 Is it time for a blacksmith on standby? LOL  ;D

 For this job it looks like one will be needed.

Hi dolomo,

Thanks for the video, I'll get at it later...too many posts to read now. Thanks

Hi Walter Hofmann,

Thanks for the nice pictures, blacksmith? A voodoo priest would make more sense out of it.  ;D

I bought many years ago during my early years as diesel mechanic an old truck for fun. An old Walter 1931. It wasn't good for rebuilding but that wasn't why I bought it. It took me 2 years to dismantle it to bolts and iron but I learnt a lot about magnetos, downdraft carburetor, flathead adjustments, etc...

Many parts I recognize in his contraption. As to how he used them and why, that is for the next episode.

Have fun,

Michel

maybe as a bit more explanation ed re located to where the castel stands now because this location are the exact cross point of a horizontal and vertical magnet line what has for sure to do with his acomplishment.by the way the engine block is from a ford model T where there are some speculation say that ford has build it that it could run with out petroleum just by adding som magnets

Cow magnets as the story goes.

Interesting that Ed is now connected to the legend...anybody have any Model T bell housings laying around ?

Hi,

Yes, if I recall well, the Ford Model T, the alternator was located in the bellhousing with the magnets on the flywheel. As parts recognized, the yoke for the handle used to turn the alternator is from a mechanical brake linkage as the mounting linkage threads were offset, for clutch, brake and gas pedal or throttle they were straight. He could also have use the Telluric current to generate electricity a la Stubblefield who was powering arc lamps and other electrical apparatus from his earth batteries since he knew of micro magnetic pole by the location of the castle he carefully chose, he probably hanged  his magnetized rods all over to see where they were pointing. The hand generator was a mobile magnetic crane? Looks very heavy.

Great man,

Michel

From what I can recall reading once, magnets mounted on the magneto in combination with cow magnets which could later be inserted into prepared slots in the bell housing, would allow the motor to run without fuel.

Hi dolomo,

I just watched the code144 movie and it is VERY INTERESTING and puzzling. That certainly explains the construction  of the flywheel but I am still in the dark on how it could have been used. I'll watch the video a few times more then I'll sleep on it. Sometimes in sleep I get some weird answers but I also get some good ones.

If my light start shining bright, I'll post what comes out of it.  LOL

Take care all and thanks for the many precious inputs.

Michel

hi phil yes there was still a few layden jars ( see pic) hanging somewhere and a few 4 inch coils there was also a piece of thick solid copper wire coming out of the block under the flywheel.

what you can not see clearly like in the original because of the picture size is that there is a block mounted right in front of the magnet wheeel with a stick on top which has some wire on it and in the middle on the chain is a kind of hook what could be there to attache a layden jar or work as a spark contact

Hi all,
Here is a few more pics of Ed's wheel.
http://leedskalnin.net/wheel.htm
I have almost 120 T model Ford magnets as well...
Here you can see the difference between the different magnet arrangements.
http://leedskalnin.net/et-1.htm
Here are some bottle pics too...http://leedskalnin.net/et-1.htm
Feel free to look around....
Scotty.

junk - indeed - he was using what was around him.  Agreed - much lost knowledge.  Very exciting if we can get ourselves to thinking like people did in 1920...  Read and re-read his magnetic theoriy booklets - The secret has got to be there,

Peace!
