At least he's not surgically implanting it

I would think a good brand (yes, brand names matter in the world of glue) superglue would work, but you might also try getting superglue made especially for plastics. They come with a neato primer stick that will let you superglue ANYTHING (even "waxy" plastics).

This is an interesting idea btw. I might try it myself.

I have heard that it does allow you to sense when wires have an electrical current running through them. Have you tried hot glue? I know our dance team used hot glue on their fake ear rings...and they jump around all over the place.

Couldn't you just put it in the finger of a latex glove? Some glues say "don't apply to skin" for a reason...

Aw, yuck! That looks like an old wart.

I'd imagine that would be dangerous around computers and heavy machinery...

Worse yet, the information on every floppy disk or or hard drive you touch is ruined! Not to mention CRTs. Might be kind of inconvenient if you need an MRI to....

Guess you didn't actually read the article

People with magnetic implants can't erase hard drives or credit cards.

Im sure you could just run it under some cold water quickly and it wouldnt be too bad, I think I may try that,

Wow, trust me, you're gonna come out of this with no results, & missing a few layers of skin on your finger.

You could put the glove un then glue the mahnet to the glove which would prevent your skin getting irritated and theres np pressure on the magnet

but you would look a bit odd

and I just thought of how think hot glue can be. You might not be able to feel the effects at all that way.

Ok, allow the bright light of logic to burn your eyes out with knowledge.
Stupidest. Idea. Ever. Even if you found a way to glue it to your hand safely, it still wouldn't do anything. Also, there is no use for it *EVEN WHEN IT WORKS* other than the novelty of 'feeling' magnetism. That 'live wire' garbage, just use a multimeter.
