Hi All,
I am in the process of making a stereo cabinet for my brother.The design is to have open shelves on the top half for the stereo equipment and the bottom half will have drawers to hold DVDs and Cd's that will be hidden behind 2 doors. The cabinet is 60" tall by 22" wide and 20" deep made from Burr Oak from a tree my parents had cut down years ago. I would like to use 1/4" diameter by 1/10" thick rare earth magnets to help hold the doors closed. I was planing to use 2 magnets and metal cups top and bottom for each door (total of 4 magnets altogether) When I got them there was a warning tag that said not to use them near stereo equipment. Could I still use them because the stereo equipment will be about 2 " above them with a 3/4" thick shelf separating them? Also could the magnets do any damage to the DVDs and Cd's that will be in the drawers next to the magnets?
Thanks,
Dave
