Searls Glass SEG
« on: October 26, 2006, 09:59:01 PM »
Have been reading up on John Searl all week, great stuff, but the big machine stuff is way to complicated and out of my scope when it comes to making the actual magnets.

BUT!! what is interesting is the Glass SEG that is claimed to work.

Has anyone tried to re-produce this?, if not then I think this could be a simple enough project to have a play with.

Regards

Sean.

Hi,

Why do they call it glass?

Because the disc is cut out of glass.
Now whether there is a difference between using PlexiGlass or real Glass is a good question.

Sounds interesting. I wonder what glass or Plexiglas does in the design.

Well seems a simple enough design, the arms with the magnets attached are cantilevered and adjusted with a spring to keep them horizontal.
There is a cam attached to the center that pushes the arms down
So as the strong magnet (arm with 2 magnets) comes down just on the edge of one of the magnets in the disc it will repel and then pull the opposite magnet up.
So getting the magnets spaced correctly and the tension on the springs is critical.

I have requested some more info on this to see if there are some closer pictures.

Regards

Sean.

Great work Clanzer. That's a very interesting device. I don't think it's going to be long until we get one of these magnet motor working, self running, and generating usable force and then electrical power! This is exciting times!

Have started to play with a new wheel to try get the SEG effect.

A new wheel I milled out this weekend along with the armature that allows me to position the magnets in different configurations.

First impressions are that just lightly moving the arm back and forth does indeed rotate the wheel.
Now just got to work out the cams for automating this little one.

So nothing exciting to report so far , just thought it would be good to share.

Regards

Sean.

Sounds very interesting.

Have been reading up on John Searl all week, great stuff, but the big machine stuff is way to complicated and out of my scope when it comes to making the actual magnets.
I'm curious, do you know anyone who's made the full blown Searl machine with the micro magnet formations?

Hi Paul

The guys at http://www.searleffect.com/ are in the process of gradually making the custom magnets to build a full size SEG.
I have attached a picture of the latest produced segments, but realise this is a work in progress.

Some good hostory and phto footage from the early years are online and an interesting subject, must admit.

Regards

Sean.
