I find it hard to believe that no-one has died yet when playing with these "toys". Not that I know of anyway.
I've always been facinated by strong magnets, but haven't actually bought any (YET  ). I do have the website on my favourites though and it's just a matter of time when I make my first purchase.
What I fear is that eventually there's going to be restrictions to buy the stuff and that's understandable but sad. All sorts of interesting, even useful, devices can be made with these.
Regards
Sam |
