Step 2: Cut

Saw the wood to the appropriate size.

Step 3: Mark Drill Holes

Mark the pieces of wood to drill holes for magnets.

Drill the holes deep enough that the magnets are flush with the wood surface.

Step 5: Glue

Glue the magnets in place.

Step 6: Cut Rubber

Cut some gasket rubber to the size of the wood blocks. Tooling leather would also work well for this purpose.

Step 7: Glue
