Please have a look at the attached drawing. I would like some feedback regarding the idea I have had to magnetically connect truss tubes (while playing with my kids Magnetix set). Apologies to anyone else who has also had this idea...
The truss tube would be made of anything light and stiff. The balls could be bonded into the tube ends. The toroids would be bonded to the upper and lower bits. The ball could be either a steel ball bearing or a spherical magnet. The toroid could be either a magnet or a steel ring. Obviously a steel ball would partner with a toroidal magnet and a spherical magnet would partner with a steel ring.
Whadayareckon?
