Materials for DIY Magnetic Viewer

-Medium to suspend Iron particles:
Can use oils including mineral oil, baby oil, silicon oil, castor oil etc, syrups, corn syrup, Karo syrup, Honey, Glycerins or any viscous clear liquid.

-Iron particles:
Iron filings or iron oxide powder (magnetite).
Its best to pre wash the iron and different brands have different purities and cleanliness - see our video on washing and brands.

-UV reactive liquid or UV highlighter if you want your display to glow. *Note UV may not mix with all you suspension mediums like oils.

-Neodymium Magnets or Ceramic Magnets.

Kevin Gittemeier, Emily Gittemeier and Ryan Gittemeier made these magnetic field line viewers science projects.
Magnetic field lines or magnetic flux lines are invisible. There are several ways to see magnetic lines or how to see magnetic fields. You can purchase magnetic field viewing film online, purchase a 3d magnetic field viewer (3d magnetic field demonstrator) or purchase other means to view magnetic lines. If you do not want to make a purchase online a magnetic field viewer you can easily see magnetic lines of force or magnetic flux lines by making a homemade diy magnetic field viewer. You can easily make a magnet field viewer with oil (or any carrier that won’t rust) and iron filings. diy magnetic viewers are cheap and easy to make. You can also buy commercial magnetic field viewers for a low price online and add oil to make it a 3d magnet viewer for a cheap price - see our video on how to convert a standard 3d viewer into a oil carrier diy 3d viewer.
Seeing magnetic fields with magnetic field viewing film or magnetic field viewing paper is easy if you purchase a magnetic viewing film online. Magnetic viewer film or magnetic viewer paper can be bought online cheap if you search for a coupon code or search best price for magnetic viewer film. You will need strong neodymium magnets. You can also build a diy magnetic field viewer or 3d Magnetic field demonstrator.
Also search how to see magnetic fields or how to see magnet flux line or view magnetic field tool for some more magnet viewing ideas.
