Railway modellers frequently use magnets for hands-free uncoupling systems, the miniature one here could see use for holding details in place like figures and cars on portable layouts if a little ferrous metal is embedded within or under the layout surface and the magnet attached to the model.
Bigger magnets could see use for holding lightweight baseboards together because they are incredibly powerful, so powerful that they’re supplied with a health and safety handling information sheet!
