Any recommendations on the type of epoxy? I would probably try something like SweetWater or another aquatic friendly brand. |

![]() Maybe this is a better choice (http://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=RX054E) it says its epoxy coated and appropriate for seawater.
Now how do I go about figuring out what size/strength is appropriate for which glass thicknesses? |

![]() I don't really know for sure. I was thinking of doing the same thing as you, but havn't tried it yet. It might be really easy to cover it with a thin layer of putty-deltec or something similar.

![]() I guess I may just order a bunch of magnets and try it out. I suppose I should order some different sizes, coat them and see what happens.

![]() You might want to look at these if your going to coat them anyway. I bought 25 of the 1/2 ones but they are still sitting waiting for me to complete the 100 other projjects. !/2 inch rare earth are very strong.

![]() Which size are those magfloats? The smallest ones?
Did you just use Super Glue to bind the frags to the magnets? |

![]() Yes they are the smallest magfloat but you can use up to the medium I believe. I used frag glue but super glue should work. Just beware though if you do drill holes to fit the small boston farm frag flugs into them the magnet inside is not covered by anything. That is why i put silicone inside to cover the magnet.

![]() You could also use a mag float. There are three on the back wall.
![]() And a close up os a cap and frag on one. ![]() Was in King ed one day they had four or five sitting at the front counter for 3 dollars each. I did drill holes in a few so I could put frag plugs into them. Ended up filling them partially in with silicone. |
