Some Thoughts on the Simplest Explanation of Bessler's Wheel - Bessler's Wheel Uncovered by Another Interpretation of Bessler's Little Book - A Delayed Gift to the World - Turning the Turner - 9 Oct 2006, Columbus Day - Alden E. Park

The Bessler wheel extracted rotational kinetic energy from gravitons. The phenomena was observable because of special low friction Orffyrean roller bearings. Orffyrean technology was revealed from Bessler's chiastic little book parable. All wheels and matter rotating about horizontal axes obtain rotational kinetic energy from gravitons, but the phenomena was observable in Bessler's wheels primarily because of the special low friction properties of those wheels. If people really want to see the Bessler-like wheel working in modern times, someone will need to build a pair of Bessler's special very low friction Orffyrean roller bearings. There will also need to be large enough mass in the wheel and low enough air friction. Initialization or initial transient "cosmetic" behavior will depend on specific material or mechanical arrangements within the wheel, but the important thing is having enough mass and low enough friction. The two-part gravitons will do the rest, assuming the wheel has some initial angular velocity about a horizontal axis (or some initial potential energy from the wheel's interior is converted to rotational kinetic energy to begin further energy acquisition from gravitons). One could ponder upon the often-time slightly temporally offset two downward blows that each electromagnetic graviton strikes opposite ends (one blow on each end with opposite charges on the ends) of a smaller than nuclear-size "anvil" which is "constrained" to rotate with very little friction about a horizontal axis through its center of mass.

What was inside Bessler's wheel? Matter. Why did it work? Because of a basic property (which one could call Bessler's principle) of matter rotating about a horizontal axis made observable with low enough friction. Bessler's principle is related to the Ranque principle referred to by Renzo Boscoli. AEP - 4 Oct 2006

The bearing is born in bearing. The turner is turned by turning. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

Though I currently (7 Oct 2006) suppose that Bessler didn't use this approach in forming his miniature Orffyrean roller bearings, it is conceptually useful to consider these ideas as we think of mental models or conceptual prototypes of Bessler's Orffyrean roller bearings. To make his conceptual prototype Orffyrean roller bearings, Bessler might have used miniature versions of printing cylinders with two types of Orffyrean characters on all opposing surfaces. These two Orffyrean characters were hemispherical-end lobes and slightly-larger-radius-hemispherical-end lobe holes. I think, they were arranged on all the cylinder surfaces (for example they could be in a checkerboard pattern, see the text file link here, BesslerTXT, or see the same link located below within the symbolic "lower roller" portion of this file, index.htm, which lower roller portion is surrounded by the marking "^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v-Small-Radius-Roller-Surface") or from a different perspective, see the final figure in Bessler's Apologia, shown on p. 189 of Collins' 1997 book. This file, index.htm, is being used to represent a simplified conceptual prototype of Bessler's Orffyrean roller bearing. The part we are currently in is within the exterior containing wall of the Orffyrean roller bearing. I suspect that there were at least six smaller Orffyrean cylinders rotating around the central cylinder axle, as suggested by my 2001 paper and front figure. More cylinder could have been included to provide more structural support if needed and if they could fit, without danger of them interfering with each other. I think that each small cylinder would usually have had 12 characters per column, see the front figure (FrontFigurePDF) of my 2001 paper (BesslerWheelPaperHTM) and again see the text file link (BesslerTXT) to the checkerboard pattern with 12 rows within the "lower or bottom small roller" below. I don't know the number of columns. My son, Christopher, asked me a question regarding Bessler's final figure specifications in Apologia, about what happens during the approximately three degree gap (360/12 - 27 = 3) of non-contact. I have since considered that it is like Bessler's translated words referring to the bow twanging and the runner running. Each lobe springs away like a bow and then the small roller (like a runner) flies through the air for about three degrees of its rotation relative to its opposing Orffyrean surface and then adjacent forward lobes come down suddenly like the runner landing on the other leg in the corresponding lobe hole and rotating rolling without slipping (with no lubrication being applied) or landing like the tracking cat teeth suddenly pouncing and biting upon or sinking quickly-deeply into the tracked mice (with "teeth" lobes from above and below). There is essentially no gentle rubbing/slipping of one metallic surface with respect to another and so there is essentially no such associated heating/frictional loss. This kept the small bearings cool and able to withstand the heavy (possibly 900 pounds, p. 202 of Collins' 1997 book) Kassel-wheel extended-continuous-testing (for 54 days at 26 revolutions per minute, p. 16 of Collins' 1997 book) with no cooling or lubrication being supplied externally to the bearings. There would be some tiny loss of energy through sound/vibration, but that is a lower energy loss effect (power drain loss than the power gain from the gravitons for properly built bearings with low enough friction). Though Bessler may have considered actual large movable font Orffyrean characters for the Orffyrean cylinders of his earliest conceptual prototype Orffyrean roller bearing, I think that his actual or displayed versions used miniature solid Orffyrean cylinders without movable font characters for the greatest structural stability. The visible outside wall of containing cylinder of the Kassel wheel version of his Orffyrean roller bearings were about 3/4" in diameter. See p. 110 of Collins' 1997 book. AEP - 9 October 2006

