This thread is dedicated to CLEMENTE FIGUERA 1908 Patent. Please post only information related to the 1908 patent only. if you are pursuing the 1902 patent or later Buforn patents please open another thread on subject matter. please to not clutter up this thread with BS that doesn't pertain. general discussions are fine and slightly off topic is fine also. please do not post other devices that in your mind pertain to this device. when new to this forum i will post as much information as i can on the 1908 patent. i ask you please read all information i have posted before asking questions. this device Figuera built did in fact exist, had a working model presented to the patent office and powered his lights in his home had a 20 kilowatt motor attached and ran his street lights in front of his home. with this in mind anyone running their mouth that says this device does not work has no business being on this forum as does any Trolls and mouthers from OU and EF. with that said welcome to the FigueraMarathonman forum. have any question after reading information please feel free to ask away. please also remember i am new to this forum maintaining business so cut me some slack.Any time someone has a question about how it operates, about a part was made or anything in general towards the Figuera device either click on the persons name of the post and massage them or you can post in the general discussion where everyone can learn from your question. no question will go unanswered. i am here to share what i have learned over the last few years. i ask the members, readers and followers to not post on this thread as that is reserved for builders only. if you have questions or comments either massage or post questions or comments in general discussion thread as this will most likely solve someone else's question also..
This thread is following the Mechanical version of the 1908 patent. electronic switching will be on separate thread.

Thank you so very much. as i have said many years ago that i have dedicated my life to the advancement of this device so if one door closes i'll be damn if i will not open another one. Our Governments and corporate world has literally trashed this whole world, polluted beyond belief just to make a greedy buck at the expense of human lives. what is wrong with this picture. it will take me about a week to upload all my info as to not freak the posting numbers out. below is an un finished Part G core. i do not have the supplies to finish right now so it basically looks ugly duckling. i reconfigured the Inductive Reactance calculations and the winding's on the side of the C are coming off. below that pic of the core is my brush holder which spins on the inductor core. the second brush is for the secondary feed back into part G. the core is larger then it looks in the pic as it is 6 x 6 inches which is a nice flat surface for which to rotate brushes on. it ill get precision ground for flatness. please remember as long as it is a closed core and you can rotate a brush or get it to electronically switch you will be ok.

If you haven't already realized that Clemente Figuera's device can not operate without part G. part G has many function being an active inductor that conserves the potential in the exciting part of the system. this part includes Set N and Set S primaries (Inducers) with party G Inductor Controller. the (induced) includes the secondary and the load. i would suggest to download all research and reread many times as possible to familiarize yourself with the working actions of this device. understanding goes a long way and helps when asking questions.

Here i have constructed an inexpensive winding tree and hand winder. i bought a cheap hand winder from Ebay then hooked a cheap 1/2 inch drill to the same shaft as the coil is on so to not stress the gears for the counter and such. my duel reel winding tree was made from water pipe from the local hardware store. the reels are both spring loaded with a felt lined tensioner which is spring loaded also. as you see from above my coils turned out great. below is my home made winding tree and my winder secured to a sheet of plywood. worked out great.

Here is a shot of my triplet cores after winding in protective black cloth tape. looks really cool along with protecting the winding's.

If anyone is interested in how i assembled my lamination from Temple Transformer i used a jig. i tried to get the company i worked for to make them but that turned out to be a joke. i then built my own with ease with just a few parts from a hardware store. i used two part epoxy thinned with Acetone then swept each lamination with a brush then when finished i put my flat bar in front then applied a C clamp for 24 hrs. it is kinda messy but hey it got the job done with little money. the same can be done with transformer lamination from used transformers and or mots. the cores in the previous post was done like this. I first purchased a square piece of rather thick gauge metal, some Aluminum L, nuts, bolts and washers from the hardware store. i then cut the L longer then my primary cores clamping it to the flat piece of metal edges aligned and secured with a clamp. i then drilled holes then bolted firmly in place moving on to the second piece that was wider then my cores at ruffly 3 1/2 inches giving me much room to play with. clamping into place i used a square to align the two pieces at 90 degrees drilling and bolting into place. i now have a perfect jig to assemble my cores taking a large flat bar at when finished to compress with C clamp 24 hrs. anyone can build this jig.

Hi All, just wanted to share my #4 build of Figuera commutator, it looks like i can only upload 3 photo's at a time, so will do another post with more pics.
Best regards Cornboy.

Ok, so the Comm is 32 bars, the positive feed is slipped through the actual aluminium shaft to the + brush, the negative feed back brush is insulated from the carrier, and has a internal wire to connect it to the AC feedback commutator, which is a 16 bar, with 6 bars for + and -, with 2 spare bars each side. The bearing plate that holds the AC feedback brushes is rotatable for tuning the + and - from the AC secondary feedback.
Any questions please ask. Cornboy.

Nice, this one seems to be much beefier then than last attempts. very nice workmanship Cornboy and i am glad you came aboard. look forward to the test results. i am most confident this revision is the last and will work out fine. i noticed the top commutator connections are not soldered, is that for testing purposes first. just curious. We are changing the world one step at a time. MM

I'm started to build a mechanical version of the device, later I'll rewind core of the electronic version. The core ID 63mm, OD 127mm, Height 93mm. Wire is AWG11 (4mm 2) Wound 76 turns, each second turn will have connection to the commutator.

Hi MM, thanks, the commutator connections are peined or punched over the wire just like in a electric motor.
Regards Cornboy.

Hi All, just wanted to share my #4 build of Figuera commutator, it looks like i can only upload 3 photo's at a time, so will do another post with more pics. Best regards Cornboy. Hey Cornboy, what wire size you are using between commutator pins? I'm thinking about this in my commutator, also I'm thinking about wire size to a part G form commutator. What wire you are using on a part G? I plan to use AWG18 from a commutator to a part G and I already have AWG11 on a part G. Thanks, creasysee

Hi Creasysee, on my comm i used 1.5mm to link opposite pins, and because it is only a short distance from G, the resistance, i used the same 1.5mm.
My magnetic resistance, to start with, will be a toroid, and will have around 80 turns of 2.0mm, which will cover around 240 Degrees.
Will post photo when i finish it.
All the best, Cornboy.
