In this egg you will learn how to get iron powder two ways. Everyone can get it this way, that is why this is a good egg! Now on to the egg.
WAY #1
The things you will need are:
--Hand warmers
--Strong magnet
--A cup
This is how to do it: Cut open the hand warmers and dump the powder in the cup. The powder will look like coffee just so you know. Now take the magnet and stir it in the powder and take it out. You will have iron powder on the magnet, so all you have to do is wipe it off into a cup. You now have iron powder!
Way #2
You will need:
--Magnet
--A lot of sand
This is how to do it: All you have to do is sweep the magnet into the sand and you will pick up bits of iron. collect it in a cup. You now have iron powder!
Thank you for reading my egg. Rate fair and comment if you rate down!!
