I don't understand what the writer is experiencing. I am able to drag my infinite stack of Magnetite into a single Assembler slot and the Magnet appears as the product instantly. If I then drag the product out into an inventory slot, another Magnet appears. If I drag the product into the same inventory slot a second time, I then have an infinite stack of Magnets.

To prove this, use the multi-touch technique and you'll see that you can put a magnet into each Assembler slot:



Even if the first part (putting the infinite Magnetite into the assembler) didn't work, you can also use the multi-touch technique to place a single piece of Magnetite into each of 4 different slots in the Assembler, then stack them into a single Assembler slot, and again the product (a magnet) appears.

Either method is a lot simpler than what is described in the article (which says that you have to mine Magnetite one block at a time, and stack them into the Assembler manually). Is it possible that description applies only in Explore (survival) mode?
