And if you've any junk computer hard drives lying around, each contains two
very strong magnets. You can't beat the price/shipping.
I also recommend that any stick( I have an old golf club handle) be used with
at least TWO balloons over the business end. Reason being is magnetite dust/
metallic
netic side down).
After ahile you will build up dust on the bottom of the plexiglass and can
wipe it right off- not dusting up and building around the magnets.

Hi,
Here is a video that we filmed yesterday in Holbrook, Arizona. It's a
very basic video for those of you that have never hunted Holbrook, or
maybe never hunted anywhere.
We had lots of fun, found 12 small meteorites and as you can see from
the last scene, we did finally get out of the heat.

I think it will be interesting to see the hunters.
