If yer gonna go Cupping.. you gotta do it RIGHT!

**See original post below**

I have LOVED reading the comments about Cupping!! I should've mentioned that if you plan on going Cupping... the only REAL way to go and have complete SUCCESS with the cup staying on your car is to use the magnets found in old hard drives that are ruined or crashed or useless. I LOVE FINDING OLD HARD DRIVES!!! hahaha... They are like gold to me!! Just for the magnets!! I knoooooow... *rolling eyes*

Okay, so here's a quick lesson on the hard drive. Pay no attention to anything that doesn't say MAGNETS!! Cause really.. let's be honest! That's the only important thing in a dead hard drive. :)



Here's what they actually look like once they are removed!


There are 2 in each hard drive and they are kinda hard to get out because they are super powerful magnets. You kind of have to PRY them off, and a lot of times they break.. which is fine. They will still work. :) They are so super duper powerful that you can do lots of fun things with them like see if you can separate your fingers when they are like this.. (see below)


HOWEVER: BE CAREFUL because when you get them even remotely close to each other, they attract with such force that they will PINCH you and give you blood blisters. Ouch! It hurts! So I recommend stacking them and leaving them stacked. It's nearly impossible to get them apart anyways, but it's fun trying. :)

SOO, if you think that regular magnets from Ace Hardware or Wal-Mart will do the trick.. I'm here to tell you they won't. Maybe going like 15 miles an hour, but that's no fun! Because if you get going very fast, the cup will knock over and lay side ways on your roof as you're driving down the street. And if you didn't get weird looks BEFORE.. you WILL NOW!! LOL!!! So REALLY, you need to bring in the BIG GUNS!! They Heavy artillery!! The Super-duper Hard Drive Mags!!
My Roommate and I tested these and we put the cup on the side of the car as displayed below. We were able to go 50 mph before we lost the straw and 85 mps before we were afraid the cops would catch us for speeding on the freeway.. so really, we don't know what speed these Magnets can endure!! :) We got some great looks though!! :)




I can't believe I just gave a lesson about hard drives... I don't know anything about them except for the golden nuggets of FUN that lay inside them....
