Remember SMOT?
The ball was put in a position of high potential magnetic energy that's why
it made it up the ramp back to the start.

Incorrect. Below saturation it will have a low reluctance and so form a
preferential path for the flux. Above saturation it looks like air again.

Mumetal does not block the field. Once mumetal saturates the field

A mumetal shield is arranged with a camming device such that when the
disk is rotated by hand, the attractive force of the magnets adds
momentum to the disk. When the rotor magnet is nearest the stator
magnet, the cam drops the shield between the

If you give the system a spin, then a shield can move in and out (which

If so, then perhaps the conductive parts create a large inductive drag,
which keeps things from spinning fast. If the effect is genuine, then
plastic parts and nonconductor supermagnets (composite rubber
supermagnets) might make a big

Yah, Billbo. I was going to suggest to Sean that his rotor disk be
made of PVC. However, he seems to be doing fine without my help. :-)
