Mandala Set: Entropy beckons!

What is Mandala? Mandala is our boxed set of 1,728 super-strong rare-earth Zen magnets (equal to eight Zen sets) presented in a luxurious Sapele wood case – the ultimate in executive toys. Each hand-made Sapele wood box is as unique as the attractive Sapele wood grain and a pleasure to behold. The case interior is lined with thick maroon velvet and a molded cushion insert that is removable to accommodate additional magnets or other valuables. Included are a vibrant micro-fiber cloth and two 0.5mm PVC card tools designed by Phil Lewis.

The Mandala Set includes:

• 1,728 Zen Magnets
• 8 spare Zen Magnets
• Velvet-lined Sapele wood presentation case
• Two x 0.5mm PVC card tools
• Microfiber cloth

With this many magnets, you can really unleash your creativity and your patience will be rewarded with a feeling of great accomplishment when you give physical form to your imagination. You can architect advanced molecular structures out of dozens of basic particles. Form abstract doodads and objects as large as their exoskeletons can support. Engineer lovely repeating lattice configurations in three dimensions. Create complete castles or carry out your fractal fantasies…and then learn to let go. Try to resist the urge to smash your creations into a amorphous pile of magnetic beads, sure it will feel great to plunge your hands in to a cold pile of messy, knotted super magnets but entropy and chaos are always easier to do, than to undo and it will take two people at least ten minutes each to refine a chaotic kilogram of magnets back into a useful construction chain.

The Mandala is not the carry-in-your-pocket and play-with-in-the-car set. Expect to sit down on some clear ground and invest some time in your passion. Don't be intimidated. The Mandala set measures over eight and a half meters long, single file – for the discerning magnetic sculptor the quality and value is obvious.
