I'll stay dressed, if it's all the same to you!
I was thinking that I
could get those round magnets and embed them in the wood when I glue up the
blocks before I turn them. After they are turned, they could be
magnetically attracted to each other without seeing the magnets involved.
The question - would there be any "issues" with turning a glued up wood
block with magnets on the inside?
The only real "issues" would be avoiding hitting the magnets while
turning and maybe a problem with balance, depending on how big the
pieces are that you're working with, and how thin you turn them.
Other than that, though, you shouldn't have any problems, as long as
you use rare earth magnets and make sure you have the poles reversed
on them, so they don't repel one another.
Or you could start a new line for divorcing couples
