David,
Physics states that the state of a body or physical system at rest or in unaccelerated motion in which the resultant of all forces acting on it is zero and the sum of all torques about any axis is zero.
With that said the wheel running with no load at 26 rpm was reported as having a rapid even motion, but I have not read anywhere that when under a load that it had a smooth or even motion, only that it ran at a constant rpm. Example take a one cylinder four cycle engine running with no load it will run very smooth but apply a load and the slower it runs the rotational speed will become more uneven but still maintaining constant rpm.
We all know for a fact that gravity is a form of energy, just like sunlight or heat. If someone can discover how to convert that energy into something we can store or use would be a great benifit to all of us.
Nobody that I know of knows exactly how Bessler built his wheel but there is alot of evidence to support the the fact that Bessler did discover how to do this.
Some solutions to problems are easier than others. For example if I gave you a handful of pebbles and told you that I wanted them placed on the floor in a random fashion, you could place each one on the floor one at a time or just dump them all once.
If you are here to tell us that we are wasting are time with this idea you are wasting your time. I look forward to some contributions from you.
Respectfully,
Ron
