Largest Magnetic Sculpture


This may seem like the famous cube puzzle for children above 8years.The task on hand for solving this is to get six uniform colours each on all the six sides of the cube.It is a little tricky but one needs to take an extra leap in thinking to actually solve the game.Similar to this we have a different story to share based on some scientific facts.
The nanodots by Nano Magnetics Ltd. is a toy which consists of 236 powerful magnetic spheres. These spheres which we call dots or balls you can stick and grouped together, molded, shaped together in many different varieties of configurations and so much more. The Nanodots are not common magnets. They are made from material which is called neodymium. In the production process is used high-tech technology which makes the nanodots magnets characteristic.  You can make different constructions as you like or just relax and mold the nanodots in your hand.
The founders of Nanodots, Tim Szeto and Denis Saveliev used over 550,000 gold Nanodots to create an enormous replica of the Golden Globe award which weights over 600lbs - setting the new world record for the Largest Magnetic Sculpture.
Not only was the attempt big enough but also turned to be a record breaker.The previous world record for the Largest Magnetic Sculpture  included only 32,786  magnetic dots  which was a replica of the Cybercube puzzle  measuring 32 x 32 x 32 cm (12.6 x 12.6 x 12.6 in) which was created by Ronald Light (USA) at Science City at Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri,United States of America.
Nanodots are basically these educational "toys" from Nano Magnetics that can be used to build many different complex and interesting structures. Components of the statue were created in Toronto and moved to L.A., where it was completed in a GPK gifting suite at the Golden Globes.
Over the period of time Nnaodots have become a hit and are now the best sellers and can be spotted in any good toy fairs.These magnetic puzzles  can be procured in the markets with different names like Buckynalls or NeoCubs.
Nanodots have become  the new learning philosophy among children and are the best methods for educational exploration.The Largest Magnetic Sculpture counted over 5,50,000 gold nanodots  and was set by Tim Szeto and Denis Saveliev at Los Angeles,California,United States of America on January 21,2011.
