WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Carefully put some toner out of the cartridge into the glass beaker. You’ll only need about 50 ml.

Use the magnet on the outside of the beaker to test whether the toner has magnetic properties. Add two table spoons of oil to the toner.

Use a stirring rod to mix it until all toner is dispersed. Put a little of your mixture into a small container. Bring the magnet close to the bottom of the container. The fluid gets all spiky! Now put some of the fluid on a piece of paper. Move the magnet below the paper.

You’re making a ‘magnetic drawing’!