I was not sure where the Orffyrean roller bearings were physically located but I am now (26 Sep 2006) convinced that a pair of the very tiny Orffyrean roller bearings were located or housed outside each wheel (one on each side supporting each axle end) usually in plain sight. That would have given the Bessler wheel maximum rotational stability, with the axles rotating with the wheel and contributing to the mass of the wheel. See for example these pages of Collins' 1997 book: Gera 15 ("pair of supports, cordoned off"), Draschwitz 32 (axle bolts), Merseburg 67 ("bearing or journal on the end"), 72 (iron journals and bearings), 133 (thin journal), Kassel 20 (pair of bearings), 91 (bearings and journals), 108 (two small bearings), 110 (about 3/4" diameter iron bearings on both ends), 162 (two bearings 3/4" diameter), 198-199 (bearings and journals), 203 (bearings uncovered). The separate bearings would explain why he focused all his public attention on the wheel (withholding looks inside, smashing the wheel, etc.), so as to try to completely divert attention from his bearings, the real invention behind his wheels. The small Orffyrean roller bearings were technological miniature marvels, but Bessler may have referred to them as merely "bearings" or "iron bearings". Could one see in at an end of one of them? I am guessing that Bessler would have closed off on both ends (as much as possible) the viewing of the interior to the inner workings of the bearings so as to protect his real invention. He could have said that he was trying to keep dust out of the bearings. Even if one end of the bearings were open to view (which I doubt), I imagine that ends of ordinary cylinders would only be visible to the inspector. If that were the case, had anyone thought to ask Bessler what kept the cylinders from running into each other? I think that Bessler didn't want to give anyone any reason to ask him any questions about his "ordinary" iron bearings (which were actually in no way "ordinary"). The less said about them the better until he sold one of his wheels (complete with bearings). Anyway everyone was coming to see the wheel and everyone "knew" that Bessler's wheel contained the actual invention (or so they supposed). They could hear the weights hitting within. Within Bessler's little book, Bessler referred to a properties of the wheel without weights. The wheel need not have separate weights moving around inside. The rotating mass in the wheel and axle was provided energy by the two-part gravitons but the phenomena could not have been observed so readily without Bessler's invention. Bessler acknowledged his help from God in arriving at his invention, but he wouldn't directly say what his invention was. Nonetheless, he made many references to the physical properties of his invention in Apologia. AEP - 4 Oct 2006

I suspect that Bessler pulled a "fast one" on Karl. It was not with malicious intent but rather with invention protection intent. Bessler showed Karl the interior of his Kassel wheel, Karl saw the wheel clearly working, Karl saw the simple workings within the wheel, but I think that Karl didn't actually understand the real invention of Bessler's (the special Orffyrean roller bearings). The moving parts that Karl saw were enough evidence to satisfy Karl that it was a real invention without deception. It was a real invention. It is just that I think Karl never figured out where the real invention actually resided and Bessler was not about to volunteer that information so as to protect his real invention. Karl indicated that it was simple (see for example pp. 158, 208 of Collins' 1997 book). If Karl really understood the connection with the special bearings or the properties of all wheels rotating about horizontal axes, I think Karl would have made some indirect reference to one of such but I am not currently aware that Karl ever spoke anything related closely to either. I think Karl just thought that the moving weights inside the wheel were providing the extra motion but in actuality it was all the rotating mass in the wheel (including its axle) (as all were rotating) when interacting with the two-part gravitons that gave the extra rotational kinetic energy to Bessler's wheel. It would have still worked if Bessler had tied down his weights (but they were accomplishing the purpose that they were designed for, that is as an illusion to anyone actually viewing the interior of Bessler's wheel so they would not realize that it was a basic property of matter rotating about a horizontal axis in a gravitational field). (If an invention robber precisely duplicated or stole Bessler's wheel without his bearings it would not have worked but with the bearings it would have worked with or without the internal weights moving, as long as the Kassel wheel were given some initial angular velocity about its axis.) The extra rotational kinetic energy was coming from the total mass of the fops (whether stiff or moving). Bessler also indicated that the invention was very simple and he indirectly spoke in reference to inside the wheel and to outside the wheel (though he spoke in cryptic language to get us to thinking). There are various examples that speak about both (within Apologia), as for example consider the stiff master fops (who don't want their clothes damaged by the dog's paw nails) watching from afar giving an appreciative pat on the paws to the bearing dog who has done his tricks. The stiff fops need not have been worried as the mild mannered dog never scratched. Other viewpoints will be available in my second Bessler wheel paper. Indeed by the repeated miracle of the two-part graviton (being time delayed in the two parts), it is the fops who are generally quite stationary with respect to the rotating wheel that provide extra rotational kinetic energy to the wheel.

