LEVITRON Levitating Spinning Top | How to make a Levitron from scratch | Magnetic levitation
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hey everyone! In this video I show you all how to make your very own amazing Levitron hovering spinning top at home. This experiment is very hard to get right, and takes a lot of patience, but the end results are very pleasing, and you can even impress your friends! I advise you to buy your big base ring magnet, not online, but get it from a large broken speaker (Which is where I got mine from) or a microwave, etc...
I hope you enjoyed watching this video, and be sure to give this experiment a try :)

Ha, as soon as the video started I was like, "Trippy!"
in one of the temples in India we have this type of tech shivling (a cylindrical structure) used to rotate like this using magnets but the twist is it was built probably 2000 years back and massive size

This is how the earth is station with presice accuracy that that God said it's foundation will never move meaning of it axis drifted off its course. Its magnetic field because the earth is full of magnet. That how the earth spins around to get the seasons. It hangs on nothing. Which is magnetic. Excellent physics explained.

If you need a magnet go for a speaker cos it's easier than taking apart a microwave. If you do take a magnet from a MW be careful not to break the ceramic bits on the end of the magnetron (the bit that makes the actual microwaves) because they are toxic and horrible and can cause sickness. Watch a microwave teardown vid to learn how. If you go for a speaker magnet be careful not to break the magnet while taking it out. It's easily done. And remember, magnets are FUN.

Hi, yep, speakers are usually the preferred option when it comes to seeking for a large ferrite magnet. I have a microwave magnetron which contains a magnet, though now I may not consider opening one up just to get a magnet. Safety first!

Make the top piece perfectly balanced made on a lathe. Then spin it in a vacuum chamber, suck all the air out and theoretically it should spin almost forever minus the incomplete vacuum wich is impossible to make a perfect vacuum. Maybe some other forces too will slow it down that I don't know of.

Good tip! The main piece with the rounded bottom could be made out of brass or another non-magnetic metal and is the piece where all the magnet and washers slide onto.
Video rất thú vị bạn ơi
Great video! I am trying this for a project. I have one question. Why should the diameter of the magnet in the spinning top be smaller than that of the base?
@MaxImagination
Жыл бұрын
Hi, Rein. Thanks for your comment! The hole in the top magnet must be small to suit the diameter of the 4mm wooden rod. A better way to rephrase what you meant is the Inner diameter of the base magnet must be a bit larger than the Outer diameter of the top magnet as this is the physical aspect that keeps the spinning top hovering in place, creating the magnetic "donut effect". Same as a golf ball rolls into a hole larger than its diameter with ease rather than rolling over the hole. Cheers.

Je pense qu'il faudrait associer cette"technologie" avec celle du moteur magnétique dit " a énergie libre" on éviterait les frottements et les problèmes de surchauffe et de vibrations ou encore mieux en utilisant la lévitation quantique mais dans ce cas il faut refroidir le supra conducteur et donc produire de l'hydrogène liquide ce qui va demander de l'énergie
Hi there! Really wanted to try and make this. Can you please share where to get the spacers as shown in video? Looks like there were 2 different kinds you used for spacers. And the red bearing covers. Are those the same as the washers? The measurements of each material you used? Thank you so much!

Hi there. The washers you may need will most likely vary, it depends on how strong of a magnetic repulsion you're getting. Choose something rather light, such as aluminum or tin washers. Also, the biggest and bottom washer is a tambourine disc. Cheers!
