The Wooden Magnet

This is a 1-week assignment from Ben Light's Intro to Fabrication Class:

 

"Fabricate something using primarily two different materials.  Let’s say the project is roughly 40% one material, 40% the other.  The materials cannot be acrylic or plywood (unless you are gluing up your own plywood).  The work should be held together using fasteners of your choosing."

​

I want to create a “joke” out of this assignment, which makes my project not seems like fulfilling the requirement, but “secretly”, it does.
