I'm looking at magnetising my Daemon Princes for my 40k army. I want to magnetise my wings and probably weapons, so I can swap and chose.

I have had a look at ebay and there's too many options to know what's right, with my extremely limited knowledge.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, I'm unsure what the numbers mean and will I need the "strongest"? What's the right material? Sizes and ect?

Thanks for the help.

The size is the one bit I can't help you on. At least not specifically, as I have no experience with the model in question. I can tell you, though, that you generally want to use the biggest magnet you can fit (knowing that you need to leave sufficient material around the magnet, if countersinking it).

Also, know that while the magnets have great pull strength, their shear strength is much weaker. For big, projecting parts (wings, long guns or limbs, etc.), you may find yourself better served using a combination of a pin (to take the weight) and a smaller magnet (to keep the part from popping off). Two pins and a magnet are even better, as it keeps the part from spinning.

I know that plenty of people here have magnetized Daemon Princes, before, so I'll let them weigh in with their experiences on size.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/586827/6669451.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/586827/6669451.page GMT

Believe me, when you're running Skyblight, like we are, you need a lot of magnets...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/586827/6670072.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/586827/6670072.page GMT
