I just did mine I had some rare earth magnets from work they worked great. I think you need any magnet with some pull to it.

P.S. Any problems enlarging the hole? Strong magnets are often a ferrite or ceramic material, very hard and brittle. Did you just drill it out on a drill press?

Their prices are unbelievable sometimes. If you find stuff on sale they are amazing deals. I bought a low-profile aluminum jack that has been decent for like half the price Sears wants for their craftsman.
