Pretty sure what I'm looking for is out there, just don't seem to be able to find the right search term. It's a flexible rubber or vinyl based magnetic strip. Size is not critical, but 1/4 x 1/4 x 12" long would be handy. Larger/smaller/longer okay. I can find all sorts of flat strips but nothing with any height/thickness to it, which is what I need. Pretty much everything I can find is adhesive backed which won't work. I want it to create oddly shaped forms for casting items out of plaster and/or epoxy. Any leads appreciated. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | ||

Google ‘flexible curve’ and see it that will work. War Eagle! | |||

Bingo! Not magnetic, but I can work around that. This place never fails to amaze. Thanks! Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

Most any appliance repair parts store will have magnetic gaskets as used on refrigerators. Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming…......WOW! WHAT A RIDE! | |||

Another good idea. I'll look into that. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

Did you punch in "flexible magnetic strip" in Amazon? There are dozens of results showing rolls of magnetic strips in various widths. | |||

Nevermind, I'm seeing you are needing it with 1/4 thickness | |||

Yup, that's what's limiting my options. Doesn't look like the magnetic gasket thing will work either, due to the odd profile. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

McMaster Carr has 1/4" thick cut-to-size flexible magnet sheets. Not entirely sure you can cut them into 1/4" strips, but maybe worth a try. https://www.mcmaster.com/magnets/flexible-magnets-5/ McMaster Carr is always the first place I look when I need an odd piece of hardware or material or whatever. | |||

https://buymagnets.com/shop/12...U9da08waAtuJEALw_wcB There's an option at the bottom for 1/4" (.25) x 3" wide x 60" roll. I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log. | |||
