Default Magnet strength testing

Can your motor do this?

Just tested 3 motors, not even close to holding.
What kind of glue did you use?
Did you know that strong electromagnetic fields make Nasty Ice taste good?

Not sure about a 'fridge but my HH Torquemasters stuck to my tool box at work really well. And my Crawlmaster is always picking up washers and body pins off the trails.

I tested more than three. This is the only one that sticks. And notice it could roll down the fridge. It's not placed so it won't roll.

Nasty Ice always tastes good!

Here's that glue.

Probably. I got a few minutes of initial testing in, and I have another motor to try out, too.

The magnetic field is so strong it was pulling tools and screws all around my workarea, and I had to relocate to a clean spot on the floor.

Sorry, it's already installed in the truck, but I can promise you, it didn't roll. Here's a pic to tide you over (that tranny is plastic and aluminum except the 4340 outputs):
