Magnetising can be intimidating and showing people that you can do it without all of the effort and rare-earth purchasing horror stories was a worth-while endeavour.<br /><br />Cheers!GDMNWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14003947144311887937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319730648164622100.post-42842727993122118512010-12-16T09:04:43.649+00:002010-12-16T09:04:43.649+00:00Hehe, I did a similar thing with my first Rhino, w...Hehe, I did a similar thing with my first Rhino, with a Razorback on the way and a couple of Forgeworld Razorback weapons in the pipeline I should have a nice flexible transport Corps for my Blood AngelsMCThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16255132534364037915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319730648164622100.post-79349244413315345262010-11-07T18:08:20.057+00:002010-11-07T18:08:20.057+00:00thanks for the kind words, and glad that this arti...thanks for the kind words, and glad that this article was usefulDimmyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11748903925658560870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319730648164622100.post-89958841200123760052010-11-07T11:51:37.420+00:002010-11-07T11:51:37.420+00:00This is a great article and I am glad google direc...This is a great article and I am glad google directed me to it.
