I have built my stir plate with what I thought was the correct pieces and I can not get things to work correctly.
I am using 2 (or 4) smaller rare earth magnets and can not seem to find my fault. I have the fan "sucking" air down, with the magnets stuck (no glue) to a washer (glued) on the top of the fan. I have 800ml of water and a 1 inch stir stick. I believe the magnets are 1/8 inch in size, the only ones radio shack had. I have 2 other larger magnets I am about to try as well.
The magnets need to be opposing polarity, correct?
