experimentos con imanes: Magnetic Levitation on a Pole – Exp

In the workshop I spent a couple hours messing with magnets on a pole trying to get stable magnetic levitation. Got some push and pull action going, stacked up some discs, and learned that flat orientation beats wobble every time.

Key takeaways

• Mixing magnet discs lets you test different push and pull combinations within the same setup
• Tilting causes imbalance while some wobble can self-balance during magnetic levitation
• Keeping the stack flat at the bottom gives the best stability for permanent magnet levitation
• This is early headway on a simple pole-based levitation rig using only permanent magnets

I finally got some real headway on magnetic levitation using a simple pole and stacked discs. After a couple hours of tinkering I started seeing consistent push and pull forces that let the magnets float and balance.

Bench notes: Used a mix of magnet discs that I made up so I could swap polarities easily. The setup runs inside a basic paradigm so results stay easy to categorize. When the stack gets down low it likes to stay flat — any tilt throws it off fast.

Wobble happens but it often settles itself out. That's the difference between a little shake and a bad lean. I still need to give the full rundown on exactly which discs I used and the pole dimensions, but the raw footage shows the behavior pretty clearly.

If you're into hands-on experiments this one is pure workshop curiosity. No fancy electronics, just magnets fighting and finding balance on a pole. Come watch the push, the pull, and the moments it almost levitates clean.
