Description:

This magnetic periodic table is not only a fun way to create unique decorations like crosswords but also a complete educational tool to display the entire periodic table. It's perfect for learning, decorating, or organizing your workspace while adding a scientific touch.

Backstory:

I designed this project with two main goals in mind:

  1. Ludic and decorative use: Create fun crosswords or words using element symbols for home decoration or office walls.
  2. Functional display: Showcase a complete periodic table for learning, teaching, or as a stylish reference in your lab or workspace.

The screwable magnet caps solved early design challenges with magnetic fields affecting print quality and by ensuring compatibility with different magnet sizes. Now, I’m sharing the final version!

Included in the Set:

  • 118 Element Tiles (40x40x6.1 mm)
    • Grouped by category and color for easy identification:
    • Colors are customizable; feel free to use the ones you like!
      • Here’s my personal choice :
  • Screw Caps for Magnets
    • Fits fo 20x2mm or 12x3mm magnets
    • Includes caps, rings, and tops for various sizes
