I was searching for a magnetic knife rack today and came across a DIY article on using magnets from a hard drive to build one (which somehow reminded me of this thread, as I have a bunch of old hard drives as well):

So I went out and bought a knife rack, then came home and started pulling apart hard drives. I ended up with a bunch of magnets and even more platters. Then I thought about a hard drive wind chime, and google returns:

So yea, I'll be making a few wind chimes this weekend. The magnets I'm scared of, though; don't know what to do with them as I bought the knife rack. A couple of the big ones from an old SATA drive can cause some physical damage if one isn't careful.

Anyway.
