Not only can magnets find studs, they can also find pipes and BX-style armored electrical wiring…

Maybe not the best way to find a stud :-/

I sent my friend a link to the Super Magnet Man – he ordered a handful of the little tiny ones like the ones in the photo, and is using them to hang the pictures on his walls.

If memory serves, in the movie “The Big Easy” Dennis Quaid’s character, Detective McSwain, throws a powerful magnet through a shop window. When the magnet is checked into the evidence room, the friendly evidence clerk places the magnet next to a surveillance tape that show’s McSwain taking a bribe. Both the evidence and the case against him is thus destroyed.

I agree with Markus. Rare earth magnets aren’t toys – they’re cool, but get really dangerous as they get larger.

One thing you do not want to do with these little magnets is having anywhere near toddlers. Two of these magnets swallowed can kill a baby when the intestines get perforated . . . Just saying.
