Wow, I want one of these!

ARE YOU CRAZY!! These are downright DANGEROUS...ROFL

The area I live was a DOE site producing Plutonium; a job I once held (Cert. Nuclear Reactor Operator). Meaning a lot of high tech stuff was sold at local government auctions or just showed up.

One Item a friend gave me was the working end of a very powerful magnet.
It was inert when I got it. Weighing in at a few hundred pounds, a 'C shaped'
hunk of metal with large copper coils at the bottom and a small polished gap
of about an inch at the top.

I had the electronics just never did get the cables for it's operation,
it worked (as I understood) by generating and collapsing a magnetic field
many times a second producing a very powerful magnet field.

While I don't know what the pull force was, when it was in operation you
didn't get close to it for long, as it pulled at the iron in your blood. It's wow factor
was a copper penny dropped through the gap would stop briefly then continue on.

When I moved I left it behind, it was just too heavy. Scrap value would be big bucks right now.

I have one question about this magnet...
What the hell would you need it for??????

To pull the dents out of your car Butterfly... Think I'd forget?

that certainly would have been much cheaper than the $1564 bill that came out of my pocket...

Are you kidding? By the time you got 5 feet near a car to fix the dent, that magnet would be flying out of your hand at mach speed only to put a hole in the body....LoL

lol good point
