Anybody know where I can buy small and powerful magnets. I had a bund of them and had used them all for various things - mainly for securing cowls and hatches. By small, I am referring to about 1/4 inch diameter max. Its need to be small as they will usually be buried in the fuselage i some pretty tight places eg. cowling area. Using magnets is much easier to use than the traditional dowel and screw method for securing cowls and hatches. |

Plenty sold on line and cost is cheap but not the shipping cost (relative to the low cost of the magnets itself). |
