I think part of the problem is also how shiny your copper is, have you considered painting the outside black? Similar to chicken wire when you take the glare away it’s easier to see things beyond

Sir Bogan :
I think due to the gaps in the copper I believe it is interfering with the magnetic fields. Try it without any gaps and make it smoother on the inside and the outside. Also try it with the copper sphere rotating on both the y and x axis

some rando :
The floating depends on a difference in rotational speed between the cage and the magnet. But that force will create magnetic drag on the magnet and make it rotate, which will then reduce the rotation speed difference, which will make the magnet drop again. I don't think it will work unless you can keep the magnet from rotating.

SmackMyBones :
seems to me like its mostly a mechanical issue. look at the short arm of the spindle; there's too much play as it rotates and it transfers that play into the magnet

Brian Schulte :
Given how the magnetic fields work and are shaped I don't think the honeycomb design of the copper is optimal. I think that is the main problem.

kyle :
what will happen if you had a stationed magnet above and have the axel rotating at a 45° angle?
the stationed magnet should be just outside the magnet field so that when the rotating ball magnet gets lifted ever so slightly it then uses the above stationed magnet as aid in keeping it in the centre.

Could you not smooth out the interior so it’s not banging around

See if you can measure any electricity . Looks like a very basic generator. Maybe ground it somehow to at least minimize any eddy currents being generated.

The inside of the hex shaped sphere seems to be kicking the magnet as it rotates

Try it without the gaps in it. I know that was the point, but I bet you'd be able to hear if it was floating or not. You could add gaps back in until it breaks or use another cool way to view the magnet.

would making the inside of the cooper frame rounded and taking the edges off help at all

obviously the shape of the copper dome is rigid. If you use a much rounder dome. 💯

Adjust the strobe to a different speed so that it matches the copper. This will allow you to see inside better
