One of my PCs has asked if he can purchase a magnet about the size of a baseball. My first thought was, Did they have magnets back then? After a little research, I'm still fuzzy on whether or not iron magnets would have been available, but I can see no reason why the PC couldn't find a lodestone for purchase.
But that leaves me with the question of how much attraction would a lodestone the size of a baseball have? How much would it weigh? What would the cost be? I'm rather scientifically inept obviously, and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
