Wouldn't recommend it. People build those things because it's easy and the tools are free, but if anything breaks, tech support is a nightmare. You might think you'll just fix it yourself with some spare parts from Granddad, but big surgery made that illegal.

I did some work on some magnetic stuff back in the day, we had some special alloy tools which made it a lot easier. I think they were just stainless steel, but I can't remember, I remember them being expensive however.

@@ColtaineCrows Neodymium magnets are unbelievable compared to any of the past magnetics most of us old guys are familiar with. Every warning about pinch danger for any neodmag larger than two nickels stacked together is for real. Blood blisters for magnets the size of a quarter or a domino. Crush bone on neodmags 52 about the size of Tech Ingredients' rig here. Loose fingers and other chunks of skin on a 6" diameter magnet. The holding force is not an exaggeration. Put the weight of a refrigerator on just that finger and it's going places. DO NOT LEAVE MAGNETS of any kind where ANY KID can get to them. If they're stupid, and we're all stupid at some age, they'll swallow them. Bad enough for refrig magnets but DO NOT WAIT AROUND IF NEODYMIUM (shiny) magnets. If they swallow a bunch at one time connected, they might pass them in the poo but still straight to hospital. If they pop them in their mouth like popcorn, they're going to end up in surgery immediately. (muscular distortion of intestinal wall > huge shear vectors where pinned by neodymium pair or cluster). All that said, they are fantastic to try out ideas that weren't effective back in the day (It took me a few nips to forget the old-magnet mindset - scary these are) that may show noticeable efficiency now. There is more to magnetic resonance than we understand. Just like hitting a certain note in a bathroom, oscillating magnetic fields need a rethink toward new materials and methods. Supercapacitors able to be quick fed transient and anomalous emfs that are now wasted can add up harvested. Much of our math on efficiency relies on the permeability of the magnetic and reluctance of alter-magnetic materials which are derived in non-combined standard lab replications. Experimentation is happening because magnetic power and energy storage options are available. The gold standard is electric flying. Power/Weight ratio can be offset by unconventional efficiency schemes using short burst hot and long term simmer power management. Great time to be alive and curious in these things. Great FREE resources like this guy here. The Bedini wheel as explained and demonstrated by Great Scott showed some interesting strangeness in the results but only because he can diagram and explain his fabrication and then measure and reason on the results. Might be worth replicating his effort. Hate to encourage the lunatic fringe and I've seen the "free energy" videos til I'm sick but it was a surprising outcome and those are always happy accidents.

Needs some anodized aluminium AN Spanners, maybe that would work

Depending on what you are doing, you can add a bounce layer to one side, so you do not get metal on magnet contact.

@@kguidry7520 Speaking of interesting results, this one one of the neatest things I have seen in magnetics for a long time. They made a magnetism based diode. arxiv.org/pdf/1802.00832.pdf Here is a different approach involving a 2D honeycomb of permalloy with some directional asymmetry of the hole positions. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/aelm.201700500

My thought exactly! Thanks.

We considered that and it is a good option.

Winding first few turns of that stuff could be an "interesting experience"...

@@blg53 Throw on a liberal amount of Kapton tape, and it should be fine.

@@TechIngredients Could you use shorter strips of metal and layer them similar to bricks first then wrap the wire over the top so as to bring the field lines closer to the gap? Or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

@@TechIngredients would you elaborate on why you choose the wire over the straps. Your response implies you have weighed the options

No need for fluid, compacted iron powder and an acrylic box might work

I was thinking the same with filings in a binder, would be messier though.

You are sincerely welcome!

Everyone and their brother (not really) has done a mhd motor with conduction. I'd like to see it done with induction.

@@kreynolds1123 How does that work?

@@robbiejames1540 if you change the current in a coil, it creates a changing magnetic field. That changing magnetic fiend induces a current in a conductive metal neat by. The currents in the metal create their own magnetic field in opposition to the initial magnetic field that induced the current. The result is a repulsive force pushing the conductor away. A Pulsed induction thruster uses a coil to ionizes a gas for a working fluid to use for a thruster to genetate an intense and rapidly changing magnetic field. once the gas is a plasma the changing magnetic field from the coil induces a current in the plasma and that current in the plasma makes its own magnetic field opposing the magnetic field in the coil thus pushing plasma away at a high speed for thrust. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_inductive_thruster

@@kreynolds1123 I see! That's really clever.

@@kreynolds1123 Presumably, that would also work with any sort of conductive material - so you could shoot a plate of metal with it too?

