My favorite KZbin channel of all time. Years ago in high school and college I followed your tutorials to build all of the amazing designs. With the concepts I learned from this channel I’ve been able to make a bunch of my own creations. But I’m nowhere near as creative or talented as you. Now that I’m out of school and have a career that gives me plenty of expendable income I swear I would donate a grand to you right off the bat if you ever became active again. That’s like bare minimum value I feel Ive gotten from these videos. Literally hundreds of hours of enjoyable time building amazing structures.

What sphere did you use for the base? When adding the flat 26 long strips, the 3 stack of pentagons don't line up with where the Icosahedron pieces should go. The shape ends up working, but some spots where the icosahedron spots meet don't line up under the 3 stack pentagons. The first cage icosahedron still worked but I had to remove the pentagon supports in some areas.

Hey sir I know you haven't posted content in awhile I was just wondering if you knew of anywhere that I could still get my hands on the 5mm old school magnets? I only was able to get a small number of the actual zen magnets back in the day and now I have about 9k of the micromagnets. As I'm sure you're aware the 5mm zen magnets are far better to use for someone seriously into this hobby, the micromagnets at 2.5 aren't as stable and much harder to build with. I'm making due but I would really LOVE to get my hands on a decent number of some 5mm ones.

Awesome scuplture ! Though, it looks like it's the intersection of a dodecahedron, an icosahedron, and a kind of stellation of the icosahedron but not quite exactly (though this one is really close to a real stellated dodecahedron). I see no deltoidal hexacontahedron here... I don't know if you mixed up the names or something...

Se podra hacer con los micromagnets?😢

Are any one else's magnets losing strength?

My magnets are broken.

You said colored. Cancelled. J/k

This is 11 years old

Jwdl wccao

😮 wow

Been so long since I've watched yt again... glad to be back

So it's now 2022 and idk if anyone will reply but it's hard to get these now and so ive bought all I can and can only come up with 6160 is there any way I can still build something like this with less?

Rhombicosidodecahedron

You know if you stop explaining and play a cool music instead and use Fast forward in boring repeating steps, you have satisfying video

Using all of the magnetic balls from different companies that made and sells them lol

Definite, you should do a tutorial of this.

I remember wondering about Magnenaut’s identity back around 2013.

Have you had any that were harder to crush than others? Both in terms of the effort you put into building it and physically difficult to crush.

This is fascinating

Watchout! 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

very good tutorial i like it #LegalizeMagnets

------ The US Government is trying to ban magnets again. All magnet fans and youtubers must unite! SPREAD THE MESSAGE #LegalizeMagnets ✌️👍👍 ID#6

Bonjour. super tutoriel. j'ai enfin réussi à finir cette très belle figure. Merci

Interesting

Thank you for the inspiration 🙂

Rhombicosidodecahedron video was great

3:41 it make it doom star good retreatman

me only have 2000 magnets

ya

Hello. Your videos are pretty cool, but I just couldn’t make the triangles with the 17x2 or 18x3 or 18x2 because the edges keep lifting and/or coming off and not aligning with the rest of the shape. Another thing is I have no idea how to “change” the polarity. How is that done?

i want to know how to make it

wow - like it

Hi I'm from 2020

I DONT HAVE THAT ENOGOFH

I made hearts other things but I don't know how you are bending the double 24 ring over to 3 legs it's fucking me off

Thanks again for another great tutorial.

my brain cannot handl- *static*

I completed the tutorial!!!! It took 3 trys flipping it but 4th try was successful. Thanks for the awesome tutorial hope to see more.

Waiting for some new tutorials. I have 9072 magnets now.🙂

Husband just finished this shape. Great tutorial Magnenaut can't wait to see another. Thanks.

Can't wait to see more of your tutorials.

wtf is this and why i am watching it ?

Hi I'm Kristi's husband. Wanted to thank you for all the tutorials I've learned alot from them and enjoy them very much. Hope to see see more they are entertaining and interesting. Take care and stay safe.

My husband likes all your tutorials and builds most of them. He has just over 9 thousand magnets now. They are a mix of bucky balls, neo magnets by zen, magnicube, and sky magnets. All of them are 5 mm and seem to have enough strength to complete the shapes he finds interesting. Thanks for all your tutorials and hope to see more of them. Take care and stay safe.
