Madmaardigan Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 In case anyone is where I was and had to snap hundreds of bits off there old models to exchange weapons and guns a little trick I figured out to save time. Magnetizing takes time and money but magnets regardless of what side you use attracts metal, so in the interest of saving time and money I now buy regular steel paper clips, sorry for no pics to help but basically; 1) install magnets at end of forearms 2) then where hand meets the weapons drill 1-2 holes that will allow paper clip of similiar steel wire in This saves cash and time because now you don't have to spend time worrying about all your magnets facing the correct way, and if you do this method all your weapons can be exchanged umongst you forces. I know this doesn't necessarily belong here per se but thought a lot of ppl may be experiencing this issue lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296753-snapping-off-the-old/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmaardigan Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 I can't upload images on my phone or just havnt figured out how lol, but yeah that why I put 1-2 lol I go with 2 strips of the paper clip usually just to make sure, but have gone to 3-4 if it's a single hand hammer for example just because it's the heaviest single hand piece. Try with some spare spruce first if your hesitant of butchering your already painted models I was too lol but ended up pleasantly surprised Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296753-snapping-off-the-old/#findComment-3809773 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmaardigan Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 That works too, I've heard of pinning just seems like it would fall off easier Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296753-snapping-off-the-old/#findComment-3809845 Share on other sites More sharing options...
