troy first, love your stuff. the inside sleeve should not spin. the tape will melt and cause resistance. that is why you have bearings. only the bearings should spin.
Thank you.Well, the way I see things, it cant hurt since the inside is not supposed to spin at all. Less friction. The bearings are quite loose and free anyway. I just cant see the harm in it.
I'm still waiting on magnets. I'm using a blocking oscillator (Joule thief) for the circuitry. Still experimenting with different toroid coils. Trim Capacitors (Variable capacitors) and variable resistors have been helpful in tuning the circuit. I'm using an old mountain bike wheel at present. I'm looking for a lighter wheel. All parts have been reclaimed except for the aluminum tape I used to balance the wheel.
Cool. Try to make your first build exactly according to the specs though if you can. The closer the better so we are all tracking on the same page. You can often get the magnets at the dollar store. I found many of them there through the years. The exact same ones 2/$1
Yes, I'm getting ahead of myself :) The magnets came in today (hooray) I have every intention on replicating your build as closely as I am able. I'm really looking forward to this :) Thanks again Troy. On a side note ... Have we had enough rain? lol Peace :) I hope all is well :)
NO!! Not for the first build of a Bedini Simplified School Girl motor. Its not the magnets that do the work. All they are used for is to generate a TINY little bit of current in the trigger coil. Then the power coil repels the magnet further. Stronger magnets will require more current to overcome and reduce net gains in the system.
Hey Troy. I was really into custom building my bike when i was a teenager. You can " True " your wheel pretty easily with a spoke wrench. You need to find where the wobble is This is best don with the wheel in a special wheel truing jig. Of course I never had one of those so I turned bike upside down and set it on handlebars and the seat. I move one side if brake caliper over to see where the out of true part of wheel is because it will rub there. Use your spoke wrench then to tighten the wheel from one sode to pull rim over to center. You also want to lightly loosen the two spokes pulling from opposite side. Go slow and make small adjustments. Or........just take the wheel to a bike shop. Haha. PS Troy. I got my approval email from Steemit a few days ago after waiting a week. But I screwed up. The final part of the account creation process is to clik link in the email and enter the computer generated and VERY LONG!!!!!!! password. I did not write down this long password because I thought it was saved by my browser. When I went to log on finally to steemit it asked for the password. IN their FAQ they say they can not recover a lost PW. However I did find something to clik if i lost my PW. I clicked and i am waiting to hear back from them. I have a feeling if i try to create a new acct they will know I have an existing account because you have to use your email and your phone to verify your identity. I did go and clik on many of your videos from the other alternate site you posted.

I would like to use the lawn mower wheels a lot smaller more compact which is what I like but anyways you can use balance weights the ones they use for car rims the ones they use for the fancy rims you just glue them on they have a back and it has glue on it to me it will be a much more simple solution
Wow! I know I'm not Troy. See Icetecker's comment. I'm U.S. Air Force retired. Troy is not. I live in Indiana. Troy does not. Do I have to go on? Sorry for the distraction folks ... sheesh!
Congratulation you did it keep up doing that so thanks for the detailed thank and I liked your English very well thanks again bro😅
On my next moror i am not having any bearings just holes drilled in wood
I may try this. I like the detail you put into it. Not real fast or leaving things out. Have a great day and hope your knee problem goes away soon.
Thank you. Knee is feeling better. No pain meds for most of the day :)
Nice troy can't wait to see it together and working
I am excited as I build this. Did you get my last email?
You could try drilling on the heavy side too.
Hey, man. great work! I'm very curious and hope to follow your steps ...
Thank you. I have the full series here: www.diytube.video/playlist/5

Oh, and it has been like this for about ten years now :)
I'm all eyes and ears :) Thanks Troy :)
:)
do you have the parts to build one?

This is hilarious . Troy commenting to one of his alts. . Troy talking to Troy . You are a sad man .
Troy how big is the wheel
Any size will do really.
Thanks
Why are we using the weaker ceramic magnets on this build Troy? Can we use neodymium magnets if we choose?
NO!! Not for the first build of a Bedini Simplified School Girl motor.
Its not the magnets that do the work. All they are used for is to generate a TINY little bit of current in the trigger coil. Then the power coil repels the magnet further.
Stronger magnets will require more current to overcome and reduce net gains in the system.
A stronger magnet will induce a larger current, turning on the power transistor longer, using more power from the run battery.
Aluminum produces eddy currents
What about the steel spokes ? They terminate on the inside of the rim near where the magnets are mounted.
Those dont seem to be a problem according to John Bedini.
marvelous
thanks

Thank you for the research. I heard that aluminum helped in some way but never researched it yet. Now I have more to study :)
Too cool 👍🏼

What is radiant energy?
Basically energy that is all around us. The Earth is being bombarded by energy all the time. You can tap into that and use it.
So what is the source of this radiant energy?
I was working oregon duck game but ill look soon as I can
ok

Depending on your wheel weight the car weights could be way too heavy.

He is a bit warped. lol
It was the first thing I saw this morning before coffee and I was abit bewildered. Thanks :)
lol