URL Abstract: Two-part electromagnetic gravitons supply additional rotational kinetic energy to wheels and nuclei that are rotating about horizontal axes, because of two often temporally-slightly-separate downward pulls. Energy production increases according to mass and prior angular speed. The Bessler wheel picked up energy from gravity because of low rotational friction, allowed primarily by the special lubrication-less metal-to-metal rolling-without-slipping Orffyrean roller bearing. Miniature strong Orffyrean roller bearings are incrementally constructed of steel in place during bearing, using gunpowder and mercury. The bearing is born in bearing. The turner is turned by turning. 9 October 2006 - Alden E. Park

    Warning. Various things referred to in this Internet site are potentially quite dangerous. For a fixed size and mass, every variant of a Bessler wheel, with reduced friction, acquires more energy from gravity and should thus be considered inherently more dangerous. There are many untested safety issues regarding filling tires with water instead of air to possibly increase miles per gallon of fuel for high-speed constant-velocity vehicles. Using gunpowder and mercury in the construction of Bessler's small Orffyrean roller bearings could be quite hazardous so special safety precautions would be needed. AEP - 6 October 2006

Potential Seizing Up Problem. If someone builds a modern day Orffyrean roller bearing, I think that people should initially hold off on putting such bearings in wheels where people's lives could be in danger or in wheels that need sudden braking, because if the lobes and lobe holes ever get out of synch, they potentially could seize up. During the 31 October 1715 examination of Bessler's wheel at Merseburg, there was "... quite a loud noise caused by the internal mechanism which lasted until the machine was brought to a forced stop. Nothing suspicious was found." see p. 72 of Collins 1997 book. The examination didn't say that the noise came from the bearings during the forced stop but rather from the internal mechanism of the wheel so this was probably not a problem at all for Bessler's Orffyrean roller bearings. The roughly three degrees of "in the air" would make a "traditional checkerboard" arrangement of lobes and lobe-holes of the Orffyrean small rollers much "easier" to install, but if one Orffyrean surface (when being used) is "in the air" relative to another Orffyrean surface when one surface has a large enough change in velocity, then this might cause a position or phase angle alignment problem which might result in a braking or seizing up problem. I haven't done test calculations for potential geometries so I don't know how big a problem it is or if the problem could be avoided with careful selection of sizes. Any seizing up problem (if there is one), would need to be solved first before such an Orffyrean roller bearing were to get extensive use. AEP - 6 Oct 2006

A solution that I can suggest to the potential seizing up problem is to use columns of Bessler's traditional checkerboard or Courier-like pattern Orffyrean surface that are offset in phase angle (relative to the next column) so that the small Orffyrean rollers are never completely "in the air" for any roughly three degrees of rotation with respect to a surface. There would always be pressure contact between a small roller and its opposing surfaces (though maybe not in all columns). Each column of Orffyrean lobe and lobe-hole characters would individually have about three degrees of "in the air" followed by about 27 degrees of stressed rolling without slipping contact (assuming 6 + 6 = 12 Orffyrean characters per column). This column angular offset would be a hybrid solution. The pattern would only be Courier-like for each column but each column could be shifted by some fixed amount of phase angle between columns. The angular shift would not be required to be constant between columns but a constant might be best as the rollers would stay balanced and there would tend to be minimal distances over which the stresses are conveyed. Assembly of such versions of the Orffyrean roller bearings would be much more difficult because of the smaller rollers always being under stress contact. One couldn't simply insert the tiny rollers, as I suspect Bessler did with his earliest prototypes. There are many approaches for the assembly of a hybrid. I touched on one method in my first paper, though I didn't then realize the extent of the large stresses during inserting of Orffyrean sprocket wheels (columns) during assembly given sprocket wheels [columns] being offset in [phase] angle, say pp. 49-50. I think that method would not be practical for such miniature Orffyrean sprocket wheels, where they are all formed together as a solid Orffyrean roller. AEP - 6 Oct 2006

Here is an hybrid assembly solution that I am sure that Bessler did not use. A solution for assembly (of a miniature but safer version of the Orffyrean roller bearing) could be to (1) separately mold the small rollers and central axis Orffyrean cylinder and portions of the "large" Orffyrean containing cylinder, and (2) put them together under large stress and held under stress say by wrapping many turns of wires, (3) welding the materials together while held by the constriction wires, and (4) inserting the Orffyrean roller bearing into a sturdy extra containing cylinder. That would form a hybrid Orffyrean roller bearing. I doubt that Bessler would have built his roller bearings that way (given he only had about a 3/4 inch diameter total for his Orffyrean roller bearing. Still when the engineering bugs are worked out, it might be safer (if it didn't fall apart) than a tradition checkerboard pattern Orffyrean roller bearing, given braking situations but I am not giving any guarantees. AEP - 7 Oct 2006

