Check out the magnets for sale on the following site;

http://www.unitednuclear.com/magnets.htm

I especially like the warning that comes with the last one on the page. How on earth can they send that to you without taking out half of Royal Mail?

If you really need an unbelievably powerful magnet, here it is.
Uses include magnetic steering of nuclear particles in homemade accelerators, magnetic beam amplifiers, etc.
Well, doesn't everyone have a particle accelerator in their cellar or garage? I knocked mine up from an old washer and a few rolls of tin foil from Tesco.

I bet the various world security services would be very interested in their customer list

Loose metallic objects and other magnets may become airborne and fly considerable distances - and at great speed - to attach themselves to this magnet.

I can see the thread titles now...

Help - new magnet welded to gran
I didn't realise she'd had it replaced...

Help - accident on first date
It was the underwiring. Will the police drop the charges?

The possibilities are endless

do you model yourself on McGuyver or BA Baracus then?

i believe this website is frequented for supplies by members of the TOTSE (google if you dont know) community, lots of things go on in that forum which are slightly dubious.... home made ballistics, and the like...
