I have started magnetizing weapons for my war walker and falcon.
I bought these
nifty rectangular (5 x 1.5 x 1mm) magnets from first4magnets.com for the war walker.

| Eldar Missile Launcher before magnetizing |
 |
| Using a scalpel, the protruding part that fits in the socket is removed |
 |
| Make the new surface flat using a file |
 |
| Attaching the magnet with super glue (I used the end of a drill to apply the magnet) |
 |
| Leave i to dry |
 |
| Voila! |
The socket on the weapon mount had to be expanded a little to make it possible to fit the magnet. I used 2mm drill and a scalpel to accomplish this.
Make sure you get the polarity correct on all magnets you attach. If not, you might (as I did) need to remove some magnet to flip it.
