    That is a great looking pin--good idea with the magnet, does it hold strong enough?

    Some magnets can hold the pin strongly enough. However, The Wizard of BC pointed out that the magnet also gets stuck to anything iron that you walk buy, including poles and bumpers.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    As Ted has said, I have never had a problem with losing my kilt pin using magnets. But to his other point, I am able to continue to fund my kilting by selling the scrap iron that comes home with me. The most profitable being the 1955 t-bird.

That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
