    My wife and I fell out a few years back but we both loved magnets! In the end it was the magnets that brought us back together..

    I love magnets. Wonder how I'm ever going to look at my electronics without wanting to rip them apart now?

      Remember how much they will cost to replace them after you tear them apart - that should stop you doing it... :)

      I don´t know about you, but I usually find old hard drives in flea markets, for like 5 dollars, I have like 4 pairs of neodymium magnets at home :P

    Holy CRAP!!! These little buggers are frickin' strong! I accidentally got them together (flat side to flat side), and it took a pair of RoboGrip pliers, a screwdriver, a mallet, and 10 minutes to separate them! I made a box to hold them out of an old ring box (with the foam in it) and wrote a "KEEP AWAY FROM ELECTRONICS" note on it! So powerful!

    Back when i was around 16 or 17 i randomly took apart a big speaker and found a really powerful magnet. had no clue what to do with it at the time but now it holds around 45 takeaway menus to my fridge its great. haha

    It's probably best to warn people that it isn't hard to seriously injure oneself with strong magnets. a pair of them can cause all sorts of crushing injuries to digits or even limbs in severe cases. magnet pairs that provide enough force to cause major tissue damage can be found in some more modern computer electronics
    A good rule of thumb is that if you need special tools to take them apart, be very, very careful about when and where they come back together. A friend of a friend was taking apart a big 2TB hard drive, and once he'd pried the magnets apart, he put one in each pocket. Those magnets found their way back together relatively quickly... apparently it did not end well.

      @zaq1320 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oliver Rapp I don't know exactly what happened, I was just recounting an anecdote someone else told me (I'm not in contact with them any more, unfortunately) All he said was that the guy put a magnet in each pocket, and they found their way back together. He said "You can imagine what happened", making a gesture inwards from his hips. I'm not sure if the guy just had some bruising, something more serious like a fracture or worse. Sorry I can't be of more help.
      A quick google search can lead you to examples of people getting fingers and such crushed by strong magnets which sometimes flew distances of around 50cm before they found their mark.

    • @ThemmeFataleKiva
      @ThemmeFataleKiva 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think that the magnets in the hard-drive are used kinda like brakes, but I'm not sure. As for the one in the speakers, there's an electromagnet that has a rapid electric pulse depending on what's being played, the electromagnet will turn on and off attracting & repelling the neodymium magnet and producing vibrations, which we perceive as sound.

      @clarkquinten 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is a solvent found in hardware stores and it works pretty good at breaking down cured adhesives and even two part epoxies. Most of the speaker magnets I see are attached via some sort of glue.
