If you are not familiar with Neodymium magnets (or rare earth magnets as they are often called), you are in for a surprise. These magnets pack a powerful punch for such a small size. They are nothing like craft magnets you see in the store.

Commonly used in special applications such as high density hard drives, they have a multitude of uses for the maker. They come in a variety of sizes (often smaller than you expect), so when choosing, consider what your needs are and don’t be afraid to try a smallish magnet.
