These little custom magnetic bricks pack quite a punch!
I found the smallest and heaviest thing in my garage to test the strength of the 2x4 brick magnet. The winner is a 1 pound cold steel hex chisel.
The magnet had absolutely no problem attaching to the chisel and could probably hold up to 2 lbs easily. The magnetic pull was so strong that I had to take pictures of them individually becuase when I tried to take a picture of them all together they either repelled or attached each other making a clump of magnetic bricks.
THE PROS:
1. Its small
2. its a Lego brick
3. looks cool on the fridge
4. It's crazy strong and will hold almost anything to your fridge without breaking a sweat
THE CONS:
1. the list of things these magnets can damage is fairly long. (electronic devises, cards with magnet strips, etc.)
2. can effect the the operation of pacemakers or similar medical devises.
3. If you randomly decided to bake your brick in the oven above 175 degrees the magnet will loose it's magnetic properties
Do the pros outweigh the cons? I'd love to hear what you think.
[edit] I did some additional research and it sounds like magnets in general do all the damage listed above and the warning sheet I got is kind of like the "The state of California has determined that this product will give you cancer" that you see on almost everything. I also read that even a cell phone battery can screw up your pacemaker.

I was born in Canada and have had the good fortune to visit San Francisco and Maine. We were visiting friends in Bangor, ME and they took us to the Breakwater Lighthouse in Rockland. I loved it there. We also visited some quaint fishing villages. I'd love to return there one day! I loved San Francisco. It was such a thrill to see it in person. And Canada is always in my heart. I miss being there. I got to see Victoria, BC. Montreal, PQ, Ottawa and Toronto ON.
I think I'm really not your man but...
I am a magnet type.

While doing housecleaning I found a magnet I thought was long gone. Sometimes it's good to clean house!
My 7 year old daughter made this all on her own! It's meant to be her and I have to say it's a good likeness! :-D
I made it into a magnet so we can look at it every time we make coffee!

A Christmas gift for one generous lady. Actually a magnet, but it was too dark in the kitchen to capture it hanging on fridge door.
Created for a gelli print magnet swap. All papers used were gelli prints. The hearts were embellished with various fibers, glitter, and glass microbeads.
On the backside was a gelli print of a brick wall with the poem:
When you for for a walk, take seeds with you, poppies, rainbow chard, rocket. Plant them among the weeds in patches of wasteland. See what happens. (Tom Hodgkinson "How to be Free")

Candidate photo for Macro Mondays: Magnetic (not used)
Magnet is 1" in diameter. Frame is about 2.75" across.
UPDATE: THE TIME IS NOW! I will start to release my collection this week so if interested now is the time to get in contact. :)

These are magnets made with (North American) stickers and a sheet of magnetic material. Simple enough to put on the magnet sheet, much more difficult than originally thought to cut them all out. The first one is fun, the second not so much, the tenth is simply annoying. :D
Also a couple of Japanese Gashapon magnets.

All these (and more) need new homes as I'm going to a different country for an extended stay soon so send me a Flickr Mail message (access through the arrow that appears near my profile photo when mousing over it, or click on the little tan envelope that appears on my profile page) if interested.

A Yorkshireman's wife dies and the widower decides that her headstone should have the words "She were Thine" engraved on it.
He calls the stone mason, who assures him that the headstone will be ready a few days after the funeral. True to his word the stone mason calls the widower to say that the headstone is ready and would he like to come and have a look.
When the widower gets there he takes one look at the stone to see that it's been engraved "She were Thin".
He explodes - good grief, man, you've left the flamin' "e" out!
The stone mason apologises and assures the poor widower that it will be rectified the following morning.
Next day comes and the widower returns to the stone mason -"There you go sir, I've put the "e" on the stone for you"..
The widower looks at the stone and then reads out aloud - "E, She were Thin".

Monster Magnet is an American rock band. Hailing from Red Bank, New Jersey, the group was founded by Dave Wyndorf (vocals and guitar), John McBain (guitar) and Tim Cronin (vocals and drums).
Monster Magnet's style is heavily influenced by 1970s space rock such as Hawkwind, and proto-metal bands such as Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Blue Oyster Cult, Captain Beyond and Sir Lord Baltimore. In addition to recording covers such as Black Sabbath's "Into the Void" (Master of Reality, 1971) and Hawkwind's "Brainstorm" (Doremi Fasol Latido, 1972), Wyndorf sometimes incorporated elements of space rock staples into his own songs. For instance, the Dopes to Infinity title track borrows some of its lyrics from "Lord of Light" (ibid.), and Superjudge's "Twin Earth" is a reinterpretation of Captain Beyond's "Mesmerization Eclipse" (Captain Beyond, 1972). The main guitar riff to the track Dopes To Infinity is lifted from The Sir Lord Baltimore song "Woman Tamer" (Sir Lord Baltimore,1971). The band has also cited British new wave / post-punk band Depeche Mode as an influence on its music. They have also covered "Black Celebration" for a 1998 Depeche Mode tribute album.
Re-using an egg box to make a magnet storage box.
I removed the label that was on it. then I glued a bit of the gorgeous kraft paper Clare used to send us a gift (that we got today, thanks again so much !!).
I also cut a little part of the paper graphics (three stockings) & glued them in the inner part of the lid. Ta Da ! Loving it ! I may even add a lovely white & red label on top & write "Christmas Magnets", but I'm not sure yet. (Dec. 27th 2008)
