What is a good size magnet to use on imperial knights in the torso, I have seen lots of tutorials on how to do it but they all seem to have forgotton what size magnet they used.

I used two magnets exactly the size of the peg on the hip.

Cut off the hip peg, put a magnet there.

Inside the torso, glue a piece of sprue over the hole with a magnet attached.

Voila!

I think he wants the size in numbers so he can buy some.

Yes, I do in fact as it is quite difficult to guess from pictures and videos online.

Make sure the magnets you use are the stronger N52. If they aren't N52 you will regret it.... N40-42 are not strong enough, no matter the size you use to hold the torso together. Not without fliplopping all over the place and coming apart at the slightest touch.

No matter the project, N52 or nothing at all.
