Hey guys, I'd like to Magnetize my Ork trukk ramps, but I need a very, very small Magnet for each side of the hinge (I'm talking like maybe 2-3 MM wide). Is this the correct method of going about this or does anyone have any comments?

I also have no idea where to find magnets, so some recommendations would be great

Edit; found some here;

Not sure if they'd be strong enough however.

Edit 2; So the drill bit I have that's a perfect snug fit is 7/64", but I can't find a Magnet of that size. Thoughts?

They'll be strong enough. It will still swing freely, in a magnetic hinge.

You will need 2 for the plank, and one each for the sides of the truck where it mounts. Also, two more (or some other kind of restraint for the plank when it isn't deployed) to hold it in place would be useful.

Awesome, thank you.
