Hello Sir;

I am trying to build a 3D levitation system in which you can suspend anything irrespective of outter body position. But the main problem I have been facing is the huge currents consumption.

Do you have idea how to control current consumption (with series resistance) and coils heating problem.

Ive always wondered how complicated it would be to create a levitation system. It would be fun to see the internals on that. [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-27cf2c4f-f7f8-4fa9-a6bc-e62ebca86d7c/5074.contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

Hi Doug,

A nice mixture of cute and technical. I am concerned about Sparky's brain implant though.

Hi Doug,

Happy New Year to you as well - great project [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-27cf2c4f-f7f8-4fa9-a6bc-e62ebca86d7c/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

Do you need any feedback with a system like that (where I assume you are repelling the permanent magnet in the item's base by an electromagnet from underneath) to stop it getting flung off sideways ?

Cute Doug! When we should expect this chick grows? I want to see how you solve the problem to make eggs [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-27cf2c4f-f7f8-4fa9-a6bc-e62ebca86d7c/contentimage_5F00_2516.png:16:16]
