Not completely true about not being able to create more energy then what is being input. yes you cant create more energy but if the method of input is continual and doesnt lose energy wouldnt anything in excess of that initial amount of energy be more then the energy that is being input? Sorry if im not the most descriptive or knowledgeable but i am still intelligent and if i misunderstood what you were saying please inform me.
all Magnets have at one time been subjected to an electric Charge so their energy does not come from Nowhere.

That's true, but once they are magnetized that energy lasts a very long time and it doesn't fade away as it is used. It fades away with time, think about it. If I use a magnet to lift up a metal object, the magnetic energy used to pick up the piece of metal isn't drained from the magnet, the magnet could pick that same piece of metal up hundreds of times and it wont be any weaker. Well it will be slightly weaker, because it takes time to do the lifting. But you are right, magnets do not provide an endless supply of energy, they do become weaker and weaker over time until they aren't useful anymore. But the point is, they last a really long time whilst providing a substantially strong force, and if one were to figure out a way to use that force in a clever way, such as the way a V-Gate works, then one could harness the force of magnetism to provide a substantial amount of power, much more than the energy required to charge the magnet.
If it could, it would have been done.

so let me understand this my friend!! you!!! want free energy !!!!... from a simple! easy! to build machine. lmfao the world really has gotten fat n lazy! not to sound like a troll ma man!! but if it was that simple the world would be a happier better place with no idiots in control and no war!! ... well maybe war with religion still hanging around but still!!
good luck!!
I would use something thats not metal
To extend this activity I gave her a metal tin (empty Milo tin) so that she could build in a different way and discover the magnetic property of the metal. She noted that the magnets stuck to the tin, but not to the mat.