Other possibilities for construction of a hybrid might fall under the heading of production during steady heavy usage with either wearing down of lobe hole or the accretion of hot metal droplets (similar to snowflake formation) to form or finish forming and strengthening the metal pieces in place (and also slightly similar to the idea of the refiner's fire). Multiple such "fires" may be needed, if one proves to be insufficient but hopefully one iteration with many wheel turnings will suffice. There are many hints from Bessler's chiastic little book proper that Bessler took such an in-usage under-fire approach in constructing a hybrid bearing, under load bearing conditions. With the bearings on the axle ends, there would have been room at the top, after putting slightly undersized hybrid Orffyrean rollers together with trial Orffyrean surfaces but I don't think Bessler went that undersized Orffyrean roller route. AEP - 7 Oct 2006

Likely method of Bearing Construction. The most likely possibility that I have considered (as of 7 Oct 2006) for Bessler's bearing construction could also avoid the need for complex Orffyrean molding, also avoid the seizing up problems, and also avoid impossible assembly procedures. That method would be to use regular or almost regular cylinders, pack in a dangerous mixture of gunpowder, mercury beads and metal bits and let the Orffyrean surfaces form by themselves during the rollings, poundings, micro-explosions, shootings of small metal bits, meltings, and small grain annealings. Higher quality steel might be produced or locally formed on the spot in many layers to form the strong Orffyrean lobes. The ancient lost-art-forges for producing the rare very high quality steel swords (in part by much pounding, folding, pounding, etc. to break up the metal grains until they are very small) might be surpassed by this on the spot method of local even-higher-grade steel formation. The striking of a slightly protruding surface onto another slightly recessed surface in the presence of gunpowder and oxygen could nibble or chew away at the surface near the gunpowder and send bits of metal into the other surface. Such a situation might tend to slowly carve out the Orffyrean lobe holes and grow the Orffyrean lobes if the gunpowder grains were to tend to explode when they are on the side of the Orffyrean lobe holes. To elaborate on this idea, the bits of metal could be tiny spheres of iron alloy or high quality steel that might tend to ignite more often when an Orffyrean lobe slams a small metallic sphere into a grain of ignitable gunpowder beyond which is an Orffyrean lobe hole. The Orffyrean hole could be dug out a little deeper. This could send the metal sphere back onto Orffyrean lobe surface, splattering a liquid metal onto its surface causing it to grow as the metal crystalizes but is broken into small domains. The annealing could be slow while being forge pounded if the temperature from the friction and the explosions were high enough. One might ask the obvious question, "Couldn't the reverse process also occur with the Orffyrean lobe being dug out a little and the Orffyrean lobe hole being filled in?" The answer is yes, but there might be a strategic favoring of the growing of the Orffyrean lobes at the expense of the Orffyrean lobe holes, because the Orffyrean lobes are convex outward and the Orffyrean lobe holes are concave outward. There might thus tend to be a preference for a grain of gunpowder being positioned between a small bit of metallic orb and the Orffyrean hole surface rather than between that small metallic orb and the Orffyrean lobe surface. This is because the Orffyrean lobe hole is more in cupping shape (and so could better tend to hold the grain of gunpowder in place) whereas the Orffyrean lobe is generally less so in cupping shape and not so able to so hold the grain of gunpowder in place. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

During this literally "under fire" formation process, the steel cylinders would be held in place by that dangerous mixture of gunpowder, mercury and tiny spheres of high quality steel. Many tiny spheres of dense mercury could help float the metal cylinders and maybe even locally help process out impurities, as mercury has been used in mining ventures. Little beads of mercury would allow oxygen to get to gunpowder so that there could be micro-explosions. Gunpowder has been known in the western Old World because of the 1242 publication by Roger Bacon (p. 424, Vol. G, The World Book Encyclopedia,1983). Less saltpeter would make it better for blasting or ignition. I mention gunpowder (composed of charcoal, sulfur and saltpeter) since Bessler specifically mentioned sulphur, salt, and mercury. He also chiastically spoke of the words [wooden] clubs, shotgun, snow [flakes], rain [drops], and anvil. See p. 225 of Collins' 1997 book. If gunpowder and mercury are used in the construction of the hybrid Orffyrean roller bearing, they should be considered dangerous and therefore should only be used with the best safety precautions available. AEP - 7 Oct 2006

