Terminal Maxocity Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Hello all, I have uploaded a video on how to magnetize the new Tac Squad's Sergeant and Heavy Weapons Marine. Using this video will allow you to use all of the weapon combinations for the two. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffTibbetts Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 My magnets were too big for the delicate hands. I came up with the idea to actually put both magnets inside the arm itself by drilling much deeper. The magnet on the hand side is actually just glued to the back of the hand so it "docks" into the arm when you fit it. http://linguartisan.com/IMG_2281.jpg and then on the other side: http://linguartisan.com/IMG_2284.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reichfaust Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Will definitely, DEFINITELY be stealing that recessed magnet in the arm idea. Absolutely genius, can't believe I never thought of that until now. Kudos to you sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffTibbetts Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Just be very careful that you get it started straight on. I've gotten pretty close to the outside of the arm a couple of times. You can see the arm plastic turning white when you get close. But, once the magnet's in there it's pretty strong and makes a great fit. Super sturdy, actually.

Bronze Beast in the Dark Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 What size magnets are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffTibbetts Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 If you're asking me, I'm not actually sure the size. I've had them for ages and I never recorded what size they are. I have three different sizes that I use. Sorry... I wish I knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronze Beast in the Dark Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I went to the youtube page of the video (no idea why I didnt do that first) and it was mentioned that they were 1/16" x 1/32". I did an ebay search and found magnets that size listed as being Warhammer magnets. I also found some 2mmx2mm magnets listed as Warhammer magnets. I ordered the 1/16"x1/32" ones and when they arrive, Ill post a follow-up. It does appear to be the correct size, though. The 1/16"x1/32" works perfectly. Label says the magnets are: Diameter - 0.0063" (1.6mm) Length - 0.031" (0.8mm) I used a 1/16th drill bit with my pin vice and the hole was perfect.
