Hi Guys,
Planning to take my first trip out with My Dad and Family for an attempt at Fossicking, Tomorrow.
So been going madly through all my Kit to see what I had that I could take, (including perusing the forum and YouTube to see what i should consider.)
Then playing with my 3D printer last night I thought id see what I could make that might be useful from stuff I had around my work shop.
An old Hard Drive / Disk later and I have black sand magnet.
1) Hard drive magnets from old hard drive/hard disk
2) Piece of string that is strong enough to lift the magnet from its payload
3) Non magnetized separating rings from between hard drive plates
I designed up in 3D Builder(3D design software built into windows 10) a magnet holder for hard drive magnets, and a canister or cylinder to house them.
Model is available @ Thingverse - thing:2011502 ( Will add URL once I have completed my 10 posts )
Please feel free to suggest modifications or take it and edit the files.
Regards
Scott
