The magnets for optional weaponry are a neat idea! But where do you get these micro-magnets from?

Well if you need any help or technically expertise let Me know .... if your going to equip a whole army with interchangeable weaponry ..... I suggest a model or one solder for a template to check the weapons against Him .... for correct magnetic polarity ..... then make all figs like him and make all weapons on Him .... ldguy

 

[Gator]

That's sharp.

 

[Swordsman]

Thanks ...... Kenny ..... I'm glad you like it ..... I'm fixing to go and get on painting the rider and finishing up His weapons ....... ldguy

 

[Swordsman]

Working on the Twin-linked cognis auto-cannon ......

Need to drill barrels

Center spot located .......

I love this little yankee drill ................ ldguy

I made the holes bigger ....................

Started holes for magnets ............. That's all for now ....... ldguy

 

[moon puppy]

I always have trouble hitting center when drilling out barrels. I know the technique for drawing center but getting the drill bit to hit it and cut dead center? Nope...

Looks good Gerry.

 

[Swordsman]

Thanks MP ..... After you get your eyes synchronized ...... then you drill at a angle to get closer to center .... then stand drill up ..... I drill by eye ..... so I get off ever once in a while ... ldguy

For finding the center point for a drill, I always take a sharp needle and poke a slight hole first. If it is in dead center I then make it bigger. If it is't in center I adjust until I have it satisfactorily. This makes a pilot to get the the hole started and centered. I also have another needle that has been sharpened so that it has 3 sides on it coming to a point. On tiny stuff I can spin it and make a nice hole without spreading the plastic. Hmm another thing for my Tool Time thread.
