Magnetic Putty? That's Silly!

DIY Magnetic Putty

By adding a ferrous component to an already wacky toy we can keep all characteristics of the original putty, but now have the additional dimension of magnetism! I’ve seen magnetic thinking putty for sale on other websites, but I’ll show you how you can make your own for a fraction of the price and in about 20 minutes.

    Powdered iron (not oxide) for the gonzo effect. Black iron oxide (magnetite, Fe3O4) is superparamagnetic when micronized. Micronized CrO2 also does a job. This screams for time-lapse photography. Add glitter, glow-in-dark pigment… go mokumĂ© ganĂ© with layered putty.
