Hi,
I found this on your site and tried building it. I placed a small Nd
magnet on a string and I ran it for 15 minutes and although it got hot,
the magnet never let go. Do I have to use a ceramic magnet or a special
magnet? I thought the Curie point made the wire non-magnetic so any
magnet would work. I tried placing the magnet on the 'red hot' section
and it still attracted. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
