in rec.crafts.metalworking the following:
Run magnets through sand, by your windowsill(or any place that
collects a lot of dust, really)and try your best to remove the
filings from the magnet. It ain't easy!
That's not how you make them
That is one way to collect iron filing.
To make them, take a block of cheap iron/steel, and a file. Or a
grinder. Or a sander. Or just rub the metal on the concrete.
