Floating Ring Magnet

Floating Rings: In this project you will make a set of magnet rings to float above each other while their balance is maintained using a wood dowel. You will then examine the flexibility of the floating rings and propose uses for such a floating set of rings. Material: You will need a base board, a 6" wood dowel or pencil and six ring ceramic magnets, make sure that the wood dowel or pencil fits the hole in the center of magnets. Also try to get painted magnets. A layer of paint will protect ceramic magnets from chipping.
