Guys what if there were magnets in Minecraft? Imagine all the possibilities of new creations involving redstone and pistons!
Here's how it should work.
-mine for ferrite (relatively rare underground, not like diamonds but rarer than iron, and in packs of 4-8)
-Refine in the furnace
-combine 2 refined ferrite in the workbench
-obtain 1 magnet for 2 ferrites
-Use magnets in all sorts cool things!
I haven't put much thought into what they could be used for. So far I'm thinking metal detectors.
Post ideas here and let the magnet attract notch!

Cool idea... but put some more work into the uses, or some way they could bend the environment. Then you'll have more of a drive behind this.
Also, iron is a ferrous material. For a magnet, you'd probably want some way to combine iron & redstone. Maybe you could refine redstone in the furnace, then combine that with iron to make magnets? That would make more sense to me, personally.

That could work...
But the reason I posted it here was to get people to give ideas too. I just needed to get it out there, I'll compile the ideas people post here
