If you are interested in the 300 year old Orffyreus
(Bessler) wheel which claimed to self run by using gravity
and shifting weights, you might want to check out this new
site;
http://www.cybrtown.com/~mike/
Johann E. E. Bessler ( Orffyreus ) is the only person to
provide overwhelming evidence for the existence of a
mechanical gravity driven power device.
The books and drawings Bessler left behind hold a wealth of
information unfortunately not many people are even aware of
his existence.
Worse yet are the decievers and spin doctors that could make
one doubt their own sanity for even mentioning the words
perpetual motion.
The written testimonies of eye witnesses are only important
if the author can be discredited. Their minds are already
made up and they don't want to be confused with any facts.
Bessler did not have a perpetual motion machine, even though
he thought he did. He built gravity driven devices and two
different kinds at that.
If you already believe in the possibility of, or are just
curious about what many have called perpetual motion read
on. I have based this site primarily on his own drawings and
references directly related to the wheel(s).
There are numerous fascinating quirks in various areas of
the drawings, as well as, possible codes within the text
keys.
