Ta ta ta ta ta!

Got my balsa wood and the cyanoacrylate glue for 1,80$ and 8,00$ respectively today!

Still have to do some very very very very basic calculations (6 year old and up) for the angles since there are little problematic things, overall should be done in less than 10 minutes if I wanted to do them now, but I won't since I have stuff to do.

I'll also go investigating the wonders of the power source this weekend, so I'll have all the instruments in hand pretty soon.

Blast! I forgot the very very thin wire when I went to get the wood. **Sigh** I'll get it along with the power source this weekend, and that's if I don't have to build the blasted transfo from spare parts because it is too expensive.

That is all.

I can't believe I am actually crazy enough to go through this, but what the hey.

I'll start a thread about construction/test of lifters after I am done building and testing mine + attempting to understand the effect better.

Well Ta! (For real this time)

(Edited because my keyboard is stupid. Or maybe it's the other way around.)

Hey, Mr. X! You must have the same kind of keyboard as me! *grin*

In Oregon, USA, thrift shops often sell used and dysfunctional electronic gadgets for a dollar or two. I don't know if they have any similar junkshops where you are, but the copper wire used to wrap the ferrite antennae in some AM radios is pretty fine stuff and might answer your needs cheaply.

Hmm, yes, but since it only costs a couple bucks I'll be okay, methinks.

That tranfo might be quite a hit, and I may need to build it, but there is a world of difference between my theoretical knowledge of those and practical knowledge, yikes!

Just found a link to another lifter with similar properties to the transdimensional technologies lifter (and guess what, they referr to transdimensional technologies);

Another Lifter



This lifter make no claims as to spacecraft propulsion potential, instead they state clearly that their system is pure Ion propulsion technology.

Phobos--I tried to revisit Jeffery Cameron's page with the paper on asymmetric gravitational propulsion and it had been pulled from the web, except for a horribly mangled html rendering of the original pdf which lingered in Google's archives. Any idea what's going on? Trans dim tech's homepage was also gone for a while, but now they have a title page up again, though no links to content. ??

(Wish I'd saved a pdf copy of that paper...)

Phobos,
I remember seeing the device in your post in Popular Science magazine sometime in the '70s (in fact it was the cover story). Definitely "ion wind".

Sorry I haven't posted for a while - a combination of business pressures and christmas (plus a month working in Spain). I have to refresh my research before I can give new data, but I came across the Ion Drive which was unquestionably connected to the issues we have been discussing.

From things I have been hearing I also think the John Hutchison connection is worth further checking.
