Dave,

I just thought of something, what if the height is what is capacitor in a tank cct, and the coils are the inductor part, when you tune these two rings to certain frequency , it will automatically oscilate....hehehe i'm probably talking out of my behinni, i just think the height has something to do with all of this.

cheers,

Domo   

Hi All,

I've been thinking along the lines of a tuning fork, you can buy these from any music shop, when you hit it in your hand, it resonates at the frequency it was made at, this is exactly along the lines of the two rings, here's pic of tuning fork, look at it and notice it is a fork, i.e TWO.   Same thing as Steven Marks devices....two rings made to resonante at certain frequency, the hits are coming from the coil and magnet.

Now all I need to do is work out how to make it.

Cheers,

Dom 

Guys a thought here (more theory I know but something worth considering). I came up with this after looking at Marco's post relating to the magnetic vortexes.

My thought was to mimic the vortices on a magnet. The two control coils are a matched set (the ones without a connected signal source) while the others are the north vortices which are powered. The non connected coils are sympathetic LC circuits that produce an opposite yet weaker signal (like the magnets domains).

In looking at the clear picture, 10in spool. SM10? It would be a plastic, Right? Pop metal or aluminum wouldn't be a good air coil. Steel, that is an RFC. We would have to hear him lay it down on something.
1 layer of coils. looks like 4, looking down through the spool you can see across another winding. All physically looks like 16g pair speaker wire, look at the one in front. Remember, he worked in audio. The coil on the right could be magnet wire, but zoom and look at the physical side pattern. It looks like the front windings. The lighting could be wrong. The one across looks the same. I would say there is another by his fingers. White leads look like they go into the windings.
Where the meter leads touch, looks like where the spool crank handle went. And underneath that one can see 2 white leads each connected to some kind of bundle. The parallel / serial connections posted earlier?
And once again, there is a lumpage inside the ring, under his thumb.
@tao, yes! a clear video would be an immense amount on formation just through things moving to change the angular perspective.

Is this a new or old picture? Is the coil(cat) finally out of the bag? Biggest question yet?
And since we see that this working device is minimal with one layer, OOOOOOwEEEEE. He did stack them then to produce more!

@everyone,
I would like to see more. I scream for more! From the post by Mannix, this proves that we are struggling unneccessarily while we learn. The answers are truly at someones disposal. Cat and mouse game i say.
I would rather work along side the inspiration than roust it out with pitch forks and torches?
Wouldn't it be great instead of competively posting small obscure findings that we be posting things like:
I got a hum so big today that is scared the cat to death. Or Holy sh*t the amperage burned a hole through the hood of my car. Or, the voltage shot up very fast and the damn thing punched a hole through my garage roof, now Norad is accusing me of a personal unlicensed missile launch threatening the very nature of world security.
NAh na, NAH na, na nah. I got purple sparks today and you only got blue. Oh man, Did ya hear what happened to --giantkiller? His truck had a green glow and he got pulled over and sent to the illegal glow jail! Well that was after Tao streaked Area 51. I heard they are still trying to catch him. Where is everybody else? On the beach making sand castles.
Could be fun...

--giantkiller, I know what I want.

Guys,

while I was reading this thread awhile back, I thought of a radical new design for a coil,
now I'm not an engineer or anything, I'm just an old TV repair guy who's been in the business for 25 years, though I'm currently un-employed now.

I have never seen,heard or read about the kind of coil I'm about to describe (maybe because it doesn't do anything un-usual), but I figured I would throw it out there, and see what some of you think about it.


take a piece of flexible plastic tubing, and stretch it out straight....
wrap the tubing with wire from end to end...
now........ coil up the tubing !

what would be the effect of the magnetic field cutting across the adjacent coils (if any) ?
I am not sure, even though I HAVE made one, I haven't been able to pulse it, because my equipment is packed up right now.

if you want to see a picture of it, I will be happy to post it if you want, but i think you get the idea from my description .

my post was lost in the horrible quote i did but bassically my question is, if you have 2 coils A and B and they are resonating to create spikes, then the resulting spike resonant frequency is a harmonic of a third coil (which may be tuned to an earth frequency) which will cause a 2nd climb in amplitude. Then say that final amplitude jump is a frequency that resonates one of the original A or B's or both, it seems like  this will credate a viscious cycle. sorry for the not so good description. Evan

Kosh,

I re-did my experiement with pulsing my torrid via the control coil and observed the same results as you, a ringing waveform in the large coil. Just validating your experiement since I had also experienced this before.