Thanks!

me too

NS Gaming: But that's not very scientific is it?!

Right? I automatically hit "like" before I watch because I know I'm gonna get so engrossed in the video I'll probably forget to later. I've never not liked one of your videos so I know it's a safe bet. Please keep it up. You deserve so many more subs!

Thank you!

Did one walk by in the window? I missed that person because all I saw was someone who does not have any clarity of magnetic fields talking too much about nothing.

@@lifeunderthemic You're right. I shall just head on over to your channel and peruse the wonders of ... wait, there is nothing there. All talk I take it.

@@lifeunderthemic STAHP DELET COMMANTS !!!111 "Parishna what are you talking about? How does a magnetic field work? Why do so many ignorant of rack defend what they are clueless of?

@@lifeunderthemic What specific aspects of his understanding of magnetism do you take issue with?

You're welcome!

Thanks! That is really nice to hear.

Actually, I don't. It's a bit of an inside joke. The most avid proponents of metric acendency tend to be the same people that look down on Americans because most of us are not multilingual!

Whats really funny is that the Intelligentsia who call us stupid for not using metric as the superior way, never get the joke in the joke when we tell them to come back when they make it too the moon. Not only haven't they made it to the moon unlike us Imperial users, they haven't made it even though using the superior metric systems... :)

Baling wire has kept a hundred years, and billions of miles, of Ford products running. And I'm betting there's a stash of it on the ISS.

Copper is not ferromagnetic and neither is aluminum. Although this wrapped magnet looks something like a transformer, the wire serves a completely different function. The wire in a transformer guides the electron flow and it is these electrons that generate the magnetic field. This steel wire guides the magnetic field which is generated by the permanent magnets in the center.

Ryan Fiorini They're notoriously secretive about their identities.

@@brainmind4070 Thanks for that. I just started watching.

The same people who make sure it gets fed to you make sure you have no idea of what the magnetic field actually looks like, if that helps you gather to whom they are affiliated with. This is a common thread with many of the YT technology channels today. They like to high five one another in the comment sections as well. Probably right next to each other having a coffee thinking about how to gloss over any comprehension of simplicity in design and why that is.

​@@lifeunderthemic .The Ellumin-Magneto-ati

@@cannaroe1213 LOL I like it. The grants and funding suppliers at work to keep the same page from ever being turned. Simple comprehension of magnetic fields shows that we've been handed a misrepresentation in crafty sleight of hand.

Good Idea, even though he did say its only the cross section that is significant. But there would probably be some increase. That's basically a packing problem. Like you said it probably wouldn't be worth the cost for the few percent(if that) increase unless you had some laying around. Or perhaps even just cut long strips of sheet metal.

My intuition (which is likely to be completely wrong) makes me think that two opposing C-shapes out of steel ribbon would be even better as guides but it would not be as practical to build, especially not in a continuous additive process.

The ribbon would work, the result would be more compact, the ultimate performance would be the same and the cost would have been higher

Clem Taylor agree! cold rolled steel wrapping around as used in low frequency transformer style would increase permeability which could increase the inner flux( my thought). Improve rejection to the eddy current to? if the experiment required to reduce the hysteresis loop of the wrapping material then could be a good idea. Good comment Clem. Keep going! Very informative and recreative topics

Thanks!

Thanks!

Get it to pump some iron and wrap the flux out of it.

I love when Tech Ingredients upload videos. When it´s about magnets I'm in paradise xD

Magnets rock! :)

it's a fundamental force. it just works. like gravity

@Drinkin' I guess they don't recognize miracles.

@@invendelirium Yes they are proportional in this case. It´s just something that can be confusing, making it important to use the correct term.

Sparrow's claw? Is that a Vesper Sparrow, Savannah Sparrow or a Grasshopper Sparrow? :) I hear somewhere that Crowsfeet were used as a measure of time in some places.

My dad might have had the same thought, but avoided it, fearing an endless debate about why do we have channel locks anyway.

Ha! reminds me of the time I needed a pole for my rain gauge. So, idiot me sawed the head off my mum's broom and broke the blade of my dad's hacksaw in the process. The light of truth hit me when the broom head hit the ground: Annoying one parent was dumb, both together and I was dead. My dad's comment: 'I told you to never use a metal cutting blade on wood.' He attaches the broomhead back to the handle and takes me to buy a new one for my rain gauge.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification. Also, thanks for the other comment. Many viewers (and at one point that also included us) do not understand how much effort and learning goes into producing a good video that is easy to watch. We are still learning!
