Hi John and Scott and everyone.
I think jack is right translation rather than shot-gun.
It is because I have checked by my experiment.
There is a "jack" action during rotation.
Activation or accrelation starts from the jack.
If anyone could find the "JACK", he can solve the puzzle.
Yesterday I finally found what is the jack.
It is real jack. It can lift heavy weight.
I am still building my wheel.
I want to say sorry to Scott because I did not send you my design last time. It is because it was not complete one.
Last time Fletcher announce about my building.
But no one gave any comment about it.
Anyway I think the motion start from the jack.
The poem also start from the jack about the description of the motion.
I still did not found everything.
But I can say clearly, the motion start from the "jack".
I want to say anyone who want to build Bessler wheel, "Find first, what jack is".
Sorry I drink much beer today because I want to celebrate the day of finding "what is JACK".
I wish your good luck
