First thank you very much for all of your interesting videos and tutorials! Now a question: Are these magnets neodymium magnets? If so it might be of interest for you that this kind of magnets lose their magnetism if you bake them in the oven with your clay. Look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium_magnet It happened to some of my magnets. After this experience I just make a hole for the magnets and bake it without and attach it again after baking. (I hope this makes sense for english is not my native language!) Kerstin Hi!
