Water, fire, air and dirt Fucking magnets, how do they work?

I got my magnets last night - wasted no time diggin in and getting some on my trukk. Before I posted pictures yesterday I decided that I was going to magnetize the boarding planks, in case I ever went to a wysiwyg (what you see is what you get ) tournament and wanted to run boarding planks.

Grabbed my drill and started punchin holes. and glueing magnets in place.


There is alot more to placing magnets than I had initially thought, You want to keep the polarity on all spots the same, so i can swap planks and i dont have to think about which plank goes where, and what not. 


I also got a little over zealous when drilling, ended up having to clip tiny slices of plastic from my sprue's to fill the holes so the magnets were flush. That was actually a nightmare.


In the end everything turned out as I had hoped. I think the planks turned out great.
