Goal is to mount plastic models on a wall for display but also allow them to be easily removed for play.
I was thinking of helping my son hang the models we built with fishing line like I did when I was a kid, but he likes to play with them, and you can really only appreciate the bottom of the model (the most boring side IMHO) when they are hanging.
Equipment & Parts List
0.5" Neodymium Magnets with 90 degree taper hole
0.5" Metal Washers
4x1/2 Phillips Metal Screws
High Strength Glue or Epoxy (I used Household Goop)
UPDATE: Laberatory424 sells the magnets with adhesive already attached

The real heart of the project is the tapered hole magnet. I got mine from Applied Magnets.
The washers I had already - and was happy to have silver and black. They need to be ferrous, so make sure they stick to the magnets before using them.
