ok so ive got a defiler and storage is abit of a pain, the plan is to magnatise the turret to the legs but where can i get fairly strong little round magnets from!!! ne ideas?

Take some measurements of how big the magnets can be.

 

Then go to: http://www.kjmagnetics.com/categories.asp

 

Order magnets with N52 Grade (Stronger magnet)

 

I haven't magnetized my defiler yet so I can't help you but I have magnetized all my blood angels using these they work well.

Tried it on my deflier and with 4 small ones the turret doesn't stay on well, going to get a larger one from amazing magnets to give it more stability. Planning on doing the same eventually for the legs as space is a preimum for me as well.

cool sounds good thanks guys, ne idea what size i amy need?

you want a pretty big magnet to magnet. what i mean is i have magnetized mine, and i have a problem that the top keeps tipping. i plan on taking out the smaller magnets and replacing them with large ones. i plan to use magnets that are about 1/2 in to 3/4 in wide you dont need them to be very thick just wide. and make sure that they both lie flat on each other the other problem ive having is since one one of the magnets are on a flat edge, the top can roll which is the main reason it falls :huh:

Just a quick update, success with the magnets! not as big as i thought they were, got them from ebay but did the trick, earth magnets are the ones a got, and they are super strong so thanks guys for the advise.
