    We use big ass versions of these with a forklift for picking up sheet metal. Works great!

      We also use them daily for the indicator base. Makes it super easy to slap an indicator arm onto a work hold and indicate a part or fixture into place. And same with the forklift, we use a 3 and a 5 ton lever magnet on the overhead crane to easily move parts around.

    My friend brought one of these to school once. He got it stuck high up on a metal doorframe where he couldn't reach it to turn it off, so he jumped and grabbed it, using his own body weight to tear it off. Well, not only did the magnet come off, but so did some of the paint from the doorframe.

      The latex paint has poor adhesion to begin with.
      The magnet pressed against the frame so hard it caused the latex paint to adhere to the magnet (like masking tape).
      If you get your friend to try the same thing with an Oil Base Enamel coated surface (like an antique railing) the magnet will pull away clean

      Door mag latch (inside the strike) is usually a solenoid plunger.
      Mag Latch is usual a unit outside the door, inside the secure zone with a steering electromagnet. System can energize, de-energize.
      The main reqson they can't rely on this method is safety.
      The system can't rely on any mechanical means in case of fire.
      Door bars qualify because they can be activated entirely inside the secure zone

      NASA developed magnetic "gravity" boots way back in the day that confused the hell out of people as they switched on and off with every step.
      Alot of research on mangnets has been done focusing on shape/geometry of the magnet as well geometry of magnet placement to direct/redirect manetic field lines where wanted/intended.
      One form is a gate/valve, pass/no pass configuration. These are NOT EM magnets, but the same principles should appliy there. Its just easier to turn off current if you have the power.

    Fascinating to consider how it doesn’t take force to turn the magnet off, despite it resulting in the metal bar leaving a magnetic potential well. I think it’s because the two halves are more stable in the “off” configuration, which offsets the force needed to pull the metal bar away? It’d be interesting to know if turning the magnet on is difficult (with no object attached)

      You can watch the original video to see him turning it on, he does so with a 3 finger grip and it doesn't seem to be much work. So I'm not sure that either config is "more stable" my guess would be that they're equally stable and that the offset comes from the unique interaction between the off configuration and the steel side-walls.

      Turning the magnets require a force like trying to put 2 magnets close and then pulling them apart, is not a huge force because the magnets are small and the device probably offers you a mechanical advantage like gears or smith also altho it can hold the bar it can't lift it and the small pieces barely have any potential energy

      Actually they're not that valuable unless they're another year besides 1943. Pennies were made of steel in 1943 due to the copper shortage in WWII, so if these are 1943 pennies, yes they are still more valuable than the face value but they're not nearly as much as many mint/die error coins or transitional error coins would be. The ones in this video would get you $1-20 each, depending where you go to sell it.

I love coins. My absolute favorite is the 1861 Seated Liberty quarter that I found metal detecting. I live in a small southeastern Kansas town that was Union camp during the Civil War. I found it with other Civil War relics, so it seems safe to assume it has been in the ground since then. After some really through research, I found out it is an extremely rare variety. The obverse and reverse are of different types. I have no idea of its actual value. But, the expert I spoke with said he only knows of less than half a dozen of this variety. He also confirmed that it is, in fact, the extremely rare variety. I need to send it off to get it officially authenticated and graded. I don't have any desire to sell it, so I haven't been in a rush to do so.
