Finally got my deff rolla upgrade sprue last night. Here's a couple pictures of my magnetizing job. More pics of the sprue and brief review over on my blog :Watching Paint Dry (http://itslikewatchingpaintdry.blogspot.com)
I get my magnets from these guys: store.miniwargaming.com (http://www.miniwargaming.com/x.php?x=ptgraham&y=http://store.miniwargaming.com/&c=Bols)

Very impressive - what I like most about the model, though, is the checkerboard paintjob - how exactly did you do that? It looks at least partially airbrushed, and very professional. Nice work!

That's awesome. Any issues with friction when you spin the roller?

I did the same thing on mine. Are the arms on yours kind of shaky, mine move around a bit. Did you use a magnet to magnet connection or magnet to metal (washer)?

i've been fooling around with a converted Deff Rolla and was thinking about magnetizing it, what size magnets did you use?
