Re: Wow!

I’ve been admiring your TT since you’d presented it. You can see my humble attempts in my gallery.
I made a couple of things differently than what’s on your drawing.
I drilled the magnet 1/16” on both sides and 1/32” through. My 1/32” string has even more freedom of movement = more wiggly arm. My magnets are shaped on end: the stationary is conical, the other semispherical that stabilizes my wiggly arms. I also used a pole pieces made from soft steel. My experiments with different pole pieces are too few to be conclusive. I understand the pole piece should strengthen the magnetic field on axis of magnet making the design less wiggly. I also left more AL around magnet.
The biggest change in my second clone (the one in the picture) is the arm hanging from a magnet not from a string; that changes the geometry of design and the forces in it.
As I said I may be totally wrong, I am still working on both of them.
