The Halbach Array is setting up magnets in a certain way
so that you only get attraction on one side of the magnet.
After playing with the Tri-Force Gates I decided to have a
go with a few Halbach Arrays today and thought I would try them with a Tri-Force
Roller.
Here is a video showing what happened:

Next I wanted to make them longer by joining arrays
together as below
Then Decided to make some longer lengths first, so just
ordered 80 * 1/4inch cubes and I will make a couple of long lengths that should
come out at just 200mm.
It will be interesting too see if it performs as good as the Tri-Force gate on
longer lengths.
So here is the Video

PLEASE NOTE.
Sorry I am not posting the results of my experiments as
this would take too much time.
But when I have something I can shout about and that works 100%, then be assured
I will post an update.
For now this is just a Blog as such of what I am working on.
