Can it be done?

I - ahem - demagnetised my mini magnets :rolleyes: :eek: No one told me extreme heat causes demagnetisation - really should have listened in physics I guess...

Either way, anyone know if it can be done, where new magnets can be bought, and how to do it? :eek::)

I can guess what Tom was doing, to his nearly swoop trigger ;)

As far as magnets go, you can get some replacements from KEE, OR you can buy some rare earth magnets and have a go yourself :)

as for the doing of it, no idea. You could always ask JonBon for some advice. You could probably pay him with Diet Coke :)
Close, but no cigar Bolter ;) I'll PM you back and tell you what I was doing provided you'll keep it on the downlow ;)

Regarding the magnets, spoke to Leah earlier and KEE don't have any :( I've got her to speak to JonBon for me, I'll have to bring some diet coke to Belgium ;)

magnets ebay em

magnets ebay em. Get some rare earth magents off ebay.

they have em in any sizes eg 3mm by 2 mm. i got some for to customise my hopper lid. Am sure you can get any size thickness or get some really thin ones and put one on top of the other to get the exact strenght you require.
