wouldwurker Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 This is the wackiest product description I've ever read. Great site for factory seconds, by the way. Picked up a 25 piece feeler gauge set for $5 today http://store.harryepstein.com/cp/IndustrialSurplus/COW-MAG.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davewyo Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I had to look it up. Apparently a magnet is used in the bovine digestive tract. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_disease They do not pass them, it remains in the rumen for life. By your subject title I originally thought you were talking about my pick-up. Park it out on some open range and every cow for miles around comes by and rubs its hide on the paint. In return they leave you a steaming pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave H Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Used one for years as a stud finder a string threaded through the end of the rubber squeezer on an eye dropper, tie a knot in the end of sting so it won't pull through the hole, stretch the rubber tip over the cow magnet dangle this contraption and, slide it along a wall. It will be attracted to any screw or nail or, steel stud the center of the cow magnet is the exact location of screw, nail or, steel stud.

ColinF Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Well, I was expecting more of a plastic fridge magnet my wife would think was cute since she loves cows, but nope, of course I want to buy it just because of the description.
