So here they are,them side mount covers.Being help by them fantastic rare earth magnets.Theres plenty of movement that can be had to position properly and these shots were just how i put em on.I didn't do anything flash with em in the end as you can see,the same as i always do when it aint gonna be seen really.I had planned something a lil different but then when it came to it,went the simplest way.
Magnet on the body and a bit of tin plate on the cover side of things.I did glue a piece of styrene to that tin plate for two reasons.One was to take up the gap between the tin plate and magnet and the other was to have a seperator between the tin plate and magnet.It's was a little too strong the magnet strength straight on the tin plate and i felt it risked one of the glue bonds giving way when removing the covers perhaps over time?Not sure but it feels betta this way anyway.If the magnet does decide to give way from the body i'd hate for it to shoot up the mount pipe,it'd be a real prick ta get out again.But this way the magnet if it does give way will stick to the mount cover itself and worst come ta worse should fall ta the ground.
Anyway,thats it for now,more ta follow,stay tuned!
