OK time to attach the magnets. 

These powerhouses should be spaced apart fairly well and taped down with the duct tape to keep them from sliding around and flipping over and pinching you and smacking into themselves and breaking and other nasty stuff. 

On one side you may want to add washers. If you face this side outwards it will make the pull of the magnet a bit weaker and less 'sticky' which I prefer. They also prevent unnecessary snapping to the magnet. Like I said, these things are kinda fragile. So if something is gonna snap/slam onto your chest it would be nice if it was snapping to steel and not to your magnets... potentially breaking them or scratching the epoxy covering.

Lay down the magnets one at a time with the tape!  Also make sure they all have the same pole facing outwards at the washer optional side. 

Don't worry about the washers moving around. These magnets aren't letting them go anywhere, trust me.
