Sometimes you meet someone who touches your life, and you want to do something for them. Jim Abraham is one of those individuals. I met Jim at the Cleveland Clinic as I was getting my treatments for prostate cancer. Jim is a professional magician and volunteers at the Clinic and always greeted us with a smile, and performed magic tricks for the patients. I asked for a business card so I could get an idea for creating a carving for him. Thank you Jim for making our daily visits so pleasurable. Once again, here is my initial design in Photoshop, once I received his business card, I changed the format of the lettering to match his card. Then transferred patttern, started carving, burnt in hands and cards and finally the finished product and a picture of Jim and I at the Clinic where I gave it to him.

I had a brainstorm this morning. I want to make a jewerly box for my 4 year old granddaughter, but I want it to be a little "magical". To that end I want to use a steel ball in a track sandwiched between two thin sheets, the steel ball would be held at one end by a low power magnet and moved to the other end by a "magic wand" (stick with a magnet on the end"" where the steel ball would activate a magnetic catch, allowing the lid to open. Does anyone know where I can find low power magnets and low power magnetic catches. Or suppliers that list the power of the magnets involved. If I know how strong the catch magnet is I can get a strong rare earth magnet to put in the wand. Thanks in advance.
