I have recently decided to start magnetising my models and I was wondering if I need to take extra care with forge world stuff. Do I need to be more gentle with resin stuff than plastic or metal? Is there anything I should know before I start? Do you have any advice?

“Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls.
The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does.
That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

One thing to remember is that if you are drilling resin, make sure to wear a mask or some sort of device along those lines. Resin shavings will get in your lungs if you dont. Other then that, resin is softer then metal and plastic, so you just need to keep that in mind.

I'll bear that in mind, thanks. I take it resin in your lungs = bad day?
