As I said earlier, the magnetic sheets are adhesive backed and cut exactly to fit the 4L and 9L ‘Really Useful’ boxes.

The adhesive side is very sticky once the backing is removed so getting them in the right place was a little tricky, however they fitted perfectly and the bond between the adhesive and the box bottom is very strong!

The next step was to magnetise the miniature bases.

Using Milliput as an adhesive and a filler, I attached magnets to the underside of my miniatures.

Prepare Milliput and gently press in a single magnetPrepare Milliput and gently press in a single magnet
Gently press the Milliput onto the underside of the base with the magnet facing downGently press the Milliput onto the underside of the base with the magnet facing down
Place the miniature on a flat surface and gently press down. This fills the gap between the base and the magnet and ensures that the magnet will be flush with bottom of the box Place the miniature on a flat surface and gently press down.

The Milliput takes a couple of hours to cure but once it does it’s rock hard and creates a solid bond between the magnet and the base.