Because (I think) Bessler made his bearings individually "under-fire", the distance between columns and the angular offsets between columns would have varied and this would have removed the "three degree in the air problem". With many columns, the chances that all the lobes and holes would precisely line up and cause the "three degree in the air problem" would be next to nil. There would always be stress contact between the cylinders. Still, the bearings should be tested just to make sure. The Orffyrean rollers of the finished Orffyrean roller bearing would not fall out if the bearings were held on their side (axis vertical). Because of the relative regularity in the tiny engraved holes or light spots in Bessler's final figure, this suggests that Bessler may have seeded say tiny holes along an edge of one of the cylinders (so that lobes and lobe holes not tend to occur too close to each other) but that would not be necessary and there would be no guarantee anyway according to the nature of the formation process. Small "seed" holes could help holes (and opposing lobes) to grow as an "evil plant" or as snowflakes from tiny beginnings. Periodicity would have been present in each column according to the forming process, assuming Bessler properly chose the radii of his cylinders so as to allow such periodicity (while allowing enough room so that lobes from neighboring small cylinders not clash). Bearings would need to be cleansed of mercury and gunpowder and even the tiny balls of metal. Powders or contaminants would tend to work their way out with enough spinning of Bessler's wheel. With a very high quality steel being produced within the bearings, one might instead be able to flush out the contaminants using modern mercury decontamination methods and recover/recycle the contaminants so as not to pollute the environment. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

Last Comments Regarding the Bearing being Born. Just enough space should be left between intermediate cylinders to allow each intermediate cylinder to grow lobes (or with enough space as a cushion so that their grown lobes not hit each other) with a goal of the proper reinforcing periodicity. The intermediate rollers need to be close enough to provide enough bearing structural support. There might even be an initially expendable piece of metal (probably a ring) on each end to roughly constrain the centers of the small intermediate cylinders so that they are held in place relative to each other, while the Orffyrean roller bearing is being self-constructed. The metal constraint on each end would eventually be worn away with time and friction. In other words, a temporary ring around Saturn (the central axle cylinder) could help hold the smaller Mars-like-intermediate roller ends roughly in place within the larger Jupiter (containing cylinder) while the bearing is being formed. Once the bearing is formed, the end rings would no longer be needed and so should be removed so that they don't cause problems later. Then, the contaminant dust should be removed by cleansing and the ends closed up as much as possible to keep dust out or dust caps can be used on the ends to somewhat keep out dust, though the caps should not interfere with the axle motion. Such temporary constraints are also slightly like Bessler's temporary constraint of a dog creeping out of his kennel just as far as his chain will stretch. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

The density of the mixture of gunpowder, tiny metal spheres, and mercury should ideally be nearly the same as the metal cylinders so that the cylinders are buoyantly neither drawn upward nor downward by their own density (relative to the density of the mixture). I would additionally slowly rotate the outside of the Orffyrean roller bearing during bearing creation to make sure there are no other attitude dependencies in the otherwise horizontal axis constructed bearing. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

I used to go out on the desert (we called it the mesa) in dry washes (we called them arroyos) in almost mile high Albuquerque and collect what we called iron filings (which I think were really portions of very small black meteorites, where any exposed iron probably had rusted and gone away long ago) using a magnet. We could separate out the best from the worst. Sometimes there were rocks with only a little bit of a ferromagnetic black spot on them. Given Bessler's little book it would not surprise me if he had also somehow collected meteorites with a magnet and used them as a source of some of his nickel/cobalt/iron. Bessler would have only used the best or purest quality meteorites. Hopefully the other metals used to form the steel alloy in the Orffyrean lobes along with the micro-explosions (of the battle), scatterings, local forge pounding, flexing and annealing under these conditions would make the lobes strong and bendable like a steel bow. The surface of the lobe holes should also be strong, and the interiors of all the cylinders should have been strong to start with. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

There are a lot of smart people out there in the world, so maybe others can use whatever ideas mentioned (if any) that may be useful and figure out practical Orffyrean roller bearing formation solutions that are low cost, sturdy and safe to use. Maybe my suggestions can be of use to some enterprising Orffyrean engineers or scientists. I suspect there could be more hidden clues within Apologia about Bessler's deeds and maybe how Bessler more precisely constructed his Orffyrean roller bearings. If I had time/resources I could study what I suspect was a huge chiastic structure (outside Bessler's little book parable) as likely formed on the latter side by Bessler's huge list of scriptural references according to his declaration of faith (matching up words or ideas in the scriptures with earlier portions of his book in reverse order). I don't currently (6 Oct 2006) have a full copy of Apologia and its full English translation so I am not able to do that analysis. Others with better resources should be able to study that situation. AEP - 6 Oct 2006

One More Layer in Little Book. I was surprised to find yet one more layer in the multi-layered poetic little book parable by Bessler. That more recently discovered (6 Oct 2006) layer told how Bessler constructed his Orffyrean roller bearings. I am not saying that I understand the layer perfectly but I think I understand enough to get what I think is the "main drift" of the story. The name Orffyreus was quite fitting for Bessler given that construction method but the name also previously fit in well with other prior layers. Bessler's parable really was an amazing little book but one has to open the book to read it, ponder its symbols, and ask questions (as Bessler stated) to find the stories and answers. The depths and dimensions of the stories are impressive for such a little book. It had seemed at times that I had extracted all I could major theme-wise only for me to be surprised later by what more it had to reveal. It really constitutes a huge book as the still small voice of the Spirit revealed its expansive contents. My new unfinished paper, containing another partial interpretation, will not do justice to Bessler's little book, so others will just need to actively read Bessler's little book for themselves. It is a lot like regular scripture from God in that what you get out depends in large part upon your own spiritual preparedness, and your seeking for deeper specific understanding from God. I find it hard to imagine that Bessler had not gotten help from God or else he could not have done, said, and written what he did. Bessler openly acknowledged help from God. AEP - 9 Oct 2006

