Trying to figure out what size magnets to get and what parts of the wagon should I magnetize.

Any advice would be great.

what needs magnetizing?

use magnets from magnetix (little toy magnetic rods)and put one on a piece of metal and hey presto!

I magnetized the connection points for the front ram as well as the weapons mount in the turret. This lets me swap out weapons and replace the front ram with a death roller. For the forward mount, I think I used 1/8" x 1/32" disc magnets. The weapons mounts were done with 1/16" x 1/32" disc magnets

The ram and deff roller are interchangeable via their own pegs. They bend enough to make them easy to swap.

In fact, everything on the Battlewagon is pegged or slotted. The only place where you MIGHT need magnets is inside the cannon box part, and that's only if the slightly loose feeling irks you.


My advice is; don't magnetise anything.
