Thanks for the link.
I am presently at 'work' out in Saudi Arabia and have plenty of available time to occupy. During some of this time I dream up all sorts of projects for when I get home - few if any ever seem to materialise due to calls on my time from SWMBO.
One such scheme was to build a small generator. Somewhere I had seen plans for one that used a shaped alnico magnet as the pole pieces. I couldn't find any suitable alnico magnets, so then wondered about rare earth magnets - hence the initial query.
