I recently bought a set of 6mm spheres magnets (their 3mm counterparts are commercially known as "Buckyballs") and they are SO fun to play with. You can make an infinite number of different shapes and even mechanical wonders (I'll post soon about the Infinite Loop I invented!) and simply moving the magnets around in your hands is pretty awesome.
In addition to the many shapes already out there, I started to document molecular-like structures. They are quite challenging to make (I haven't been able to do some of them a second time!), but the resulting structures are sturdy and awesome looking.

I also have a pair of this (some call it Zen magnets). I combine with coins to play.
ReplyDeleteYeah, you can mix em up with a bunch of stuff to build interesting things. Other magnetic toys work especially well n_n
