that basically they rest for a period, a certain space of angle (guess how much) and then reconnect, so there IS a bang associated with this aspect of the machine. I am going to give it till the weekend to finish testing my other idea and draft out some mechanics for this one, and if anyone wants to pursure this as a line of discussion I'll give more info.
Bill, I agree with your comments on everyone using Besslers quotes to whatever advantage they want-or do (myself of course included), and there's the risk that since they are so vauge;anyone who succeeds in building a perpetual motion machine might have these quotes applied to what they did. However anyone who does build such a machine does deserve full credit, and proof of such a working device lends credit to Bessler also doing the same-whether the same-near same, of not. That being said there are similarities to Besslers quotes and what I am talking about.
I'll post more on these if asked for when I have more time. I've had to come and use my brothers computer since the library booted me off, and he's running out the door to pick up his wife.
Later,
Michael
