RE: What about the push-pull magnets in the 20 series Maggies? NT
Posted by pictureguy on November 13, 2021 at 20:31:37:
Actually, my suggestion which has never been reacted to by anyone is that
Magnepan establish a 'Custom Shop'....modeled after say.....Colt Firearms......
You could get many Colt firearms rebuilt / detailed AND engraved. All are $$ and ALL are collectible.
My suggestion to Magnepan? Get an EXPERT woodworker / help and proper shop tools. Sell CUSTOM wood framed panels built essentially TO SPEC. A few other things got tossed in, too, but that's the 'nut' of it....
Stronger Magnets are in some ways Hazardous. And China is NOT the only source for 'em......the US, for example has rare earth deposits, too.....
But you would require changes AT Magnepan. Pinch injuries with Uber Powerful magnets are possible. They STICK to one-another like stuck with CrazyGlue. You simply Can't screw that up.
You would need proper tooling to handle and assemble a pole piece.... This would not be a trivial investment and may short-term slow down production.
