Tom Ferko's Magnetic-Gravity Motor Idea

Hi Sterling, ---I had a dream--- this is a drawing
of a motor idea that came to me last night in a dream. Its a no brainer and it
works with GRAVITY and PERMANENT RING MAGNETS. You can even use
cheap ceramics if you wish.
Look at the jpeg.
There are 8 equally spaced slippery -- no friction-- nylon or Teflon rods going through the sides of a rotating hexagontal (or round) drum. All rods focus on the center point of the drum.
HUNG on these rods are RING magnets shown by the
large 8 black areas. These ring magnets are held from leaving either side of
the rod by felt washers. The washers are soft magnet stops.
There are the same amount of ring magnets on each of the 8 nylon
rods. All ring magnets are free to slip travel from the inside stop to
the outside stop -- Both ways. The drum with every thing in
it rotates on its axis
Next lets focus on the large permanent magnet bar
in the center. It is RIGID and does not turn as the drum does. The drum covers
it and rotates around this magnet.
Note the polarity of the rigid magnet. The north
pole is on the right side. All the ring magnets have their north poles facing
towards the center rigid magnet. Starting from the top and going
clockwise we see the drum rod ring magnets are repelled and are
driven TO THE OUTSIDES as far as the rod stops will allow.
Looking at the bottom we see as the drum rotates
clockwise notice that the south pole attracts the drum magnets and pulls
them as close as the rod stops will allow TO THE INSIDES.
What we have here is an imbalanced drum condition
that will make the drum rotate forever.
Observe two kids on a see saw. Each weighs
the same. The right kid is sitting on the end of the plank and
the left kid slides towards the planks center fulcrum point.
What happens is the right kid on the
outside end of the plank will come down with a thud real quick.
Its the same situation here. The magnets use
their power only to slide around on the nylon rods and their weight
shifts. Gravity does the rest. That weight shift means the right side of the
drum will always be heavy with respect to the center of the drum. The left
side will always be lighter with respect to the center of the drum.
The pink mark shows this
imbalance. Easy to make?? You bet it is. I
have all the parts. Comments???? Tom

This idea is not new....I have had a gif of the "running" motor for years, I added it in the Joe Folder in the photos section. Sometimes that gif runs, and sometimes it doesn't, (just like some of these motors:)
I always thought something like this might work, but not really Some Variations to Consider

The fly in the ointment Consider just two sliding magnets - fixed in the center of travel - the arm would be in balance because of the equal attraction and repulsion and the arm will pass by the magnets freely. Now, allow the magnets to slide - the NS combination will be in strong attraction because of their close proximity BUT the NN combination will be far apart - repulsion will be weak -the forces will not balance, the arm will lock up! However, that being said, one could offset the central magnet to favor the NN combo so that the spacing would be more favorable, then fit an iron shoe to progressively move the magnets into their working position.
