Does anyone have a superconductivity kit laying around?

Thinking it would be fun to get a dewar of LN2 and screw arou... I mean, do some cool science demos with it at a Tuesday meeting.

Unless "superconductivity kit" is another name for a common household item, I don't think I do. 

But I would *totally* be up for the so-called "cool science demos".

I think Praxair just down the street from the shop carries LN2. I'll have to call them and find out if we could rent a dewar for a day. 

Superconductor kits are usually just a pellet of superconductor, like so:


I'm hoping maybe someone has one they could bring in. Also some pyrolytic graphite would be neat.
