This whole thing has been a pain
But I wonder what is the flu death counts. I am having trouble finding any.
I had lost one cozen from the virus, so it is real, but I wonder about the real count of deaths.

hello leafy Here is an old grid that can help but you need to use it up and on its side to add it up to see where the weights will effect. https://www.besslerwheel.com/forum/download.php?id=6041&order=user_id You need to look for more weight above the center line as would be 3:00 to 9:00 on a cl...

Sorry for not getting back due to my dead computer. Then resurrected one of my older computers and could not get a scanner to work on it. Then i purchased a new scanner printer and now back in operations. Shortly I'll get some drawings scanned so I can post.

I like it. Thanks for posting it.

I always look at the science as what to use after Bessler's secret. For all this acceleration talk and such is useless until you get something that accelerates.

IMHO Bessler's secret is a simple trick of manipulation of weights to get a self powered wheel.

Here is an early drawing of a chart I still us when figuring out design for locating the effects of gravity in a wheel. Then it can be turned sideways to see where the weights are above or below the east to west of aka the 3:00 to 9:00 o'clock line. This is just the very basics to start from. Print ...

People need to realize how much energy has to be used to set and reset a trebuchet. A great place to see it is watch pumpkin chunkin.

Raj I agree

I believe I'll look in my notes and post show some steps that may help the beginner in designing and things that may help them on this quest.

Anyone else is welcome to add steps on how to achieve some design and building of parts as well.

Raj I see where you are coming from with Mt 137 has still a clue to follow. I always looked at it as the weight is to go under the axle to the descending side and still have designs that deal with that approach but have put them to the side. You using the ring in an octagon that the MT137 shows in t...

JAL aka James Lindgaard When is the last time you showed a completed wheel. I have only seen nothing but the same wheel in parts with just slight changes over the last (seams like) the past 10 years. But you do have more parts and seem to be making them look good. People will show what they want, wh...

Goerg, I would share more of my work but the most credible people in here have none to show, nothing recent anyway. And it's okay for people to criticize my work when they haven't contributed anything. That's not really a good way to run a forum. If I think that my build might work then I am projec...

@John Collins, if build works, then what? Should I have listened to the people who know what they are talking about but have no work to show? If you notice, there is no area in this forum where people can show their work without being exposed to ridicule. One forum leader stated that the purpose of...

And yet here you are standing up for your man. I think it's wonderful when 2 people show such emotion for each other. I'm not gay myself but wish the best for the 2 of you. I'm sure your wall on Facebook is filled with with pictures of the 2 of you. If you don't get it, you, ab hammer, Walt, etc. d...

The builder and designer There are people here who design an those who build and of course do both. As a designer you spend many hours with pencils, rulers, and compass, drawing out design after design and altering them over and over. Some designers spend like wise but on a computer with programs de...
