Thunder Duck 7 16ths of an inch, so just under a half inch. I agree, at the point where your engineers rule is physically hard to read, surely its easier to us millimeters haha
I find metric is best for precise measurements for simplicity but imperial units feel more natural for giving a rough size to say something is a few inches or feet. cm and m feel too small and big for rough estimates
@@shenanigansone8172 I see what you did there XD On that note for US folks it's not actually Impreial measurement system but "US customary units" and the latter is actually derived from the metric system by applying a conversion on the top (and yes, it's stupid).

From the top of where the braces need to be, its actually close to 5/16" , or 8mm. 7/16" is too low Overall though, this video has been such a treat to follow. Thank you! I got the entire hull done tonight and was dry fitting some of the variants :)
ah i see you have harnessed the dark and ancient power of magnets as well..... quick tip if you are working with many magnets mark the poles of your magnets in differnt colours you dont want two north/southpoles pointing at each other
Hi there. Great video. Is there any chance you can provide a list of all the magnets used in doing this project. I am about to embark on this myself and need to order them. Thanks.
Bro cool build! I actually want to build something and paint… similar to what you are doing but warhammer is not my cup of tea… can you recommend me similar things to build, paint and play? Thanks!🙏🏻👍🏻
Nice vid. Mi e should be arriving today for my renegades. I think we can only take one option but I may do this anyway just for narrative friendly games.

what is your ruler in increments of? im not familiar with imperial and your ruler seems to have 10 dashes instead of the 8 tried looking up inch ruler with 10 dashes and all i get are rulers with 8 dashes.
i just wanted an accurate measurement of the tank but inches is pretty atrocious for smaller objects and the resources online are only giving me rather rough estimates. would like a measurement as accurate as possible if you have any baneblades, leman russ, or rogal dorn in hand.
In the video you say about going back to the Magnetising steps but I've been through the whole thing and you don't really go in to much detail. Have I missed something ?
So the videos starts "build the model up to this point", so I did. Then later in the video, it turns out that the plates on the side where the sponsons sit need to be magnetised...
Ever seen what an Astra Militarum, Lords of War, 3000 point, Tank Only Army can do on the table top? I am "That guy". Lets face it, I'm playing to win. I'm not playing to be sportsman of the year. Pity GW lost the rights to the Imperial Guard IP. What I don't get is why it took people so long to realise that the models could be magnetised?
God I hate inch measurements when it gets below half an inch, so much more complex than CM and MM. Good tutorial still
thinking the same thing. Metric just seems a lot easier. The only place for inches these days is for table top gaming
Wtf is 7/16th????
Thunder Duck
7 16ths of an inch, so just under a half inch. I agree, at the point where your engineers rule is physically hard to read, surely its easier to us millimeters haha

damn this makes me want to get 3 baneblades now.
"Don't glue this tank tread here." *Vaguely waves hand over entire model*
Brilliant method for getting the sponsons on, I've been having a hard time figuring that out myself.
Thank you so much for the tip about the treads not being meant to touch the cylinders, I was losing my mind as to why my treads weren't assembling correctly
Could you please make a list of all the magnets you used? Thanks. This is the best tutorial for the octoblade by far!
y not put all 8 baneblades in 1 BANEBLAAAHHHHDEEE?!
This is a must with how much it is. Would be cool to see a marauder video if not done already
It´s the baneebladeee

good video, we need more guides for magnetizing certain models!!!!
From the top of where the braces need to be, its actually close to 5/16" , or 8mm. 7/16" is too low

Great video! Alot of the other octobaneblades vids are pretty low video quality and hard to follow.
Hi there. Great video. Is there any chance you can provide a list of all the magnets used in doing this project. I am about to embark on this myself and need to order them. Thanks.
so those four brackets are for placing in those small platforms. not the main turret part.
Bro cool build! I actually want to build something and paint… similar to what you are doing but warhammer is not my cup of tea… can you recommend me similar things to build, paint and play? Thanks!🙏🏻👍🏻
Hail Caesar is great if u want ancient battles, Bolt action if u like ww2, and Kings of war if u like the warhammer fantasy thing but cheaper
now you need a modular hull with RC added in as well... and lights... got to have lights to appease the machine spirit....
Nice vid. Mi e should be arriving today for my renegades. I think we can only take one option but I may do this anyway just for narrative friendly games.
The tutorial is pretty good, and had help me a lot, BUT jeeez, why in this world you have to do al the measure in inch???
the kit instructions also show the upper deck plate on the shadowsword back to front
Nice job. Any chance there's a tutorial like this for the Primaris Repulsor? If not you've given me a few ideas for it.
No sorry.

7/16th .... and this is why i love the metric system (11mm to 90% of the world )
Im just a product of a flawed system lol dont shoot the messenger...
Freedom fractions. ❤️
Yo Rob thanks for the video! Make sure to take care of yourself. You need to gain some weight and get some sleep! stay strong!
Rob you are a hobby boss.
Great video, the only thing I dislike is the imperial metric system lol
Devastator!
Great video, any chance you would offer a build service I think this is a bit out of my skill/time lvl
I'd do it
your a goddamned champion brother. This worked perfectly. ^^
I made exactly this with my 2010 first Baneblade
what is your ruler in increments of? im not familiar with imperial and your ruler seems to have 10 dashes instead of the 8 tried looking up inch ruler with 10 dashes and all i get are rulers with 8 dashes.
i just wanted an accurate measurement of the tank but inches is pretty atrocious for smaller objects and the resources online are only giving me rather rough estimates. would like a measurement as accurate as possible if you have any baneblades, leman russ, or rogal dorn in hand.
My inner Carpenter heard 6/8 and cried a bit
IT IS THE BAANEEEBLAAAADEEEE
In the video you say about going back to the Magnetising steps but I've been through the whole thing and you don't really go in to much detail. Have I missed something ?
*IT IS THE BANEBLLLLAAAADDDEEEEE!*
sounds goood a look in to as post will see
I messed up magnetizing the bainblade cannon. Here I am now
15:49 got ahead of myself putting that plate in. Not too sure what I can really do
small magnet sales are UP !
i should have watched this fully before starting to build it and magnetize it. BUT i am orking it up so might not be the end of the world
Anyone who has the measurement for the spurs inside the tank, in centimeters?
IT IZ DA BEHNBLEAAAD
octablade!!!!!
So the videos starts "build the model up to this point", so I did. Then later in the video, it turns out that the plates on the side where the sponsons sit need to be magnetised...
I've - - passed the don't glue steps...
Is it normal to have had to watch 3 advertisements by the time I'm 7 minutes into the video?
Measurements in millimetres for the rest of the world?
I hate the look of sponsons. I magnetized my rogal dorn the same way you did in case I am ever to play with someone who cares about proxy.
Tin isn't magnetic.
Ever seen what an Astra Militarum, Lords of War, 3000 point, Tank Only Army can do on the table top? I am "That guy". Lets face it, I'm playing to win. I'm not playing to be sportsman of the year.

og USE METRIC!!
I mean he is an American and in America we don’t use Metric
@@bloodravensterminator8594 , you do , only when yu need to be precise lmao , hi Nasa
All the cope in the comments from metricucks. Imperial Chad's stay winning
Why this man chose to use imperial instead of metric is beyond me.
Its all listed here. Sorry, this was the most difficult thing in your life today my man. Hope the day gets better for you bit.ly/Magnetbaron
@@spikeybitstv Stupid cringey every time you pull out your little ruler. It was funny and sad not difficult at all.
did you actually just say 6/8ths?!? HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