    Site Overview. Though scientifically speculative (in the tradition of theory) until confirmed or denied by experimentation (I have received enough evidence in many areas for myself), this Internet site deals with various new energy/material technologies, diverse research areas, and some possible relationships. These include: cold fusion, electromagnetic over-unity engines, and energy from gravity by means of say Bessler's wheel. This site addresses various other related topics such as: the high-loading low-friction-yet-lubrication-less Orffyrean-roller-bearing (in part using large numbers of small concave and slightly smaller convex hemispherical balls or orbs in special cylindrical arrangements so as to cooperatively take turns sharing the burdens), construction of Orffyrean roller bearings (or birth of the bearing during bearing), bearings within the Liahona, mechanical Orffyrean technology being merged with electromagnetic over-unity engine technology to increase power output, Bessler's wheel being an example of an "all-mechanical" version of an electromagnetic over-unity engine with a vast number of naturally-asymmetric self-regaugings per wheel rotation, the simplified Bessler pendulum (using a pair of Orffyrean roller bearings for the torque governor wheel and another pair of Orffyrean roller bearings for the pendulum, not having a large wheel, not having a small wheel, and not having a chain around them) being used as a rotational quenching analysis tool, Minto wheel, most precious steel sword of Laban, Nephi's fine steel bow, the Marinov motor, the superiority of the Hertz field equations to the standard Maxwell equations, relativity (both Einstein's special and general theories needing revision), energy flow in "static" electric fields, energy flow in "static" gravitational fields, the two-part graviton (probably having a soliton electromagnetic basis), opposite charges being pulled downward by a graviton, light with local opposite charge disturbances in space being pulled downward by gravity, the Ranque effect or principle spoken by Renzo Boscoli, the Bessler principle or the possibility of the graviton asymmetrically imparting additional angular momentum to an entity rotating about a horizontal axis (providing opposite unequal increments of angular momentum to entities with angular velocities), increasing the mass of wheels (such as putting water within bicycle tubes and car tires, though mass further away from tire edges would be better) to increase energy production from gravity for constant angular velocity situations, suggestions about how Coral Castle was built, vertical axis stone bearings, horizontal axis stone bearings, pyramid building, snowflake formation, "missing" solar neutrinos, the actual power source for the sun, depressed temperature of sunspots with respect to the sun's photosphere, elevated temperature of the solar corona with respect to the photosphere, Kae-e-vanrash, Kli-flos-is-es, Hah-ko-kau-beam, John Collins' suggested yin-yang device, ancient oriental yin-yang device possibly connected with ancient use of gunpowder through bearing formation, rotating nuclear ground-states, the possibility of cold fusion being assisted by nuclear ground-states rotating about horizontal axes in the presence of horizontal magnetic fields, the redefinition of "perpetual motion", digital angular patterns in the Hindu-Arabic numerals, persecution of some of the greatest truths by the devil, God supplying all real power, Hebraic poetry, symbols of God in nature, chiastic world history centered about the atonement of our Lord Jesus Christ, turning the turner by turning, and family history. The arguments against the conservative gravitational field delivering sustained power break down at the level of the graviton (thus allowing for the possibility for a "purely" mechanical device as the Bessler wheel to help bridge by low friction the angular momentum gap between the subatomic and the macroscopic). 2001- 6 December 2002 - 8 February 2003, 6 September 2006, 7 October 2006 - Alden Park

    The Chiasmus. 2001 - 2002 - AEP The chiasmus is a language pattern followed by the pattern in inverted order. By its nature the chiasmus tends to survive translation from one language into another. The chiasmus may be observed in a large number of scriptures. By looking at the words "first" and "last", an example of a chiasm may be seen from part of Ether 13:12 (similar chiasms may also be seen within the scriptures Matt. 19:30, Mark 10:31, and D&C 29:30) where indentations on the left side (like the left side of a giant Greek letter chi) help display the chiasm:

    "there are they who were first,

        who shall be last;

        and there are they who were last,

    who shall be first."

