I named this one wrong, lol, it's not washers, it's pieces of steel.

Nice videos!
It's interesting that the rings don't want to be aligned on top of each other

And at the end of the second video the metal pieces are swinging

Have you tried MagnaView Film to se the polarity of the ring magnets?
Robert used these in his New Magnetism videos:

Thanks! I have not. But I want too! A while back I requested a free sample of magnaview film, but it never came

Soon here I'm hoping to earn enough to buy some more stuff for experiments but @ the moment I gotta pay bills, lol. I'm so excited!

4 element, 2(maybe 3, but I think it was sitting on the chamfered edge) balanced system. With magneview

Balancing...lol
Just bar magnets arranged and held together by aluminum tape.
