i created a levitating aluminum model replica of the Bob Lazar 'Sport Model'
page: 1share:
hey guys,
i am currently working with a French inventor who invented electromagnetic static levitation to construct a replica of the famous Bob Lazar 'Sport Model' craft. the craft is made from solid aluminum which i had machined to the exact specifications of the Testors kit.
currently - the prototype is 5" diameter and 1.5" tall. i am working on my options to best apply the black 'port holes' and ring. the prototype silently hovers .75" and holds approximated 14oz. but the new base i am having built will be able to hold 11 POUNDS at a hover height of 2.5". i believe i will make an 6-8" disc for the final piece.
a new system has been developed so that the levitating magnet platform has LEDs that are powered by induction technology, so i am thinking that my next model will be a lit version the 'TR-3B' because i believe that that craft is ours and i think these 2 best represent their respective class of craft (even if they've been stylized by human artists).
what do you guys think?

excellent.
very nice manufactured. you could produce in series and sell them.

Good work dude, that looks like a neat little "toy".
love the pictures too, looks nice and shiney, and we all know that shiney things make everything all better.

Interesting - Im 'assuming' that they need to be over that magnetic board to hover like that?
this is wonderful, was only thinking about anti-grav yesterday (is it anti-grav?)
do have videos, or anything that shows this isn't just clever trickery with magnets?
(always skeptical with stuff I read)

Cool , give us a shout when you've got the full sized model working ....lets go explore
Have to admit i'm jealous, would love to have that in my living room. Very nice work
that is amazing. i wish i had one of those, would also make a great conversation piece too.
I wish you worked at NASA. They could use one of those displays on every desk there, for proper inspiration.

Excellent work.
It is one of the more impressive things I've seen on ATS lately.

I'm willing to pay for that, i mean it.
Let me know when you start selling
Thats very cool, well done.

So I have a magnet toy that hovers the same distance. Why is yours any different than my floating golf bal?

I don't see him claim that it is different.
It's just much better looking than some fancy ball imo.
