The downside of setting the quality bar high, is that not all magnets make the cut. Though the size glitch is only half a percent, they are below our exceptional established benchmarks. It’s not often we have an Oversize sale, but this isn’t the first time.

There have been a couple thousand sets collected the past five years that aren’t to spec, but they’re the next best thing to actual Zen Magnets. These Oversize Zens are about 1.005 times the expected 5.00mm diameter of proper Zen Magnets, which means oversize Zens won’t look bigger to the human eye, but absolutely shouldn’t be mixed with true Zen Magnets. The consequence of wasting geometric precision will be a mixture of low tolerances magnets that will never make flat sheets, or rigid sticks. And you’ll never be able to separate them if mixed.

The coating and the strength of Oversize Zens are 100% the same as true Zen Magnets. You’ll be able to see the reflection of the entire room off every sphere, and the surface smoothness also results in greater durability. And although the average size is larger than standard Zens, the Oversize Zens will interact with other Oversize magnets just fine.

The set will be packaged just like a normal booster set, and they won’t be marked differently from boosters so you’ll need to keep track yourself.

Each set includes 216 Oversize Zen Magnets, as well as:

· A 0.5mm PVC Card Tool
· An Embroidered Velvet Bag
· 6 Spare Oversize Zen Magnets
· Building guide (Limited time only)
· Microfiber cloth (Limited time only)
· Metal building platform (Limited time only)

A chain can be wrapped and rolled into sheets and rings. Sheets and rings can be connected and compounded to basic particles: polyhedrons, polygons, and even more complex 2D sheets. Stir some originality into the blend, mix in some creativity, saturate with spatial awareness and tactile technique, and add a dash of inspiration. What you end up with will never fail to surprise you and impress others. The 2D world deserves some attention too: there are millions of unique snowflake patterns, and Zen magnets are terrific for refrigerator art.

As a good habit, compose back into a 6 layer hexagon for storage. The poles will mostly cancel and potential for magnetic interference is minimal. This way your credit cards and harddrives will be safe in the same pocket. Not that organization requires an excuse.

As a chain of chromed magnetic beads, 216 Zen Magnets will measure over a meter long, and routinely attract more compliments than their precious competitors in the realm of self adornment.
