Do you use superglue to glue the magnet to the plastic?

[@MathSciTutor]

Not if I can get a tight fit - which I usually do. Superglue can't handle any impact without losing it bond and plastic is hard to bond to as well as the nickel plating on the magnets.:). I am not against it - I just want to use it in the right application. Great question.

[@EgonSorensen]

1:52 - Printing a wedding ring and mounting magnets inside - nickel allergy isn't a fun thing, so be sure to get magnets without nickel. It might not be an issue now, it sure can/will be later - Nickel allergy affects about 10% of the people in the US There is no cure for nickel allergy. The symptoms of nickel allergy can be mild, or severe enough to be disabling. They include red skin, itching or burning sensations, blisters, cracked skin and, in severe cases, swelling and spread beyond the site(s) of initial contacts. A severe form of nickel allergy called systemic nickel allergy syndrome can also cause headaches, fatigue, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Definitely - I have encountered that as well. You could easily print the ring so that you press the magnets into the outside of the ring and the inside would just be plastic from the 3D printer.:)

[@EgonSorensen]

@@SuperMagnetMan - or, one can get gold plated magnets. I see it is common to add an extra layer using an electrolytic based process, so it's Ni-Cu-Ni-Au (Nickel-Copper-Nickel-Gold) Don't be cheap, get a good layer - it also protects the neodymium, iron & boron mixture from air/moisture, so the magnet itself doesn't swell up, when it's 'skin' is broken :ø)

[@SuperMagnetMan]

@@EgonSorensen Yes in the past we have carried a lot of gold plated magnets for the jewelry customers. Now we tend to get them for special orders. Chrome plating is also a good way to get around the nickel allergy. I have also wondered how it would be if you simply bought nickel plated and then coated the magnet with something like car wax. I don't have the allergy so I can't test it:)

[@EgonSorensen]

@@SuperMagnetMan Chrome seems like a great option, also one can get DIY chrome (silver and gold) plating kits on ebay, etc. I would think any wax would, sooner rather than later, wear off or extremly thin, exposing skin directly to the nickel plating - so that would be a no-go from my point of view/understanding. Safest thing would be to mount the magnets on the outside of the ring - and possibly cover that with something decorative, if one needs/wants a magnetic ring?

[@Ed_Aylward]

This is how the monopole bowl magnets are made as demonstrated by David LaPoint. The instructions and bill of materials, along with the 3D printable STL files can be found on the internet archive. Just do a search for "David LaPoint" once you get to the internet archive website. Enjoy!

[@BooBaddyBig]

Oh you so need to do this with Halbach arrays. You're wasting nearly half the pull strength. Either that or an iron backing plate.

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Are you saying that a Halbach needs to be magnetized so it is all in one piece like the multipole ring magnet?

[@LScott97]

Very cool video! Thank you! 👍👍👍

[@stoufer2000]

Great video.. love your great ideas and inspiration

[@danielfoster2788]

I would like to order some Utron Magnets for my research laboratory. Dipole, south to south, north to north 3 each as strong as you can legally make them.

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Daniel - thanks - if you are still looking check with our website supermagnetman.com and contact someone there. If you ask a question it will probably get to me:)

[@musicteacherengel]

Thank you so much for this video. The most insightful part for me was your use of O rings to grip the whiteboard. I am a school teacher (music) and am a 3D printing hobbyist, and have made magnets for whiteboards before, but I'd never thought - or heard anywhere else - to use those O rings for added strength. I had only thought to use larger magnets or more powerful magnets, but your idea is amazing. Thank you!

[@bobthescienceguy2144]

I was really impressed with the 8 lb weight being supported with your magnet hook. The way you have the magnets arranged definitely gave it extra strength. 👍By the way, it's good to see you back.🙂

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Thanks Bob - we have been super busy. This was just too much fun to hold off any longer:) Thanks for watching.

[@bobthescienceguy2144]

@@SuperMagnetMan Your very welcome.👍

[@joshuameldru4004]

Hello sir, Please list the magnet with perhaps a link that I can purchase / learn more about that particular type of magnet used in the white board hanging item. I’d like to use this magnet you mentioned with the specific pole arrangement for a magnetic gear. Please let me know. Thank you and thank you for the informative video

"Science Lee" explains magnets is a more logical way if you want to take a look at his youtube channel.

[@EnergyTRE]

Hope all is well sir. I have a question or task if you should choose to take it. Have you ever made a square magnet. Not a normal square made of 6 square shaped pyramid magnets ?? I look forward to your reply

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Sorry for my delay in answering. I am assuming that you mean for example 6 of the pyramids with the same pole at the top and epoxy them together to make one cube with only one pole on the outside. Each magnet would be repelling its neighbors on all sides and would take quite a system to not only force them together but to hold them while the epoxy cures. Well I have made a cube frame out of aluminum that held square flat pieces together to try and make a single poled magnet on the outside and we have a video of that work. What happens is that the outside field goes to near zero when you put the last magnet in place. Our modeling software predicted that and then when I built the actual piece it got very low gauss outside. I might think about doing something like you suggest and making the parts with my 3D printer:) Food for thought - Thanks.

[@EnergyTRE]

@@SuperMagnetMan not same pole not on all 6 sides. It's necessary for them to have the counterpart on the other side. No clue or epoxy needed in this arrangement

[@EnergyTRE]

Many thanks for the response if you have these magnets I'd love to purchase them lol. going to the website soon for them.

[@trench01]

I asked this question last time but would like your comment on it and if it is possible and how much it would cost for a small working setup like this? Maybe I figured out how to make the inverter magnet to be done in the air in 3D. 1 To have one square with magnets facing N out of it on all 6 sides touching each other. 2 Have the other magnet be the same but with S side facing out. 3 have the S side facing magnet have also 8 smaller magnets facing N out at its corner, which would have it have in total 16 magnets. (almost looking like an octagon on the side) I would assume it would work since it would be locked at a certain distance. I would assume 3d casing might help it. thanks

[@SuperMagnetMan]

I am curious about what you are asking. This sounds like my cube magnet experiment where I had an aluminum cube made in 2 parts that each look like the letter "U" except with square corners. The 2 pieces fit together perfectly to make a cube. On the inside of all 6 sides I glued a 1 inch square by 2mm thick magnet with the same pole facing to the center. If you can email me a sketch of your idea I can think about it. Email - [e-mail]

[@luzi29]

Can you make a video about IronLev and how it works?

[@ekrem06]

OMG Real Magneto!!! It's a pleasure for me to see your videos. There are really really incredible informations. I am interested in electricity and magnets. Of course, I have been dealing with 3D printing for 2 years and I love it.

[@SuperMagnetMan]

There are so many other things that I have been doing with magnets and 3D printing - it is getting extremely interesting:) More to come:)

[@TheTruthPlease100]

Cool!

[@Dismythed]

Sir, thank you for the product demonstration. Regarding the ring magnet itself, is it common that the magnetic field of the eight-pole ring seeks a hexegonal configuration as shown at 4:54? If so, why does it do that? Would not a 6- or 12-pole magnet utilize the effect better?

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Excellent question - the shorter the arc length of the magnet, the less distance away from the surface that the magnetic field will penetrate but the more North-South interfaces you create. If it is sticking directly to steel it does make a slightly stronger attraction. On a white board the porcelain surface is between the magnet and the steel back plate that makes it magnetic. So it would not be stronger in this application. Also, there is a diminishing return on how much it cost to make a multipole magnetizer and how much additional force it would create. A 12 pole would be better if the rin were like 2 inches (50 mm) in diameter. Hope this helps:)

[@Dismythed]

@@SuperMagnetMan Thank you for taking the time to reply. Very clear. Just a point of clarification: is the hexagonal effect real, or just a quirk of that particular magnet or the manufacturing process?

[@SuperMagnetMan]

@@Dismythed Sorry about that - I missed that part of the question - at the 4:54 mark I am just showing the 8 pole ring magnet on the viewing film - I did not see a hexagonal configuration.

[@Dismythed]

@@SuperMagnetMan Thank you.

[@felurianmasters4369]

@@Dismythed you mean the lines it makes in the inside huh. Strange to see, I'm wondering if maybe the material just couldn't bend that many times, and that direction was resistant, or if it's the field we are seeing there

The octopolar ring has my mind buzzing with ideas right now

[@chrishayes5755]

You've been slacking sir, more videos, the internet demands it!!

[@mattman8685]

Will you be selling the new Niron Magnets ? If so when can we expect to see these new super magnets on the open market?

[@SuperMagnetMan]

We are not sure how close they are to making them to be sold. We have people who have communicated with the people at Niron and they do not see to be close.

[@BooBaddyBig]

I might be wrong, I'd have to check, but I think the ring may violate electromagnetism safety guidelines, the field strength is probably narrowly above that considered safe for long term wear. Probably not actually illegal though, the laws are less strict. Also, those are probably plated in nickel which is an allergen; but you could replace them with gold plates ones.

[@SuperMagnetMan]

The gold plated magnets are actually Nickel-Copper-Nickel plated first:). We have been using this design for about 20 years. It has been used in many customer solutions. Frequently it is used in small very powerful electric motors or in sensors needing to detect 45 degree rotation steps.

[@awheeles1]

Awesome!!!

[@casparjohn4642]

The o-ring is a really elegant idea, thank you

[@SuperMagnetMan]

[@legitcarz4054]

I am Lucas I am 9 years old and I have a question, what can you do with "teslas" can you make power????? please let me know.

[@SuperMagnetMan]

Well Lucas - with magnetism you can make power if you move the magnets against copper wire. There are ways of making it more efficient but basically any time a magnet moves past copper it makes electricity:)
