Magnets

Coriolanus · 2010-11-24 16:29:21

Anyone know where to buy a strong magnet. I remember ones we used to use in school, about the size of a box of data, just a block shape. That would be perfect but any ideas at all are welcome.

What would be the purpose of a large magnet? I suspect pranks!

Nah. I work in a tailors, so theres pins, studs etc everywhere all the time. I want one for the work table that I can literally throw stuff at and have them stick and another one to tape to a pole or something to pick up off the floor.
