Bucky haz balls

I recently got some buckyballs. They are small highly magnetized metal balls that go into different shapes. They are meant as a geeky desk toy, and are probably really really hazardous as cat food.

Here's a pic of making them into circles. They are on a standard sized placemat, so you can see the scale of them:



And here's a more difficult arrangement I made by making a bunch of hexagons, and sticking them next to each other. I found it harder to get the little suckers to line up than I thought it would be. Definitely a good geek toy.
