I've noticed that in my school, we often use infraboards to display our projects, pictures, and information. But even though those infraboards are generally reusable, people, more often than not, just throw them away. So I held a survey, asking students some of the reasons they don't reuse the infraboards. The most common answers were that it was hard to remove the paper glued on, and infraboards took up LOTS of space. So I decided to make these 'Healthy Infraboards', that not only make it more convenient to keep and reuse, but also helps the environment by reducing the amounts of infraboards thrown out.
I figured making a metal one would be best, since it's way more durable than plastic, and if I used aluminium, it would be lighter than other magnetic metals like steel and iron. The problem was, if the information were to be stuck on using magnets, aluminium would not allow a magnet to stick on to it, even without a heavy paper weighing it down. But thanks to the amazing property of magnets, they can be attracted to one another, even with something non-magnetic in between them.
