OK - I hated that the gun didn't stay in the backback so - the magnets are in...what do you think? I am going to paint over them in flat black so you won't even notice they are there...

Ok that's a pretty sick idea dude. It reminds me of the Star wars figures that came out with the little magnets in their hands so that they could hold their lightsabers.
By the way how did you do that? Did you drill little holes into the plastic to place the magnets inside, or did you just glue them straight onto the plastic?

That's cool. Where did you get little magnets like that?

I bought them here;
https://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddeta...rod=D101%2DN50 I bored a hole with a 1/16" bit by hand then pressed them in with a tweezers...Got one set in backwards at 1st so one was repelling...quite a pain to switch around. Since I have close to 100 more - I will be having much more magnetic fun. |

Nice. I'd probably do the same thing if I didn't display my Joe figures around my computer desk (the unshielded magnets could potentially distort the image on my monitor). As it stands right now, I'm using clear rubber bands to keep the grappling gun in place.
