Hello,
Can someone please tell me where i can find good quality but inexpensive magnet? I need to put it as a backing on wood. Where can i find sheets or cut up pieces of magnets. And will glue hold it in place? What is the best way to attach them on pieces of wood?
Most of the magnets in that cabinet are broken pieces and are the brown ferrite type. The last time I needed magnets I got them at Tanners. Don’t know how many you need - but you don’t have to go fetch, have them immediately, and can feel the strength. If you need a lot of them then online is best bet.
I like supporting Tanners - great to have them close by. Another thread talked about giving Fellowship to people that recruit people for DMS. They’ve probably earned lifetime memberships. It is rare when doing tours there isn’t at least 1 person who says they were referred by Tanners.
BGmicro in Garland has quite a few. They do not have open shelves like Tanners but you can do an internet order, check Hold For Pickup and usually pick it up within an hour. I think they sometimes work purchases with Tanners.
Hobby Lobby sells magnets of Darius strengths. Not much selection on Rare Earth magnets but have some which would be fine for photos, refrigerator magnets and the like.
Their 40% off coupon makes prices affordable.
Hint: bookmark Hobby Lobby on your phone: they accept the coupon directly off your phone’s screen.