    Second Bessler Wheel Paper. The links to my second or last Bessler wheel paper should go here, but as I have neither finished it nor any preliminary versions of it, the reader will need to proceed to the links for my first Bessler wheel paper. I will attempt to put a review copy of my second Bessler wheel paper on this site that some may want to comment on before I produce a final copy. Even though both of my busy Home Teachers currently (Oct 2006) happen to be physicists, I thought I would try to get review comments on my second Bessler wheel from a larger group. Maybe I can produce a better paper and not concentrate the burden on just a few (many can bear the burden, as is done in the Orffyrean roller bearing). AEP - 1 Oct 2006

My Family History. Here should eventually be a current brief changing "picture" of my family history (excluding living people), including what I know about my Turner ancestors. There are likely many errors which need to be fixed. After I put it here, it may be viewed say by importing or restoring using PAF 5 software which software may be downloaded for free from http://www.familysearch.org/ . You could record some important information about your own family history using Personal Ancestral File (PAF) by filling in the blanks while that information is readily available. Trying to figure out what happened long after things happened is a much tougher job than just collecting information while one can and sharing the information so that the information is less likely to be eventually lost. My family history eventually ties in with the family histories of everyone else. That is a given but just what are the relationships? - AEP - 29 Sep 2006

My Children's Family History. I think my wife is a much better researcher than I am. I have learned many research tips from her. She is holding off on putting her extensive family history research (excluding living people) on the Internet as she considers that there are currently too many guesses. - AEP - 29 Sep 2006

    Paper Short Introduction. My technical paper (along with its front figure) addresses the solution to the nearly three century problem or question "How did Bessler's wheel work?" This question was answered about three hundred years ago within Bessler's Poetica Apologia, though it was unrecognized since Bessler (or Orffyreus) apparently coded his little book answer in symbolic, hidden chiastic fashion. The solution was intended to be recognizable in hindsight from the perspective of the fully working and understood invention. 2001 - 2002 - AEP

With a pair of Orffyrean roller bearings displaced along the axis (one in each direction) to the sides of the Bessler wheel, it is the lower smaller Orffyrean rollers (which location in this file, index.htm, that we are now currently at) within an Orffyrean roller bearing that bear the burden.

    More Warnings. As we enter this new energy age, I encourage people to voluntarily, generously, and wisely use some of the new power and wealth that they will receive to extend the hand of help to those in need. We need to help the needy (which definitely includes giving drink to the thirsty, feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, and providing for the widowed and the young orphaned). People should help the needy so the needy can help themselves and then they in turn can help others in need. Everyone is related to all those poor who are in need. I have heard of an estimate that we would only need to go back about a few thousand years ago to find the most recent common ancestor that we people currently living on this earth share (see Steve Olson reported by Matt Crenson, AP National Writer). We may be much more closely connected genealogically than we previously thought (and with increased mobility the trend is toward closer connections). If wealthy people do not extend any help, I (from my highly limited viewpoint) warn them that the unshared seemingly-large-but-finite power and wealth that they receive during mortality might be at the expense of losing infinite power, wealth and eternal life during their future immortality. But it is not for me to judge such things / people's every thought. Though sin hides the viewing, the people, God's power, and God have the viewpoints that count. Our Heavenly Father wants to give us good things, but it is up to us to ask of God, heed what we receive from God, and do what is right. We can and we should turn unto God, as God has prepared a way that we all can turn unto Him. We would be wise, whatever our state, to encourage the slightest more turning unto God. I suspect that frictional savings from the Orffyrean roller bearing could easily save millions of dollars in energy costs, and the further extra energy produced from gravity (made possible because of the low friction bearing) could easily result in billions of dollars of energy production or savings yearly. Such production or savings could create very powerful enemies to any bearing developers (so this should serve as a warning to potential developers). I am currently distancing myself from any sort of financing or actual bearing construction. Any pioneering person or group brave enough to actually develop a modern day Orffyrean roller bearing might be advised to initially safeguard their plans, production methods, and families. One should not expect fair play from modern-day counterparts of the ancient Gadianton robbers. I am brave but maybe not brave enough to do any more than to say what I figure were the plans that Bessler provided. Maybe others can think of ways to give away detailed plans and sell Orffyrean roller bearings first for demonstration purposes (and later be poised to make money), without opening themselves or their families up for attack by energy thugs. Patents, even if there is something that may be patented, may open the door to the energy thugs. Maybe patents (and open publications) could be quickly sent in just after public demonstrations by trusted associates so that it is considered undeniable in the eyes of the public that we have working wheels that are powered by gravity. AEP - 9 October 2006

Talking about plans and ideas is one thing, but actual production (or near-production) of over-unity engines is something that some of the modern-day Gadianton robbers and murders may fight against. Maybe if there are many people putting more mass in wheels rotating about horizontal axes to save energy costs for steady state rotations, then there would be much interest in producing Bessler's low friction roller bearings for much greater energy savings from these more massive wheels, and then there may be too many people for the mob to selectively strike against (and keep the energy shackles upon). If the people become better educated, they would be wise to cast off their energy shackles and not be so bound by outdated education. Energy should eventually become nearly "dirt cheap" or strictly speaking "cheaper than dirt", as one should be able to fill the interior of a Bessler wheel (having low air friction externally and a pair of Orffyrean roller bearings on its axle ends) with dirt and it will continuously produce "free" energy from gravity. After the new energy revolution has begun, many new types of electromagnetic over-unity engines should begin to appear (more types will become practical because of the Orffyrean roller bearing). AEP - 3 October 2006

