Joseph;

I am afraid there is no help for you.

How are these magnets polarized?

That will determine if there is a way to utilize them.

But, for a dime a pop I woulda got 100 just for the novelty.

Should be fun, regardless.

Tom, that really hurts. I was kicking myself for not grabbing 100.
They are polarized through the width. I connected 50 in a line and can pick up the 50 by the end two. I will have to find a way to hold them into a rotor design, and stop them from rotating. Will keep ya all informed.

Watching you try to get those mounted and equally spaced on a metal backing plate would definitely be worth the price of admission :)
