Dwango Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) Hello all Further to my question on how to magnetise aeldari vehicles for storage, I randomly came across the following on an ebay listing. Sadly I've had no joy in working out what it is. Its a small metal tube with teeth that small magnets can fit in. It should even stop the bikes from spinning on their axis with out the need for multiple magnets being installed. As always any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers Edited November 19, 2020 by Dwango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 That's not a GW standard piece, but probably exactly what you say it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwango Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 No its not. Im just trying to work out what it is called so I can do a Google search and get some bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendi Warrior Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 The part on the right (protruding from the model) makes me think of shelf cleats, the other might be a related socket. Maybe from DIY or specialised stores? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovemberIX Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Looks like a small Hirth style coupling, I dunno why but it looks like something related to cycling or even automotive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwango Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 Well that's getting closer. Thank you for that! Just need to work out what to put into Google to get what I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovemberIX Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 So I kept looking wondering why would someone make a coupling like that (mechanically it makes little sense), as I clicked my pen in thought, and like that it....clicked.... https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Ballpoint-pen-actuator-Twist-type-shiny_62061770862.html?spm=a2700.details.deiletai6.8.71285e7bVzFvF7 Dr_Ruminahui, Dwango and Lord Raven 19 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwango Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well that's very interesting and has got me looking around my house for suitable pens to disassemble. I'm going to try one tonight and see if I can get it to work. This could very well be inspired! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
