I made earrings out of guitar picks and to install the french wire I melted a hole at the pointy end with an awl/ice pick.  I heated up the metal tip of the awl on the gas stove and used it to melt a small hole in the guitar pick.  Cool idea, now I'll make a matching necklace!  Thanks!

A female's best attraction is based on her body's shape. On their body breast is the only thing exposed for a special attraction like magnetic. If it is with a good shape, it is very nice to see also.That is a specil gift given by God to them. If Iam right  mail me.... jerrydubai@rediffmail.com

A gemstone / birth stone is a collective term for all ornamental stones that possess attributes like beauty, rarity, durability.Astral gems, apart from these material properties, increase the psychic powers of an individual by their curative powers.  Astral gems also have the power to ward off the ill-effects of planets and worn in the form of birth stone..\n\n\nThe gem stone / birth stone should be set in the right metal and with the right weight.  It should be worn on the correct finger of the working hand.Each gem, with its constant source of specific rays,gives rise to constructive vibrations that have therapeutic powers. Hence wearing your appropriate birth stone will always give you luck and prosperity.

Keep them clean, try not to play with them. Make sure the jewelry you have is genuine gold or surgical stainless steel. Soak it in sea salt water at night or when you can. Hint...Epsom salt, bactine and peroxide ARE NOT good. If things get worse, talk to a piercer and I'm sure they can help you out.\n\nAlso find jewelry that's comfortable in them. CBRs/rings might be easier to use than post earrings(bad idea) or barbells(curved or straight)

A material which is predominantly diamagnetic will be repelled by a magnet, although typical objects only feel a very small force. This can be used to levitate light pieces of pyrolytic graphite or bismuth above a moderately strong permanent magnet. As water is predominantly diamagnetic, this property has been used to levitate water droplets and even live animals, such as a grasshopper and a frog.

well, there's also potassium permaganate. ( which is a black powder/specks) you could cover your shirt in black beads or crystals which would look pretty unique!

I wear a therapeutic magnetic necklace and take a couple of natural supplements. I am currently pregnant and can not take any other products, but will not go back to anti-histamines, because I have not had one problem. My uncle who has sever allergies and hay fever is now on the same products and wearing a necklace, and for the first time in years is not bed ridden sick.

There are magnetic products on the market to aid in relieving stress. In the process they help relieve pain in some instances. The reason pain is eliminated are the results of the magnetic force stimulating nerves to create a blood flow to swollen and injured areas. When blood gets to an area we do not have the swollen and painful situation. When blood is restricted we have swelling and pain. It is a normal reaction of our bodies letting us know of stress and injury.\n   Best of Luck.

My dad wears a copper bracelet & my gran did too. You can also buy magnetic bracelets that have a similar effect & don't leave a mark on your wrist like the copper ones do. They cost between £10 & £50 depending on the style.

If you mean a magnetic field produced by a magnet,it has been used as a therapy. To date there is no proof that it Works.WE are living already in a weak magnetic field; that of the earth.

has to be metal, preferably in several sheets not touching each other. Wood and plastic do not stop magnetic field.\n\nThick piece of lead would definitely work, and is completely safe (as long as you do not drop it on your foot and wash your hands afterwards)

Depends on what you mean by block the effects. Stainless is transparent to magnetism much like glass to a flashlight, ferrous (normal) steels will "pipe" the magnetism to a new direction, and Aluminum will scramble the magnetism.\n\nThis scrambling of the magnetism by aluminum is used by modern roller coasters as a braking device. Powerful magnets are on the vehicle and the aluminum is attached to the guideway. When the two get close toghether the scrambled lines of magnetism have the effect of removing energy from the moving vehicle (slowing it down) and heating up the aluminum.\n\nTry this: while not in the presence of steel, hold a powerful magnet in your hand. Swing your arm back and forth, note how freely your hand moves. Now swing your arm close to, but not touching a plate of aluminum. When you get near the aluminum your arm will slow down.\n\nNow set the magnet on the aluminum. It does not stick like it would to steel. The braking effect only occurs when the magnet and aluminum are moving relative to each other.\n\nAt high speeds this magnet-aluminum relationship builds up much like water causes a tire to hydroplane. This website wants to use this effect to build high speed railways: http://www.magplane.com

Gemstone quality crystals can be made into jewellery and so are vauable. Others are useful for their ores (hematite Fe2O3 iron ore, malachite copper ore etc.) I also heard somehing about using crystals for resonance but I'm not sure what that means lol hope this helps\n\nP.S. Quartz ie. silicon used for glass

The 10K stand for the karat weight of the metal, normaly used for gold and platinum. The OB may stand for many things. Im sure someone will correct me on this, but i dont know of any metals used in jewlery that is named as OB. It could be the makers mark, as many crafters used to put their initials on things, much as many artists sign their paintings or have signature trademarks.

If I we're to guess:\nYou have tiny ammounts of iron in your bloodstream, the magents might attract the iron and pull the blood with it, and hence improving circulation. Although I may be wrong, my Dad has a magnentic bracelet, and he said it helps him a LOT.

A magnet whose magnetic properties is dependent on current flow.
