Magnets don’t work when they’re hot. Running something like this will slowly build up heat in the magnets. They will eventually stop working.

Perpetual motion doesn’t exist. Full stop. That’s just how physics works. Nothing lasts forever. You could theoretically design a machine that moves for a very long time, but not forever. It also couldn’t do anything besides spin. If you tried to get it to actually do work it would just stop embarrassingly quick.

My dad was really into this sort of thing when I was younger. Despite how he thinks he’s a genius despite never getting *any* education, it never worked at all. Not even a little bit.
