| Hi Joe search eBay for rare earth magnets. You can get square round cylindrical or flat. They only need to be as big as your thumbnail. | |

| 10mm square would be big ebough - Pete was kind to let me have a few and they are all different sizes. If you just want them to hold plastic together for armour building they dont need to be too large. | |

| I got my neodymium magnets from here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]I got the 1/2" x 1/2" x 1/8" think that works out at 12mm x 12mm x 3mm. Yes, just had to get the gold plated ones.  not too bad at 37.5p each. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.][You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |
