Great for craft projects

2008-01-24
Awesome product. Finally Amazon through their partners is making these easy to acquire. The strength makes them great for little arts-and-craft magnet refrigerators or assembling pieces of a project that need to be taken apart for transportation. I'm using them to attach the canopy on an RC airplane so I can easily pull the canopy off to access the battery compartment. A little hot-glue-gun to the plastic canopy and foam, press the magnets in and go. I'm also considering making a build-board with a metal backing and using these magnets to hold balsa pieces in place when gluing instead of using pins. Not sure how well it will work, but 50 of these at this price makes it cost-effective to experiment.

Precisely as advertised. More powerful than you would guess without prior experience.

These may certainly be used for many diverse, practical and previously known tasks. But their true glory lies in their ability to be nothing and yet almost anything you can imagine. This is a good way to get children of all ages into their imaginations and into science. These are real as opposed to simulated marvels.

Powerfull little magnets

2008-01-12
I glued two thin sheets of steel I purchased quite cheaply and painted white on the wall with a tube of all purpose "no nails" glue from the hardware shop. Quite quick and easy. Used these extremely powerful little magnets to make a stunning collage of photos and postcards on the wall behind my computer screen. The magnets are quite tiny, but strong enough to hold the corner of four photos or a single, large photo single handed. They are very strong. Hard to remove from the wall/metal surface with your fingers. I have to use a screwdriver bit for them to stick on in order to remove and relocate them. The magnets are elegant and discrete, almost disappear from view and I can change photos and the layout any time. Great solution to decorate your wall.

For use with Magnetic Paint

2008-01-08
I used magnetic paint to paint a section of a wall in my kids' bedrooms (although it's not really magnetic, it's metal, and magnets stick to it). Magnetic paint needs really strong magnets to stick to it, and after doing a little looking on Amazon, I went with these.

I wish I had gotten larger ones. On magnetic paint (4 coats, if you are interested), it takes two of these little magnets to hang one piece of 8.5x11 paper. I'll rate these 5 stars because the magnets are still great, it's just that I should have used bigger ones for my purposes.

Turn anything metal into a bulletin board

These magnets are very strong and surprisingly small. I've used them to turn the backs and sides of the metal bookshelves in my office into bulletin boards, and they work really well for that.

Please use adult supervision

2008-05-15
These magnets are unbelievably strong. When I opened the package they literally jumped out of my hand and pinched my other hand. The magnetic field is so strong it is almost visible. (not really) Please be cautious around children I'd hate to see what happens if one or two were ingested. They will also RUIN a television or monitor in short order trust me please. Just don't go there. These aren't just powerfull magnets. They are amazing. I'm going to buy more. Everybody gets rare earth magnets for Christmas 08. The countersunk ones are great for hanging tools, pictures, door latches on cabinets etc. Refrigerators. Fingernails required.

Great Magnets

2008-03-18
Great magnets for the price. These magnets are very powerful. They were used for a craft project. We placed them on the back of small dolls and put them on the fridge. They were able hold up about 4 pieces of paper. We are very happy with this product.

Really Strong Magnets

2008-03-01
They are small but very strong. You get 50 pieces for less than 10 bucks. Nice for little projects and to toy around. Just not for very little kids who love to put things in their mouth. If you use it as a refrigerator magnet, one alone can hold a few pieces of paper. The mere size would make it hard to find when it fall down and also a difficult to remove with your fingers.

FUN!

We purchased the MAGCRAFT magnets for a science fair experiment. Worked wonderfully for the experiment. Our family spent an evening playing with the magnets, just having fun. Definitely a great product for family fun and learning. We made metal objects on the table seem to magically move - to the delight of the 41 year old and the 5 year old!
