Hello,
You have an interesting web site, but I thought you
might like to know that your magnet polarity information
is in error. The north indicating pointer of a compass
is a NORTH SEEKING magnet, in other words a SOUTH polarity
magnet. The pole that it points toward is a NORTH polarit,
not a SOUTH polarity as indicated in your diagrams. I
guess the magnets work for you as long as they are
assembled per your diagrams, but it could be confusing
to some people, as your polarity identificatin is incorrect.
