				<title>Magnetizing a Tau Devilfish</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I was on the fence about customizing my Devilfish as I had not assembled any vehicles yet. I figured I would just glue this one shut and work on the next one, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.<br /> <br /> I've pinned and magnetized the two side hatches using 1/16"x1/32" magnets.<br /> <br /> I stabilized the door with some blue-<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(167);'>tac</span> while I drilled:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishHatch1_zps2d9d55bc.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> Got my hole in the frame:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishHatch2_zpsc16fb1ba.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> Pinned the hinge:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilFishHatchFinished2_zpsea39b915.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> And voila:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishHatchFinished3_zps655a4a1d.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <br /> I also magnetized the Seeker Missile. I used two 1/16" magnets so it won't spin, cut the mount down lower so I had the extra plastic to support the hole I was drilling:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/SeekerMissle_zpsefcae45e.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> I used 1/16" magnets in the missile, and 1/8" magnets in the 'Fish to make sure I had a secure hold. First I marked my holes and drilled all the way through so I knew where to bury my 1/8" magnets:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle1_zpse27dcd28.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle2_zps247b2b59.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> All the holes drilled, as you can see I messed up the placement of the right missile, it was too far back, but I caught it before I got too deep:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle3_zpsd35ba14d.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle4_zps2398b11c.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> Magnets in, grey stuff'ed over:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle5_zps86dd1404.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> I'll need to go back and sand down the extra that got pushed through when it's all dry, but I like the positioning:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle6_zps9abedf19.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle7_zps2483f5c0.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <img src="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk259/DRisThor/DevilfishSeekerMissle8_zps16965815.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> I'm working on the hatch and spotter next, hopefully I'll have pics up of that tomorrow.<br /> ]]></description>
