Customs Windcharger now with magnets

[Dvandom]

Still working on my review of this wave, but I had a little extra time tonight and felt like crafting rather than writing.

This is cool - kindof appropriate that the physics professor is playing with magnets.

When I was a kid, I couldn't afford good magnets (and most commercially available magnets were pretty sad by modern standards anyway). Then in college and grad school I could afford magnets, but too much of my stuff was on magnetic media and I was one oops away from damaging a floppy or a tape. But now...I have so many rare earth magnets. (I don't use 'em for miniatures, I prefer making pegs for swappable parts, but the fact miniatures people do use magnets mean that it's easy to find cheap tiny magnets.)

I found flamenco red paint matched the fists acceptably well, the wires are now painted over.

Here it is with the wires painted over.

Did you remove the wheels on his legs?

 

[Dvandom]

Those fold inside the boots. In fact, if you don't do that, the boots don't quite close up and you get some strain.

Oh ok. From the pic, I thought the wheels inside the boots are gone.
