I need 2 electromagnets for a climbing robot that I am planning. I cannot find any small ones on ebay. I do find the kind I want on some websites, but they $18 and up. Example is electromechanicsonline.com:

anyone know of a discount store? Or pissibly, a device from which to scavenge small electromagnets? I'd need only a few pounds of holding force.



Thanks,

I just came across a web site you may be interested in. It is on magentics and includes a section on making your own electromagnets.
