http://www.unitednuclear.com/magnets.htm Check out the Supermagnets: "If carrying one into another room, carefully plan the route you will be taking. Computers & monitors will be affected in an entire room. Loose metallic objects and other magnets may become airborne and fly considerable distances - and at great speed - to attach themselves to this magnet."..."Take Note: Two of the 3" x 1" disc magnets can very easily break your arm if they get out of control." Sooooo tempting to get one of the smaller ones to play with, trouble is I think the only place I could use it without ballsing something up is the garden.
Ahhh the wonders of digg, but yea that site looks awesome. If you go to the main page they actually sell uranium ore and other radioactive goodies. I would love to buy one of those huge magnets if i wasnt afraid of getting near anything metal. I mean, alot of door frames are made out of metal, what happens if you walk through one?
I'm sure those tiny one's are pretty safe to play with. But those 2"x1" supermagnet disk, thats what its all about! Imagine the possibility's. PS: Better keep this from a certain forum member, or he will take it to a electronics store and destroy a bunch of CRT Monitors and TV's. (J/K here, but too tempting aswell ) L
I saw a video of that liquid magnet stuff... very cool. It'd be fun to pick up some of those things. You could probably crack a skull with those 3"DIA ones... I still want to try to make some sort of perpetual motion device with magnets. Of course the laws of existance say I can't, but as if I care.
Can you get them shipped to the UK because it states "We can only ship these magnets by ground UPS - they cannot be shipped via air as it will interfere with the aircraft's navigational equipment" LOOOL I also like this bit "If you or someone in your household has a PACEMAKER or another electronic surgical implant, don't even think of ordering these items"
Roffle! Quality. That fluid magnet looks so incredible as well. COOOoooooolll It's like warping back to the 1930s where people used to put radioisotopes into toothpaste. They also provide chemicals for all your explosive needs.
ive got 2 x 1/8" Dia x 1/16th" Thick NdFeB Disc Magnet, Grade N40 at home, and they are really powerful, if you put them together they are hard to get apart, and you can put one on the bouuom of your arm and one on the top and they will stay there. and ive fubarded a couple of old monitors with them.
I work at the Science Center in Pittsburgh and we have a FerroFluid which is the same as that MagnaView Fluid. Its so cool. In fact we mixed some with paint and painted a conference room--now we can hang stuff on the walls!
Ferrofluid = win I really want one of those now; they make my smaller neodymium ones look rather weedy.
