Good points

This has been my experience with some of the tinkering I have done with my Forcefield magnets. These magnets are pretty strong and once they reach the point where they will support the weight, they are fairly resistant to any changes in movement (very little friction at the posts would help this some though).

Having experimented with many other things like minimally inflated inner tube suspension systems, I had trouble getting my magnets to approach this kind of a low frequency rocking type motion. Maybe it requires a very closely matched magnet strength to component weight, etc.. I wonder myself if it really is a viable concept - but it is kind of fun to play with.
