Putting magnets on two more knights. Going well except i'm puzzled on battlecannon and thermal cannon. Previous way works barely but not that well and it was pita. Anybody have good way? Specifically barrel. Pictures please if you can help!

Forget about magnets for that part.
You're better off using some tube and creating a pressure fitting.

This was a good tutorial.

8 minute mark for that specific detail.

Thanks! That actually seems to have done the trick. Magnet attempt didn't work out too well(barrel ends up in weird lopsided thing) but tube seems to be doing it's job. Will be bit tricky having tubes glued up aligned but with first 2 pieces maybe I can use those as guides.

Was already starting to think just gluing barrel of each in place. 1 so-so modular for both, 1 of each fixed and one fixed errant. Figured I don't think I need 3+ rapid fire battle cannons or 4+ thermal cannons at the same time(that requires more hulls anyway as I dislike spamming same knights so using all with thermal cannons for example would be boooooring) but since this works even better.
