I know it can be done.
I owned a magnet based holdout which was covered on the outer side by a material that would prevent one's jacket from flying outwards toward anything a magnet would stick to. Just want to embed a small magnet inside my wallet without destroying credit/gift cards. Derek Merdinyan |

For real protection you need two separate wallets- your MAGIC wallet which has used up gift cards and out of date credit cards, and your REAL wallet which is kept in another pocket, or not on your person at all when you are out on a magic gig. There are also neck holder wallets and body wallets you can use for the real stuff to keep it away from the magnet. Using a magnetic shield is like asking for trouble, and when you lose something of value because of it, there's no one to blame but yourself.

Metglass may seem like the way to go!
I'll be careful Spellbinder, I am already deathly afraid that someday I'll forget I'm wearing a PK ring when I pick up one of those cards. Derek Merdinyan |

I work in a marina, they have sea searcher magnets for retreiving keys or any metallic items dropped in. while not in use the magnets have a steel plate placed over the 'working' end. I've noticed that this reduces the power. I assume the thicker the plate, the lesser the power, I think. it just converts the plate to a magnet with less power. a thought
