: Anybody find a good source one the web for Rare Earth Magnets?

Just be careful with them. My wife and I were both injured while handling some very high-strength rare earth magnets. The magnets she was holding pinched her skin and would NOT come apart. We had to tear the skin. Then I was holding the glob of stuck-together magnets and another bunch of magnets resting on a table a good 4 feet away jumped off the table, attracted to the magnets in my hand, and smashed into my hand. It was insane. The magnets sparked when they hit it was at such force. These were industrial magnets for a piece of radiology equipment that my friend was developing a part for- much stronger than normal. Now Amy will not even go near a magnet!

All this started when Amy picked up some magnets off a table and said, "Hey, what are these..." and before my friend and I could yell "STOP!" the damage was done. Speaking of damage, two of the magnets broke on impact with each other, and I bought him replacements at www.magnet4less.com Some of the larger magnets they sell require you to sign a waiver before you can buy them, and believe me there is good reason! Some of the magnets they sell have up to 6,600 pounds of force.
