is amazing to me is that they actually build these things.

that even stick to a magnet?

Noooo, it's a rendering in SketchUp.

I think so - they're rare earth magnets with optically flat faces (checked 'em with my laser interferometer!) so they should stick even if not magnetic. :)

Or you can use some of that new Lee Valley Duct Tape to hold your tools to the belt magnet. This new duct tape is designed and approved by Red Green. It is strong enough to hold vehicles together.

Now that just sounds tacky - but you got me thinking about some magnetic latex paint that I saw in a catalog a while back. If I painted the handle a nice (magnetic) lime green, it would help me find it if I ever set it down for a (senior) moment...

Ah, yes..Red Green. And who said Canada never contributed to the Space Program. Trailer Park Boys, Celine Dijon and Red Green, no wonder that the rest of the planet has a skewed sense of what Canadians are about....

Blame it on PBS. They brought us Red Green and Benny Hill. So we have those distorted perceptions of both Canada and England.

You hit it on the head, Leon.. Try to put it in your cart and you get their April Fool's Gotcha..

Red Green is my hero! "Today's winner will receive a free trip to Sam and Ella's restaurant."

..and if your wife doesn't find you handsome......

Where is the power cord?

Or is it battery powered? :^)

Keep your stick on the ice?

On Brainiacs (A BBC kid's science show) in the UK they did just that, first with 50 pieces and then with 100 pieces...the 100 piece car went to 80 feet before it fell to the ground...

You have got to give them credit for an amazing effort in building the thing.

The photography is outstanding.

Indeed, or somebody is really good with CGI software. Either way they're a hoot.

Spare the duct tape, spoil the job
