Hello,

    My 6th grader has attempted the diamagnetic experiment with the grapes
etc.

    We purchased eight neodymium magnets at Radio Shack. They are approx.
1cm in diameter and 1mm in width. There was no movement whatsoever of the
grapes.

    Is it possible the magnets are not great enough in size?

    Thank you for your reply.

    Laurie
