I was thinking about this again this morning and of course their is the model boat way of doing this by using propeller rod which has a thread on the end and then you can just use a bolt glued to the plane and are able to screw it on or off. They are made of brass and are fairly cheap.

In a similar vein, you could probably cut a thread into regular rod (and even the mini) if you had a small enough tap & die set. I think there are jewellers' sets that wouldn't be too expensive.

Peter,

Check out this site (one of many that carries it)

Acrylic rod, offered in sizes form 1/16" round to 1" could have a magnet bored or epoxied to it pretty easily.
