Have one of the Harbor Tool devices in hand and will disassemble it today to
see if Paul and Jones are right on how they are doing it or if the wiki

Will not be hard to get an answer with a couple of pull scales and a yard
stick.
Will post the results and make available a picture of the guts of the thing.
It just depends on the items quality. A cheap unit is a simple magnet with a
leverage switch. You can test this by placing a magnet on a vice, close the vice
so the PM makes contact on both sides of the vice. Then twist the vice to
separate the magnet. Unless you're using some massive Neo's you should be able
to separate the PM's with one finger using the vice. There's probably countless
designs. Some cheap, some expensive.
