Mark,

IMO it does not necessarily have to be pointed at Ezekiel's wheel. It is the word 'Proverb' that for some reason after all these years caught my attention.

First I confirmed the meaning of 'proverb' as meaning something religious or Biblical. A Google search of proverb and wheel brought up the information I posted above plus a lot more!

You can see that interpretations differ and some can be compared to other Bessler statement and alleged clues.

Its basically another 'take it for what its worth' input.

Thanks, Ralph. When I first read that post I was a little perplexed. I recognized the text describing Ezekiel's vision, but couldn't figure the connection to the particular "old proverb" that Bessler was referring to.
At least now I understand why you posted it. Was beginning to think you were losin' it. :D

Fletcher, I didn't have to learn "hot stove" first hand. My dumbass older brother grabbed a pot one day (the old kind, metal pan with a metal handle) without a potholder. Hearing him holler and seeing the bright red imprint on his hand was good enough for me!

Jim,

No, no, no, don't pin that one on me! That was Ralph that brought Biblical into it. :D

Yes, it's true. I learned from the experience. But when making Mental Notes To Self, there's a difference between Never do that again, and Don't ever do that. In that instance it also meant the difference between crying and laughing. Not that he didn't sock me for it later.

Change of Subject.......I'm curious to know when John Collin's will reveal his "Bessler"wheel,if i rem.correctly its to coincide with the 300th anniversary,i hope he is successful after putting much time,effort and money into the venture.....to me personally he deserves credit as does most of the members here who participate in constructive and intelligent input .....so will he succeed where so many of us and others have failed...what do you think?

"... it's no good posting designs for gravitywheels because no-one will accept anything except a working model. So regretfully I have decided against sharing my design for now..."

Probably true Bill. The proof of the pudding is in the eating.
I dont know what Bessler did but I am building a perpetual pendulum.
So very very simple on paper.
PITA in the shop though. Hopefully another week or two and have a video to post. Wish me good luck.

I think John does his own builds.
