I am fascinated with this magnet thing. I just read a little blip somewhere about Graphene and its very unique properties. Your video makes me wonder what could happen if the properties of this magnet idea got mixed in with what graphene can do. Something tells me these two things working together could bring about even more new frontiers of technological advancement. magnets are kewl! nwlivewire
I want some of the ones repel each other in one position (offering a spring/cushion setup) but then latch together when you turn them. That could be incredibly useful for motorcycle riders. I can only imagine what they are charging for one of those magnets though.
When I was a teen working in a welding shop we used to assemble magnets in a framework about half the size of a brick that would exert about 750#'s of pull on a steel table. They were really simple once you understood what you were doing. 4 fairly weak rectangular ceramic magnets aligned so they were repelling each other wherever they interact at all would create a much more powerful magnetic field. Not just flipping one magnet over so it repels but also rotating it 180 degrees.
