ive never glued the magnets back on such a big motor , but for a drill motor in a FW, I used araldite , which is pretty much just 30 minute epoxy , if you can get hold of some , jb weld should be perfect. :)
Dowel sizes are 7mm and 6.35mm I think. Have a read of this http://www.technobots.co.uk/Technical/G ... MagMod.htm you should be able to sort the dowels out from there.

I take it the dowels are aluminiun too, like the rings.
and jb weld weld it is then muchalucha :D

Arrrr Jamie ,it never did after, :angry: thats the benefits of experience, its when nothing is learned ,that when its sad
Hypnodisc beat us two times doing what they did best ,the second time they took out a motor,smashed the case oval,
so -- we moved the motors inboard, after that we took many hits from powerful spinners and none stopped us again,
even a robot with a lawnmower type drum on the front at Enginuity!!!!!! :proud: and kept going through, taking
serious
damage, the last one got us though Exterminator, I could and should have done better in that scrap, but got cocky, and
got what we deserved drove crap, :sad: the rest is history, Bulldog fought more than its share of spinners over the
years
everyone taught us new lessons, happy days,
Der Boyz
