change (just after the top of hill).
The magnetic gate must act as Magnetic Energy Pump IF the speed of the
magnetic probe accelerate more than the normal run out speed. I experiment
this concept in my lab's with the dynamic magnetic compression process.
We can obtain the same result dynamicaly with the magnetic gate, to obtain
this time compression, we need to inject little energy in the circuit, with a
coil for instance, but after regauging, I think that we should collect more
energy than the input. I work on this, stay tuned......
It's only theory, today......
As said Bob Shannon some days ago "In theory, there is no differance between
theory and practice, but in practice, there is."
I look forward to receive your comments and share the knowledge about this
subject.

Thought some of you might be interested in a simple experiment which seems to
be leading to something useful. It is based on David Hamels' claims of having
built a flying disc (the poor man's Searl) which took off into space, much
like Searl's is claimed to have done. Details at;
http://www.keelynet.com/hamindex.htm
It looks somewhat like an inverted Levitron. Levitron is a spinning ring
magnet over a larger non-spinning ring magnet. There is a moving image right
now of the Levitron on Art Bell's home page.
The Levitron exhibits "stable" levitatation within a region of space, but
bounces around quite a bit within the region. When it gets near an edge of the
stable space, it is somehow pushed back in toward the center.
Assuming Hamlin's device works, I doubt if it is O/U. But it is pretty weird.
In Hamlin's device the larger magnetic ring is held manually over the spinning
ring.
Mabye you have to hold it at exactly at the right height to keep the spinning
ring upright and centered, just like the Levitron is constantly "adjusting"
its height and center position. Possibly in making this "adjustment" manually,
energy is put into the system. Who knows?
And anyhow, where does the torsion come in to cause rotation? It should not
work. But, four or five people now say that it does. One person says that it
works with the upper ring held in a fixed position.
And if this weird little gadget works, does it make Mr Hamlin's other
extraordinary claims seem more credible? Extraordinary is in this case, a
huge understatement. Maybe his flying saucers work too?

I made the spinner as per John Bedini's instructions. It works as shown.
It also works with a 3.5"X.5" speaker magnet, so the donut magnet is not a
critical dimension.
I was hoping it would lead me to a better understanding of Hamel's wobbling
cone machine, but I still don't get it. But the little spinner is fun. My 11
year old son can really get some RPM out of it, makes me look pretty bad, but
oh well.....
Also I made a section of R. Johnson's linear magnetic motor as per his patent

Hi Wesley, Hi all,
I work on this in my Lab's now, and the 3 stages version have an interesting
efficiency: the kinetic energy is conserved (may be even increase (TO BE
VERIFY !!!)) through the 3 gates without cough......
I project to conduct some tests with the magnet probe in free fall condition:
Firstly : testing the magnet probe's free fall without the MG using an
electronic speedometer,
Secondly : through the MG at different level of speed entry.
I think that this is a good method to detect IF (???) it is possible to get
OU with a magnetic scalar potential gate.
I work closely with John Bedini on this subject......stay tuned.... :-)

Rick Monteverde - Honolulu, HI
This is true, Rick, THAT IS THE BIG QUESTION ( O/U or not O/U ? ).....
After the test of the 1 stage Magnetic Gate, I have conduct some experiments:
First test : I would tried to verify if kinetic energy was sufficient to pass
through two gates. It's ok, even if the second gate have the same force field
and same shape.
I have notice in version 2 ( 2 gates ), that the magnetic probe have a jerky
motion between the two gates. The kinetic energy progress in relaxation mode.
The kinetic energy accumulated between the gate during the rush out must be
greater than the kinetic energy needed to enter into the gate. This is
verified with this first experiment.
Second test : I would like to confirm this observation by adding a third gate
(after a need to buy new magnets!, 10 magnets by gate is much for my stock
!!!).
With 3 identicals gates and with 40mm gap between them, I have a jerky motion,
but the probe can pass. I have the feeling that it is not the good way ( is
run like a bad music note ...).
The correct tuning of the Magnetic Gate V3 was found with three differents
shaped gates. 10 magnets for the first, 7 magnets for the second, 6 for the
third with 40 mm gap between them.
I have put a picture of this Magnetic gate V3.0 with its design in my web
server at :
http://members.aol.com/JNaudin509/images/mg3pict.htm
To conclude this two experiments, I think that the most important point is
that the probe must be in constant acceleration speed through a non linear
magnetic field.
This can be done with a long magnet with an air which increase between magnet
probe and Magnetic gate. The potential in the end gap is higher than the
potential at the entrance of magnetic gate. This effect is fully used in
Magnetic Wankel engine for instance, for more details see :
http://www.virtualtimes.com/writers/bearden/mageng/mageng.htm
Some other engines use this main principle (Kawai engine, Adams motor...) but
only on segmented zone.
The magnetic Wankel uses this effect on more than 300o of it course and when
the electomagnet pulse is sent, it can regauge with an O/U effect.
My next test planned : Testing and measuring the kinetic energy during the
free fall of the magnet probe, inside 1, 2 and 3 Magnetic gate. If the probe
really accelerates, this acceleration must be added to the normal
gravitational acceleration, and the result is easy to measure with a
speedmeter or an electronic chronometer. Stay tuned......
I look forward to receive any comments and suggestions which can help me in
this long but fascinating Quest of Overunity.

Hi Herman,
I did the sims. I have verified by actual testing that the external field
increases as shown. The test is simple. Take two magnets and hold them
about 5-6mm apart in an attracting mode.
Now take a small ferrite rod and approach the air gap between the magnets and
note the pull experienced by your fingers.
Now reverse one of the magnets so they are now opposing and again approach the
air gap between the magnets.
You will notice a much larger attractive force in the opposing mode. Now try
varying the air gap and notice that the force of attraction continues to build
as the air gap is decreased.
Really neat, simple demo and it works!

From Geoff Greaves - Isn't this as expected because with attracting poles the
flux flows straight between the poles but with opposing poles it is forced out
of the air-gap where its effect can be felt?
Rather like squeezing a balloon, the harder you squeeze the further out the
balloon reaches. Similarly, the closer the opposing poles the further out the
flux will reach but with no more power, analagous to the unchanged volume of
the balloon.
