You can get them from Tandy, of course, but also check out Michael's and Hobby Lobby. They have assorted sizes and shapes, even some rolled magnets- all found in the crafts or jewelry sections.

I've just received a shipment from amazingmagnets.com

They are amazing. They are some sort of metal covered ceramic. In the extreme, (as I tend to push things. They can break. I threw one at a metal object from 10 ft away, but that's another story....lol

But I think they will be perfect for all the projects.

Perfect timing Josh I just got my order

from K and J this week. Great little

ceramic magnets although as stated

afore they are brittle if you let them

slap together hard. I broke about

two the first day playing with them.

I ordered the sample pack and the

six different ones used for clasps on

necklaces and bracelets. I got my

order in two or three days.

Try Walmart craft department for your magnets. They sell round in couple sizes and also couple widths by the roll. I bought a roll cause I had to make a couple neck sheaths for miniture knives. They are easy to work with and can be cut to fit with just a pair of shears.

Hobby Lobby sells purse closure magnet sets. I think that's what you're looking for.

Josh,

I doubt you will find any thinner than these.

They are 1/32 inch thick.

K J Magnetics has lots of variety. . . if you go to Ebay and search for "neodymium magnets" you will find tons of variety of different types. . . you can narrow your search to "neodymium disc magnets" and then you'll be able to find the thin ones the size you want. . .I use them on lots of small cases, etc sewn under a thin piece of leather.
