Does anyone know of a source for inexpensive magnafluxing equipment, or
plans to make your own? I can wind my own coils, if need be.
I want to be able to check for cracks in auto suspension and engine parts.

(Magnafluxing, for those who don't know: put an ferrous object in a
magnetic field, and sprinkle on iron powder/filings. Any cracks will
show up as a break in the field patterns.)
