Those magnets really rock. That's all I have to say.

Default adhesive and cleaning pad

you can buy replacement pads for the rare earth magnets they sell at JL. Looks like you could get a 1 inch forstner bit to drill a couple of holes into a piece of wood and then glue the magnets with Bulldog construction adhesive making sure the magnets are flush with the wood surface. Then get the felt replacement pad and glue it to the surface. That should get your outside piece ready. I recently replaced my felt on my Hammerhead and that looks like exactly what they had done. As far as the inner piece, let me know how you put it together.
