Lego refrigerator magnets

Step 3 Build your collection

I like the look of the classic bricks but any Lego piece that has the cylinder can be converted to a magnetic building block this way. Naturally the thin plate pieces would need a very thin magnet which would probably not hold very well unless you had many of them.

This project may seem familiar to some. I wrote up these magnetic Legos (Lego? What is the official plural of Lego?) on my personal website in January and Make Blog picked it up.

LEGO is the proper name of the company that makes the bricks.  The "pieces" are called bricks!  You should refer to them as LEGO Bricks and not LEGOS!

Legos is easier to remember.
