I'm building a couple of scale warbirds and civilian aircraft and I cannot find a source for the small
rare earth magnets that come in some foam models to hold hatches shut. That's what I want to use on my airplanes to hold hatches closed.
Does anyone have a clue on where you get these small round rare earth magnets?
Thanks in advance,
Andy

I picked up some nice ones at Rockler. They also have cups and washers for disk magnets here: http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?p...3&cookietest=1 Another place I've bought magnets is at www.magnetsource.com.

Hey Andy,
I got mine from Magcraft in a 100-piece lot. Very affordable! They supply them in various sizes and shapes for most any purpose. Here's the link: http://www.rare-earth-magnets.com/Se...=Disc&All=True
