Genius! Magnets are SO useful! I once fixed my car's breaking light using 6 stacked magnets! Anyways, thank you, I just used your idea with my own flag with just using two pair of magnets, they were sufficiently heavy for the flag and so there is no fear of two sets of magnets sticking to one another

I use to use magnets but the wind kept knocking it off when it hit the top of the fence. Makes noise when it hits too. So I just got a longer pole with rotating rings and it no longer furls over the fence and gets stuck. Rotates nicely and never tangles. If it does tangle the next blast of wind fixes it.

Hi Keith, I'm trying to solve the same problem and found your video. Is there a reason you used magnets? Would any other metallic item work the same? I'm trying to understand if the magnetic property works here, or just that the magnets were the right size and provided enough weight to keep the flag from furling. Thanks.

..until a real high winds blows in, and those magnets turn into flying shrapnel! ..and God forbid if anyone is walking by the flag when that really high wind blows in! People don't understand (until it's too late), the velocity of these weights flying through the air, and the damage they can do to people and structures! lol For this to really work, you would first want the flag always away from people and structures. Then you would have to calculate (in pounds) the worst wind pressure in the area which you live, and figure out how many pounds of strength your magnets would have to be, to stay together, and not fly off the flag during those higher wind bursts of pressure. But more importantly, are the magnets flying through the air on the flag! Anyone hit by these could seriously lose an eye or worse! It would definitely puncture vinyl siding ..and dent aluminum siding!

Ross Johnston sorry that happened to you. I believe there’s certain considerations that must be evaluated before doing this. The vicinity of your car during high winds in relation to the flag, the strength of the magnets vs wind strength, etc.. it’s definitely something each person will need to test based on their location. Again, sorry the video wasn’t more helpful and sorry you had a negative experience.

First of all: Thanks for sharing what worked to 'color' the magnets and what *didn't* work. I don't have the red tape, and certainly would have defaulted to the paint that I have.... Second: Thanks for discussing the placement of the magnets. Again, what worked and what didn't. This is very helpful.
