Magnetising Landspeeder bases


Recommended Posts

Hey all

 

Looking for some advise. I'm having trouble finding a good way of magnetising landspeeder/skimmer bases for a magnet case + magnetising the stem and model. I know there's Magnet baron but it's VERY expensive (especially with postage to UK) and I'm sure there's a DIY approach. Has anyone done it, if so how?

would the rotation magnets for xwing miniatures work? or is the landspeeder to heavy?

 

e.g:

Yeah That's a good idea. The next step is find a base that can be magnetised so it'll stick on a magna rack. The other problem is skimmer stems are pretty flimsy and I'm not sure they'll take a magnet ball

I stuck a lump of green stuff on the skimmer stem, put a 2x5mm neodymium disc magnet on it and glued another magnet under the Land Speeder. They've lasted well since 6th edition, the magnets are strong enough that I can hold them upside down.