Devil Waging War with God. The devil (or great deceiver or great pretender) is still waging war with the truth. Whether he uses/persuades terrorists or mobsters or misinformed people, it doesn't matter to him as his goal is to eternally destroy the lives of as many people as possible (of all nations and races) and to destroy families. He would like to destroy America as that is where the American religion (see the forward thinking 1892 words of "Count Leo Tolstoi, the great Russian author, statesman, and philosopher," regarding the possible future of the "American religion" pp. 412-414 of A Marvelous Work and a Wonder by LeGrand Richards) has been based, as it (the restored church of Jesus Christ) spreads forth to the world "to become the greatest power the world has ever known", but may God protect America and may America put its trust in God to receive his protection. "The little stone which was cut out of the mountain without hands is rolling forth to fill the earth (see Dan. 2:31-45; D&C 65:2)." "The State of the Church" by Gordon B. Hinckley, Nov. 2003, Ensign, p. 7. God will bless eternally (if not now) those people/nations who welcome and embrace the messages from the missionaries of the restored church of Jesus Christ. Unofficially, the Jews were right that the Jews, who are children of Judah, have been an ancient covenant people of God and because of the Jews, covenants of God were brought to the Gentiles with the authority of God and we have the stick of Judah, meaning the Bible, today thanks to the labors of the Jews; the Catholics were right in that authority from God is very important and thanks to the Catholics for preserving the Bible during the Middle Ages which contains covenants of God and many testimonies that the Jew Jesus (born in Bethlehem) is the Christ; the Protestants were right in that the mortal Apostles of God were killed and the authority of God was taken from the earth resulting in the Middle Ages and the need for a reformation; the Moslems, who are children of Abraham, were right in that a prophet from God can lift or benefit an entire civilization and thanks to the followers of the prophet Mohammed we now have the Koran; and the Mormons, who are children of Ephraim, were right that the authority of God needed to be restored by God to a modern day prophet to restore the Church of Jesus Christ and thanks to the Mormons we now have the prophesied New World stick of Joseph which goes along with the Old World stick of Judah, see Ezekiel 37:19. Those who turn away the young missionaries (or turn their backs upon them) will have blessings withheld. This site is not an official site of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Please go to an official site for official information about whatever religion you would like to know more about. The hardened terrorists and modern-day Gadianton robbers and murderers need to know that they from an eternal perspective have only one real hope and that hope is centered in Jesus Christ, as the devil (or the great destroyer) will not support them at judgement day. The terrorists, robbers/murders need to switch to the correct Master (and the sooner the better for them and for others). For hundreds of years the devil has sought to hide the truth about the Bessler wheel (and similar more ancient things). It has been a part of the war that the devil has been waging with God and the truth known to God. The truth will eventually prevail in part because of modern revelation. Revelation (which includes the still small voice in answer to prayer) has helped uncover the truth about the Bessler wheel. The small Orffyrean roller bearing was a technological wonder that is coming back again from God despite the efforts of the devil. This should in no way imply that the devil will not attempt to use it for evil when it does come forth again. AEP - 9 October 2006

Internet Use. There are two big opposing uses of the Internet (1) family history which attempts to gather or put together information about families and (2) pornography (the carrier of the deadly disease, "pernicious permissiveness", see July 2001 Ensign, which disease is I think in opposition to eternal families). I think one use is supported by God and the other is supported by the destroyer. We are all related to God's Son (our relative Jesus the Christ) as I think our totally combined family history would eventually show, assuming it can somehow be eventually completed. There are vast amounts of misinformation out on the Internet (of varying degrees of correctness) related to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (whose members are commonly called the Mormons). The devil wants to confuse people on every aspect of the Church. Massive amounts of assorted misinformation are a strategy by an architect of destruction to confuse or help avoid amounts of correct information. Many times the truth (from God's all knowing perspective) is not popular but does that make it any less truthful? I hope that I am not contributing to the vast body of misinformation. I caution people to check out official sources, if they want official information (and not to settle for old subtle misrepresentations with their consequential misunderstandings). If you were running a business, would it be fair for your customers to learn of the qualities of your products from a representative of your leading competitor (see p. 4, December 2005 Ensign, "Joseph Smith Jr. - Prophet of God, Mighty Servant")? As I learn things, I am trying to fight against old misunderstandings regarding the wheel, Bessler's wheel and gravity but old false teachings have a way of lingering, being recast, and lingering in other forms. AEP - 3 October 2006

If anyone is offended by what I have said or written, please try to forgive my many imperfections and please remember that being offended is a choice we make. No one can make us be offended by the poor thoughtless behavior or intentions of others (which behavior of others we can not control). Please don't cut yourself off from the Church because of any perceived callous behavior of mine. You would only be hurting yourself and those whom you love the most. AEP - 3 Oct 2006
