>:(Hi all!
Seems to me that W.Torbay motor forum is dead. Looks to me, that everyone lost interest
in this motor design. I must admit that video from W,Torbay is fraud on massive scale.
Many people lost countless hours, trying to replicate this motor. So, I declare his motor and his patent
worthless and null. Everyone knows that opening in circular magnet will pull another magnet with same
polarity to the gap. This is a physical law and it can not be patented as such. What I am doing, I am
trying to deviate completly away from W.T. motor design (if we can call that design).
As I mentioned before, in my design I have two stator arms pushing upwards, against rotor cap with
upward push from step-up rotor magnet. Two stator arms pushing up, and one going down
result is lock-up, that stumbling block for centuries.
To Australopitecus: Two ramps I used is powered by small whels on stator arms. One shaft is normal
length, next one is shorter, next one longer and so on. So two stator arms are riding on separate ramps.
To CLaNZer: Arm that is pushed up, must be locked in 3/4 upward travel, then released when next
arm start to go up. I have an hint for you. That arm which goes down, will help you to pull the rotor thru
lock-up point. Wery soon, I hope, this motor will turn.
To W.Torbay: It is now time to came up with your story, to came up with your working motor.
       ;)Till next time
         God bless you all

Hi Honk!     
Yes, I have a excelent response from two stator arms pushing on two separate tracks under
rotor cap. Trick is that I dont allow raised arm to reach highest position. Now, I work on
downward ramp to drive rotor thru lockup, in order to bring next two stator arms in
proper position. Problem is that I can`t hold rotor in place, it has tendency to turn, forces
are to great. Then, another problem- to design proper curvature of downward ramp.
Initionaly I am bulding it from small pieces of plexiglass glued together, then filing them to
proper shape. All that movement is created without helping anything by hands. When I finish
I will post complete motor on this forum. It takes a lot of time to do all this.
Very soon, I hope, this motor will run. It looks great (at least to me).
For driving rotor thru lockup, everything is resolved, now only hard work is left.
My hope is still high.
God bless
Frank
 

HI everyone!
After more than a year, I am still working on and
traying to replicate this Torbay Motor. If I change something in design, usualy I end up with, almost building motor from
begining. So, work is still progressing painfully slow, but end
is now very close.
               God bless

Well done Frank for still keeping with it, would Love to see some updated photos of your Rig.

Cheers

Sean.

hello to all! been a while since I look at this topic! Torbay with your fabrications! and I have studied the concept and saw the plans, and videos etc ... and I think most of us have done stupid things, including me! because I also made a Torbay, which was amended and again and again ... j'usqu'à results very promising! Unfortunately my prototype shot 1 minute, then the magnet stators were loose! bad glue! I wait to have my 4-axis CNC to produce accurate and robust! here are some pictures that I made corrections on the motor!

? Is there someone on this topic??

next pictures

good news I am not alone!

thank's Eric for your watching   you've also built a torbay? have you had the same problems we all here?
if not, I can not wait to have my 4 axis CNC! order to machine all parts of the pictures I put here!

sorry for my english!! i'm french!

It's great that it ran for a minut. Then there is hope.
I never build a complete motor. I did some basic tests. The magnets where strong and I feld the big forces.
I canunderstand that the glue came loose.
I used arc segments: http://fdp.nu/torbay
