– wood (we used maple)
– table saw
– sandpaper
– measuring tape
– drill
– forstner bit
– neodymium rare earth magnets (you want to use really strong magnets, ours were size 3/8 x 1/16, found on Etsy a few years ago)
– E6000 glue
– eye hooks
– stringDirections:
Cut wood to size using table saw. Each rail measures: 25” x 1.25” x 0.25” (you can customize the length to the size needed for the print you’re hanging). Sand boards. Measure & mark where magnets will go on your rails (we used 4 magnets in each rail). Drill holes in board using forstner bit. Glue magnets in holes, making sure the magnets are facing the right direction in the boards, so the sides facing out attract each other and not repel. Once magnets are dry, drill two holes in top rail for the pilot holes for eye hooks. Screw in eye hooks. Tie string around eye hooks.Have you done any engineer print projects?
