<P>Now for how those forces are created, Two examples
<P>Example 1.
<P><TT>fixed width font:</TT>
<BR><TT>

<BR><TT>A I</TT>
<BR><TT> I
^upwards motion of disk</TT>
<BR><TT> I</TT>
<BR><TT> v---I---^ axis</TT>
<BR><TT> I</TT>
<BR><TT> *</TT>
<BR><TT> I</TT>
<BR>
<BR>
<P><TT>B I</TT>
<BR><TT> I ^upwards
motion of disk</TT>
<BR><TT> I</TT>
<BR><TT> v---*---^ axis</TT>
<BR><TT> I</TT>
<BR><TT>
I</TT>
<BR><TT>
I</TT>
<BR>
<P><TT>C I
^upwards motion of disk</TT>
<BR><TT> *</TT>
<BR><TT> I
-^</TT>
<BR><TT> --I-- axis</TT>
<BR><TT> v- I</TT>
<BR><TT>
I</TT>
<BR><TT>
I</TT>
<P>Legend * = point on disk
I= disk - = axis of primary rotation
^ = direction of motion or force is upwards v =
direction of motion or force downwards
<P>As the point on the disk that we are tracking moves upwards the second
axis of rotation (clockwise) causes the point to make a turn, so there
is an inertial \ centrifugal force to the right.
<P><TT>
fig.2</TT>
<BR><TT>
*</TT>
<BR><TT>

<BR><TT>
* ^</TT>
<BR><TT>
*</TT>
<BR><TT>
*</TT>
<BR>path of point over time
<P>This happens on both sides of the disk pushing the top half to the right
and the bottom to the left, this creates a third rotational axis (unless
forced), this axis aligns the second axis of rotation with the first until
they are perfectly in line.
<P>Example 2.<TT></TT>
<P><TT>
fig.3</TT>
<BR><TT> <
l <</TT>
<BR><TT> III l

<BR><TT> I I l

<BR><TT> I I

<BR><TT>vI o I^==============o I ^</TT>

<BR><TT>
/ \</TT>
<BR><TT> /
\first axis</TT>
<BR><TT> second axis</TT>
<BR><TT> anti-clockwise
as seen from above</TT>
<P>this works by unbalancing the centrifugal force of the second axis by
that of the first, the tangential velocity of the disk to the left is greater
on the bottom as the primary rotation of the disk adds to the tangential
velocity on the bottom but subtracts from the top half, on the right disk
the force is greater on the top as the motion adds to the tangential velocity
of the second axis and hence unbalances the centrifugal force, this creates
a toque that if not forced to precess will create a nutation which will
persist until there is only rotation.

<P> Anybody can shed more light into the nature of gyros
? URL's, text

<P> Also, a note that in airplanes gyros are used as
compasses meaning that

has said,
<BR>maybe someone can tie gyros with the aether !!!</BLOCKQUOTE>

Well... looking in the web I came accross this site :
move down and look where it says "New Effort" "Thomas L. Navarro" and
read that bit and look at the picture. These bast@&#$ have invented it
already !!! After seeing the picture, one feels very demoralized to make
one :(
also I found these, Interesting notes on historical cases of weight loss
effects using gyros:
