This is a very interesting array designed by David Lapointe. But is it really a over-unity device or some type of linear drive?
Read Here for More Information:
-I am not claiming this is a over-unity device however the magnet will shoot through many arrays without stopping
-The original array was designed by David Lapointe & I modified it to decrease printing time and fit pex pipe
-My estimate for loop size is based on maximum curvature before a decrease in magnet's velocity
-Build and test at your own risk
Materials Used:
-PLA Filament(5-6 hours) on fdm
-3/8" x 1/4" 40 N52 Magnets per array @ 5920 Gauss

(You can use N40 Grade but I don't recommend anything less)
-1/2" Pex Tubing
-BNTECHGO 24 AWG Magnet Wire
Fire (7) 3/8" magnets together with north facing first into the open end of the array. All the arrays must be facing the same direction. Spacing is at 62mm from flat end to open end of next array.
