[TheForge]magnet Q.

[Peter Fels And Phoebe Palmer]

Seeing as the ABANA publishing squabble has  floated to the top again..( 
it really is kinda surprising that so many strong headed people manage 
to get together and have so little 
acrimony)............................... a small distraction or 2.
1. I have a number of assorted magnets used for set-ups, mock ups and 
the like...should they be stored separately, carefully aligned 
north/south, to retain max  pull ( suck?) or is it not a problem just to 
toss them in a box with their friends?
2. The CBA spring conf tailgate sales yielded  an old Kalamazoo horiz 
bandsaw..got it  roughly aligned with new bearings ,blade, hydraulic 
rebuild etc...plugged it in and flipped the switch to make the first 
cut....and  the blade was going  briskly backwards! Huh??. Can anyone 
think of a reason why? Do i remember right that to reverse the direction 
one switches the red and black leads in the motor's wiring box? Been a 
long time.
 Once again, thanks for your help.....Pete F
