nice complisult. Too bad its rooted in fiction.Wow. I'll bet nobody ever thought about using counterweights on an elevator. You're so smart.

My use of counterweights is original. I understand they've used counterweights before. It's the gear system involved with the OP that I keep secret.Commercial Elevator Counterweights | Mars Metal Specialty Casting Division
New elevator construction is done when the end user wants or needs to increase an existing elevator’s capacity, it requires a new counterweight.
Experiment 2: Huygens Engine
Christiaan Huygens designed a blueprint for a gunpowder-powered piston in a cylinder 300 years ago. In Huygens' design, blackpowder ignites inside the chamber and forces air out one-way valves. The resulting vacuum sucks the piston down. The design was never actually realized by Huygens.
Despite upping the amount of powder from 15 to 20 grains, they weren't able to generate vacuum power. Their seal and one-way valves weren't tight enough -- the design was a bust. It seemed unlikely to the MythBusters that the Huygens design could have been built in Huygens' time.
When I issued at the patent office there was a guys patent from 1987 that he wanted to use an explosions vacuum to draw the water out of an underwater storage 'shed', he would then close the door to the shed when the vacuum sucked out all the water.The Mythbusters tried and failed apparently with instructions which I've noticed they seldom follow well so no surprise there.
Weird. Given this "shed" is "underwater" with its door open, any vacuum would just suck water in the door as fast as it pulled it out elsewhere.When I issued at the patent office there was a guys patent from 1987 that he wanted to use an explosions vacuum to draw the water out of an underwater storage 'shed', he would then close the door to the shed when the vacuum sucked out all the water.
It's more of a perpetual motion moachine so it doesn't give out energy but run on very little.Is this anything like the Dam that doesnt back up a river?
I don't know where you get your power Nuts. If you are so powerfully smart do something I can't do, invent a pulley system instead of gears for the OP.Ever elevated your johnson with a lever, trevor?
Raised your butt with a block and tackle from Vevor, trevor?
Not bad....you would need some form of control over the weight transfer.Here's an idea for using weight to store the energy of the elevator. It could work on a small scale like a wheelchair lift instead of a lot of wood building a ramp you could just build a weight lift that can take weather with some bricks.

He's waiting to think of an insuliment.weight elevator in the OP could be 90+% efficient as opposed to the 60-70% eff from a generator. Would also allow people to leave during blackouts. I always like the idea of using it as a wheelchair lift for front porches rather then big ramps. Anything to say Grumblebutts? or is this one of my buttier ideas?
Smart enough not to try and reinvent the wheel, trevor.I don't know where you get your power Nuts. If you are so powerfully smart do something I can't do, invent a pulley system instead of gears for the OP.
