Magnet Topped?

[AroEnglish]

I like the idea for a magnetic wind cap.
I have a magnetic knife block in the kitchen to organize the knives. The problem is that the magnets are just way too strong. I go to grab a knife to start chopping veggies and I end up with the whole block of knives stuck to the end of my knife. You have to pry the knife off like King Author.

Magnetic wind cap sounds like a great idea

Weird but true:

Permanent magnets (as opposed to electromagnets) are greatly affected by heat exposure.

One heat-induced "scrambling" of the atomic-level alignment that makes them magnets is all it takes.

Above 175 degrees F will do it.

Hard to say if that temp can be reached in a pipe's shank by smoking it, but it definitely could from sitting on a car dashboard in the summer (for example). And used for a rim cap? It would every time.

I was wondering about the effect of heat on those magnets
Thanks for clarifying

Stupid magnets, why do you have to be so sensitive?

It's to prevent nails and screws from puncturing your bowl out on the construction site.

Good point. But, what a good idea if it weren't for the heat.
Just a cap with the magnets in the lid, with something iron based in the rim of the pipe might work for storing pre-packed bowls, just removing the lid to smoke, but I bet the first thing lost on that pipe would be the fancy lid.
Oh well...

Magnetic stems.

Hey! That's my pipe. Had to check my cabinet before I realized I bought mine direct from Yashtalov and not from SP. Looks almost identical.
