#028: Catching Bugs Bunny

Here’s one just for fun: follow Wile E. Coyote’s example and use a ten trillion volt electromagnet to catch the elusive Bugs Bunny. It’s not quite as successful as you’d think. (Perhaps he’d have been more successful if he’d chosen Aussie Magnets rather than ACME…)

#006: Magna Doodle

When I was a kid, I loved my Magna Doodle. Chances are you grew up around one too. Even today when I come across one I’m still enchanted by its invisible ink and magical eraser. I’ll be drawing for hours!

See how it works here.

Make your own compass using a magnet and these instructions from HowStuffWorks. Easy! Great for the kids.
