Hi

The thread title pretty much says it all. I've bought some 2*1 mm magnets on ebay, but they are too big to properly place on the joint of skitarii infantry. It seems like it's the smallest size on Ebay. Does anyone knows of a website where they have smaller magnets than this

Thanks.

Thanks, but I should have added that I live in Canada. The posting cost from the site you gave is outrageous (about 100$ for 100 magnets)

The flat rate is $9 when using USPS as the shipping method. You just need to click on USPS instead of UPS at check-out.

How much smaller do they need to be? 1/16" by 1/32" is still 1.6mm by 0.8mm, so it doesn't buy you a whole lot of extra space compared to 2mm by 1mm.

that's the thing. I was wondering if there is even smaller magnets than that. I'm a bit of a psychopath, so i want to completely bury the magnets in the mini.

Even with the 1/16*1/32 I doubt i'll be able to do it. Ideally, I would want magnets that are 1/32*1/64 but I haven't been able to find this size anywhere.

I use 2mm x 1mm, but also have 1/16 x 1/32, which is the smallest you can get. They are pretty tiny, and I am the same way, I put all my magnets so you can't see them.

That is the link to the guy I buy mine from on eBay. I've ordered from other people that said they had 1/16 x 1/32, but ended up they were 2mm x 1mm magnets. So these I know are 1/16 x 1/32 for sure. He even ships to Canada, just don't know how much.

Not sure if this will help in your country but for other people wanting this info in the UK is a company that is called First4Magnets, they do 1mm by 1mm and very good quality and pricing that I use for all my models.

Blocks rather then disk, but 1mmx1mmx1mm, and from Canada.

And disks, 1mmx.5mm, again, from canada.
