Hi, A magnet will remove the iron filings, if you put the magnet inside a plastic bag first you can peel the bag off the magnet leaving the iron filings inside the bag - much easier than trying to scrape them off the magnet later. Adding water to the remaining salt / wood mixture and shaking or stirring will dissolve the salt. The wood shaveings can then be filtered off and washed to get rid of any remaining salt soloution. Finally the water can be evaporated from the salt solution to get the salt back. Hope this helps, Mike.
