beachloan Valued Member United States 219 Posts	Posted 02/13/2012 12:56 pm Well, there are 3 options, 1. It is not magnetic 2. it is to small 3. my magnet is not strong enough. Report this Post to the Staff
CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 02/13/2012 1:13 pm It's pretty tiny, so it is probably a combination of #2 and #3; a plastic fridge magnet is probably not gonna do the job. Do you have any old speakers or hard drives you could scavenge a stronger magnet from? Hard drive magnets can be really, really strong. I've got one from a fat ol' 500 MB drive that requires a putty knife to pry off the fridge. A reasonably strong magnet should be able to pick up Rice Crispies. Report this Post to the Staff
Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 02/13/2012 2:20 pm I see what appears to be rust and verdigris on the iron portion. Looks like an iron strike through to me. Report this Post to the Staff
arsave Valued Member United States 225 Posts	Posted 02/15/2012 8:54 pm I think a retained strike through. Nice find. Report this Post to the Staff
