				<title>Magnets and green stuff questions</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ So i have done some magnetizing before but this time im in the process of applying it to 9 tyranid warriors and every single weapon option they have. So i've drilled my holes, but a few of them of course came out a bit uneven, or damaged the upper side of the lip that the magnet sits back in. <br /> So should i glue in the magnets first, or sit the magnet in position, work my green stuff to recreate the lip and then glue? Does it even matter?<br /> <br /> Also, as far as keeping track of polarity, of all these so any arm can go to any warrior. My thought was using a larger "master" magnet on my fridge and putting my small magnets on it and painting the face of them black and the back of them white. Anyone have a better faster way?<br /> <br /> Thanks for the help guys, i know the questions are kind of base level but they are things i haven't been able to find answers to easily online. And this is by far the biggest project like this i've ever taken on. Man, they have a LOT of options.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ On the green stuff question, it depends;<br /> <br /> If you think there is enough of a surface in there for the glue to hold, glue the magnet in, then <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span> over if you think it needs if.<br /> <br /> if there is not enough surface, put some gs in it, then put the magnet into the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span>.  Some people even put a drop of super glue to help the magnet stick to the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span>, but that might not be necessary.<br /> <br /> Regarding polarization....I make sure all my magnets are polarized the same way.   Keep a reference piece/arm/piece of plastic with a magnet on it/whatever in your work area as a sample arm.<br /> Anything that attaches to a body, magnitize it the same as the sample.   That way any arm/biomorth/whatever are all magnitized the same.<br /> <br /> Then magnetize any body/thing that an arm/biomorth attaches to, the same way.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ I've magnetised most of my Tyranid <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(93);'>MCs</span> and Tyrant Guard .  Yet to do any Warriors or anything smaller but done 2 Tyrants, 2 Tervigons and 2 Trygons, 3 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(536);'>TG</span>.<br /> <br /> To add to davethepak's great advice I've found a permanent marker a little better than paint (dries quicker) to mark polarisation. +1 to the use of reference magnets glued onto old bits of sprue.<br /> <br /> Also, when the arm joint is smaller or the same size as the magnet or i've broken the "lip", i just lop it off, glue the magnet on and greenstuff the joint over the top of the magnet.<br /> <br /> Hope that helps!<br /> <br /> Looking forward to magnetising the Haurspex/Exocrine when I get it too!  Not sure how the Harpy.Crone will go though....]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ I manage polarity, I did the following:<br /> <br /> 1.  Took a stick of about 10 1/8" magnets and wrapped them with tape to make a handle and use a pen to mark one end of it.<br /> 2.  Basically, if you can stick the handle on to any attached magnet, a free magnet on the other end will automatically be oriented correctly for the opposing part.  Note whether your pen mark is at the front or the back.<br /> 3.  As long as your free magnets keep being applied to the proper end, your magnets will always be oriented correctly.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ If the hole is too big you could always just drill <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(447);'>ab</span> it deeper and pop 2 magnets in if you have enough to spare, I just finished magnetising a whole box of <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(124);'>SW</span> termies and all loadouts plus a cyclone launcher I bought separately and I had to use the aforementioned trick on one hole. I love have all these options now. ]]></description>
