what is the best mag sheilding out there?? i have read all kinds of ansewrs and i am lost by now, so i need to ask it myself, what is the best mag shield out there.
thanks
bismuth or a compound thereof might repel a magnetic force slightly
thanks for the qiuck response. i posted 2 swf to show that it is possibl to point the flux mainly in one dirrection.
thanks
how do you shape this material? does it melt?
is this an ok place to buy it AT? http://www.theodoregray.com/PeriodicTable/Elements/083/index.s13.html

thanks
You can get bismuth at United Nuclear, Bob Lazar's webstore. I not sure bismuth will be of any use though for something like a magnet motor. It doesn't really repel magnetic force. It does have stange properties though, and you can make some cool looking stuctures by melting it. You can create that levitating magnet experiment by using two bismuth disc above and below a suspended magnet, and with a magnet above the setup pulling the magnet inside the two discs.
@ Freezer:
I have seen that done. It reminds me of the Meisner effect except without the liquid nitrogen and the super conductor. what I read said that the adjustment is critical but, it does levitate. Very cool.

A little less than a year ago i was playing with my coil gun and found interesting effects in the sense that when i put a slug at the loading point in the barrell, behind the projectile, that the projectile shot farther and faster i did have to glue the bismuth slug in place or else it flew the opposite direction
