Welcome back to another terrarium build! In this demonstration I build an actual levitating terrarium! Although the terrarium itself is somewhat a gimmick, there's no gimmick behind the fact that this terrarium is actually suspended in mid air. No strings, no tricks, just magnets.

As I said in the video, I have to give credit to Matthew for this idea. He showed off his terrarium in the November 2017 Terrarium Contest, using this technique. I thought the idea was so cool, that I had to make one for myself. Thanks again for the inspiration Matt!

I do like this terrarium, but there's one thing that I don't care for. You'll notice that the power cord is on the left side of the platform. Unfortunately, the viewing side of the terrarium defaults to this location, so there was no way around it.
