Interesting, thanks! I was reading another article that says it's very
slightly magnetic. When it's deoxygenated it's slightly more magnetic. But
it's still hardly magnetic at all.

No, its non-ferrous and not magnetic.

Yeah that's probably a bigger concern. For some reason I'm thinking
blood is mildly magnetic because of the iron in it. I could be wrong
though.

it would depend on how strong the magnet is. But I worry that I'll push
that sliver into my finger when I grab a hold of a tool or some other
object.

Jim, I was also wondering about that. Could a sharp iron filing be
attracted to the magnet enough that it would penetrate through your skin?

I'd like to try this but I work around metal all day and would be
constantly pulling iron dust and slivers of metal off my finger. HA Ha Ha

I am trying to organize a group of people that want to get finger
magnet implants in the pittsburgh area before the end of summer. Hit
me up if you are interested.
