I need to know how many magnets that is

This is the sickest thing I’ve ever seen

Your videos are always impressive

so creative, you deserve more subscribers:)

Found a way to build it. There’s a video that shows 7 different spherical shapes that includes an icosahedron, and I made that but I made the pentagon units the way the following ball shape makes them (soccer ball). From there you leave the single holes open and then layer the triangles onto the non-pentagon faces

Where can I buy these anymore?! 😭

Will this work with 216 triumph set?

This is incredible!

It's a tutorial! Slow down and explain what you're doing. You know, with your voice.

What is he doing during that first move with the two hexagons? I can't see because his hands are hiding it.

I couldn't hear a word you said.

What happens after you’re done making them? Do you smash them?

This is insane

I know you don't comment or upload anymore, Mathne. I wonder if some day you'll be back and find Ive built many of your shapes using the 2.5mm compliance magnets. Anyway does Mathne, or anyone still watching these videos see how many sub units there are? I havent made the subunits before, but Ive watched the tutorial, and I know the math on how many magnets are required for various edge lengths of each subunit. I have about 7,000 magnets and am wondering if it would be possible to build this or scale it down and build it. May have to mess with the subunits and see what sizes feel possible to build with the 2.5mm diameter magnets I have.

Amazing build! It is a little flimsy at first, but gets stronger as you go on. I love doing your builds whenever i am bored. Thank you. I just wish you still made videos. You do amazing things.

Oh how I wish you had narrated this. Your step by steps are always helpful!

how many magnets were used for each layer?

At the end when he shows how it spins, my jaw dropped so much! That was so unexpected, and I didn’t know magnets could make this happen! Can’t wait to try!

To anyone who has polarity issues, allow me to expand on his ideas. First of all, you never should reverse the direction of the magnet line you use. The polarity doesn’t flip between pieces. At one point, he says to make all four of the tetrahedra with the same polarity in the base, but then later he says to make two with one polarity and two with the other. The first statement is true, and all four should match. Regarding the two and two, here is my suggestion. Build all four exactly the same way as the one he shows, but when it is time to add those two missing edges, wait until all four are ready. Align the magnets as he demonstrates, but pay attention when you get to the second missing edge. The polarity should be reverse compared to the first. What I did is I kept the magnets facing the same direction, even though it didn’t make sense, and it worked fine. If you do this, the polarity difference depends on whether you add three magnets to the left side vertex or the right side. It is possible that you are actually supposed to reverse the line of magnets for two and not for the others, but I haven’t tried this yet. One thing that helped a lot with the assembly step was using a line of magnets to check the polarity of each edge before trying to connect them. You take a line of any size you want and compare it to the three edges that are touching the top corner. There should be two of one polarity and one of the other. Then, make sure the next piece matches each of the connections. In other words, if you were to lay a line across both pieces, it should line up the same way on both sides. After my first attempt at this shape ended in failure, I thought it might be a good idea to clarify for anyone else who may have the same troubles. Hope this helps you if you needed it

The US Government is trying to ban magnets again. All magnet fans and youtubers must unite! SPREAD THE MESSAGE #LegalizeMagnets

#LegalizeMagnets The CPSC is starting a new magnet prohibition! Don't let the world of high powered magnet art sleepwalk into oblivion. Spread the word!

Hey, Do you know the CPSC is starting a new magnet prohibition! Don't let the world of high-powered magnet art sleepwalk into oblivion. Spread the word! #LegalizeMagnets

The US Feds are trying to BAN magnet balls, even for adults. If you like recreational magnets, now's your chance to say something. Make sure magnet fans know before it's too late, pass it on. #LegalizeMagnets

Sick!!!

tricky to replicated with 3mm magnet balls. Will try with 5mm once I get them

I don’t even know how to start. I’m so confused

We miss you

How many magnets do you need to make this?

this is super cool, its so simple yet so cool looking and satisfying to make

Hey, just out of curiosity, do u still make things with magnets?

All i have is the set of 512 2.5mm set of speks, and i somehow managed to actually make this after lots of trial and error, although there was only enough for like 5 of the rings and even when I finally made it, it was hard to handle it without messing it up cuz of how small it was lol. But still proud of myself cuz its so hard to make it with those tiny balls

Trop bon! Vous êtes l'Albert Einstein des billes magnétiques!

This looks HEAVY

this one took me ages to make, love the challenge, it is so worth it! especially the satisfaction afterward. thank you so much

How many magnets do i need, for this to be possible: 216 or 432 or 864.

have you found a good brand of magnetic balls that will last long? We have several sets and all of them are losing the outside layer.

Found a Crayola marker cap works perfectly for this. How do you come up w/ something like this? Just messing around? Super clever.

Where's the Rod of Asclepius part?

How tf do u make it

I added a few more layers to it and it looks great! Thank you!

is those 5 mm it look like it

TUTORIAL: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKCZmJ6nnJZpbMk Mathnetism, if you don't want me to post this tutorial, just tell me.

Is it all right if I post a tutorial on this? A lot of people seem confused about it.

so sad you not posting anymore

Enough of the foreplay. How did you make it?

PLEASE MAKE TUTORIAL
