"Did you know that if you take apart microwave ovens, there is a really great ceramic magnet inside of the magnetron?" There is also beryllium oxide in the ceramic insulators of most magnetrons. If the insulator cracks or is broken, that dust is highly toxic if inhaled. If you want a nice magnet, there are safer ways to get one. Leave the magnetrons alone.
