Neodymium Implant questions
Hi guys, I just joined the community, and I've decided to go ahead with the Neodymium implants.
Firstly, I was wondering whether anyone had any magnets left over from previous buys that they could send to Sydney, Australia? Preferably Parylene-coated or with Sugru, otherwise I think I can get them myself.
My other question is about the procedure itself. What's the better incision tool to use for this, a scalpel or a 6-8 gauge needle? I haven't found any videos of the needle being used, but apparently it's better?

My spares are gone to greener pastures already, I'm afraid.
@totemboy814: lidocaine or something similar. I didn't feel any pain. I did spend a fair amount of the procedure staring at the wall, however. I'd suggest asking the guys to send you a quick run-down of the procedure they'll use, rather than ask me.
I'd spent the previous half-hour giving a talk on having the magnet; I think some of them finally got it when they saw me grab my hand and flinch back as if I'd touched a live wire... ",)
