I would like to insert some button magnets (6mm diameter) into a WSF housing. I was thinking of making 6.4mm diameter holes and glueing in the magnets. Can anyone recommend a glue for between the metal and WSF? Would superglue be ok? Any help greatly appreciated. Tom
Using a thicker gel type superglue may work better than the thin stuff, although depending on the thickness and material type it might wick to the visible surface and cause it to be discolored. Priming the pocket with the right primer might help. 2 part epoxies should also work well. Consider using a pocket shape with sloped walls in a reverse wedge shape such that any excess glue that spurts up around the sides of the magnet can better hold it in place. A hole with sloped walls is hard to drill but it's easy to print!
