Thanks! If still possible, I'd like to ask the following:
Who performed the insertion procedure? How long does it take to heal?
An N52 is very strong. Did you experience any unexpected negative side-effects while handling everyday objects (weight training, smartphones, et c.)?
Apart from the ring, have you tried achieving the same thing externally (i.e. without an implant)? Do you think it would be possible to "come close"?
him: "A body artist. It took about 3 weeks to close. Not sure on internal healing. A month, maybe.
Not really any issues. It stings a bit if you hold something too long. Pinches the skin between the object and the magnet.
You could try supergluing one to the side of the fingertip."
Him: Implantation is still the best way. If i could get resourses, anesthesia, coated magnet, surgeon (so to speak), and enough downtime, i'd do it for study.
Me: why surgeon? going deep enough?
Him: Cleaner incision.
