amphoterik Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Howdy everyone, I posted this in the general BA area a few days ago before I noticed this board. I wrote up a picture tutorial on magnetizing the Stormraven here: http://warbuilder.wordpress.com/2011/02/22...gel-stormraven/ Enjoy!

T3mpl@r Crusade Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 When I magnetized the turret guns I actually placed a large 1/8" magnet inside the two halves. I got it to fit by shaving the inside a bit with my dremel. What this allows you to do is have a strong enough magnetic force to have your guns attach themselves to the turret, but also lets you have the side plates that fit on the outside of the guns attached with magnets. I did notice that the guns were a bit flopsy though once I was done, the magnetic force wasnt enough to generate enough friciton to keep the gun level. Luckily I had enough room to add another magnet so that there were 2 magnets stacked on top of one another on each side of the turret and on each gun. (the second magnet was a 1/16") The alignment more or less holds the gun level. I wish I had seen the wings part before I assembled mine. I didnt have the patience to try and figure something out so I just glued them one :rolleyes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223684-magnetize-the-stormraven-howto/#findComment-2822280 Share on other sites More sharing options...
