Thread: could this be an stable inverted pendulum?

as you can see as it leans the weights hanging in cables wraps and unwraps in the double cones

but leaning means actually rising more one weight than lowering the other, a cog raise

so it just shouldnt lean since it would imply raising the cog

do you think it can work?

Not the way you have it drawn, where is the pivot point for the cones?
Not to mention the horrendous friction losses.
