In this episode we show you how to create your own pair of Hover shoes which will allow you to "float" over any predominantly metal base. In the video we use the garage since it has metal beams embedded in the concrete but you could do this wherever you find a strong metal flooring.

You need:

  1. Soldering Iron
  2. Solder
  3. Wire
  4. Shoes
  5. 50 lb lift magnets
  6. 2 9v batteries
  7. Glue Gun


The 9v battery will turn the standard magnet into an electro-magnet giving it more lift for a small duration of time.

Enjoy!
