A buddy of mine has no Internet. He is looking for some big magnets, strong enough to pick up 10 pounds or so. I have an old fishermen's magnet and he would like something similar, with a ring where you can affix a rope to it. Any of you guys got any ideas as to where he can get them? He says the ones at Harbor Freight are not suitable. Thanks.

Try some busted hard drive magnets. They are super strong!
Like this? The magnet is the size of a quarter and that piece of rail is 35lbs.
These guys sell all shapes and sizes.
Some of them are dangerous, read the description on this one: http://www.gaussboys.com/ndfeb-magnets/D7626.html

They don't list the pound rating on that one. Weird?

x2 I extracted a couple of magnets from a dead hard drive, very powerful. It wasn't safe to pry them apart, to get them apart safely, you had so slide them apart, and that took quite a bit of effort.
