Hi Jones and Terry, I am almost always subscribed to vortex-l, but I do not read every post. Magnetic motors are one of my main interests.

I presume that channel 1 in the scope photo is the voltage waveform. What is the channel two waveform? It looks like the voltage across a current sampling resistor in series with the solenoid. What is the value of the sampling resistor? The mechanical energy output looks more difficult to verify. The only proof of utility that would be convincing is a self runner. Put an efficient permanent magnet generator on the shaft and measure the electrical output as a next step toward a self runner. An electrical to electrical energy comparison would be more convincing.
