More words. "Fiddling" indeed. Where's the meat? Where's the bun? The
first posting has demonstrated there's neither, This is a classic "and
then magic happens" just before a result is claimed.
A Skunkworks is needed, The odor is already here.
I will know sooner or later if the part that matters is feasibe or not
and give introduction here.
Putting model into SolidWorks.

Can't you at least post a drawing or something before then?
Personally I think what you're really needing is anti-grav drive.
There was a German guy working on the theory of it. Burkhard Heim was
his name. He died, though, before completing his work. But here's a
start:

Now you have to be able to read German and most physicists don't
really grasp his mathematics and system of physics, but you'd probably
make pretty good progress once you had the anti-grav drive part down
pat. The rest should be a piece of cake.
Anyway the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics awarded
a prize for a paper on the concept:

New Scientist mentions Sandia Labs and the US Military looking into it
though, so you may simply be too late (alas!).
Still, there may be a homebuilt market for similar technology, so your
efforts might not be entirely wasted.
THe above type of concept is what we would need in order to fly to other
planets and the stars on a routine basis. It certainly piques the
imagination!
