    Lindsay books (Lindsey books? sp.) has a reprint they are selling
    about building an electromagnet for attracting nonferrous objects.
    They have material on normal electromagnets as well.
    The book on solenoids is very good. Graphs to calculate force for
    designers when a slide rule was state of the art computing.

    In most applications in which a coil acts on nonferrous objects, the forces
    are repulsive rather attractive. A nice paper that describes this
    phenomenon
    is http://members.aol.com/marcttpapers/ieee_potentials_2000.pdf
