<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>One method was to aquire
the * powder * , build a mold , create a form to suit your</FONT></DIV>

can apply whatever * field shape * necessary to create a</FONT></DIV>

Naturally , the molding is done under high pressure and the field</FONT></DIV>

. Something interesting that was being investigated , was</FONT></DIV>

D.C. field that was being contorted by a weaker A.C. field.</FONT></DIV>

MAGNETIC FIELDS<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>This bring up an idea I had a while
back. Is it theoretically possible<BR>to have a spherical magnet that
has the north pole on the outside and<BR>south on the inside? I wanted
to make make a toy with a ball that<BR>hovers over a magnet that has north
up. The magnet for the base would<BR>be dish shaped to keep the ball
floating in the center. I tried to cut<BR>up a bunch of small magnets
a long time ago and glue them to a ping pong<BR>ball with the norths out,
but it became a project that was
never<BR>finished.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
