that's just amazing. I'm pretty sure I've never dealt with magnets that strong, and I'm not sure I want to.
Have we heard from Lee or Oliver; Is this how they held the dome in place for the Celebration droid?

I'm not certain, but there are strong suspicions that it is so.
My ex-roommate used to have a huge magnet from a hard drive, but I think it wasn't as strong per density because it was big and didn't kill us. He stored it on the I-beam in the bottom of his house and forgot it (or couldn't remove it) when he sold the house.

Hmm, I also seem to be slowly magnetizing my toolset.

BB figures since he was born in the UK he can be the one to do the driving! He's glad the controls are on the "right" side.

Visiting a castle. BB-8 is tough, he's so white he's hard to get a good exposure for. I set the later picture -1 stop, and then he's not so washed out, but the castle isn't as vivid either

I guess we haven't posted updates in a while :
BB-8's hanging out with friends at ECCC 2023 last weekend:
