Could this map be hung using magnets? I would like to use it in my classroom, but want to be able to take it down if needed.

I think that would be hard. It is 3 very large sheets (think thick wall paper) that need to trimmed and lined up and then hung. I think it's probably really too thick for magnets unless you had a lot and they were very powerful. (It also comes rolled up.) I used wallpaper paste to apply.

Maybe very strong magnets but the nap is in strips like wallpaper so it would be difficult to hang accirately

It probably could, but you may need a lot, because it really is HUGE! The material is definitely heavier than normal paper but it is not too bad. Push pins might be another option if you don't mind a lot of holes in the wall ;)

Its pretty heavy, I hung mine using poster strips and it took about 30 strips per panel, and so three panels used quite a few, also you would probably have to use magnets more than just around the edges scattered over the whole thing. A better idea may be to mount the three panels on a huge piece of cardboard or plywood and prop it against the wall or up on a table or bookshelf

It's more like wallpaper. But I suppose, if you uncurl it, block it to stay flat, and use very strong magnets it might work. But it also has weight to it.

The map is cut in 3 pieces and is like a sticker, you would need to frame it before you hung it in your classroom, or use the magnets but remember is not a whole piece, there are 3 pieces.

Absolutely will work for attaching items to a laminated map. I can tell you though if it is in a hot area it will not hold on a verticle surface.

No, it is not magnetic, and it comes rolled up in a box. However, you could probably buy a magnetic dry erase board of the same size to mount it on which might work just as well. If you decide to go that route, you might consider saving yourself a little time & frustration and just take it to a frame shop or craft store and let them stick it on the board for you since they have the tools to get it on there straight and without bubbles and creases. Just an idea. Cheers!

Probably not. Magnet is OK, but not super strong, will likely fall off too if you leave it there all the time

The surface of the back is one big magnet, but I imagine you could affix those Command hanging strips to the back as long as they would stick to a magnet surface.

NO, I've used a lot of these magnets! They would not hold the pieces together. The Magnet isn't strong enough!

This is magnet in sheet form. You can hang other magnets on it IF there is medal behind it, but if you place the magnetic sheet on a wooden surface the other magnets slide right off. You use this to make magnets, like car door advertisements.

Sure...good idea, but then you wouldn't be able to stack them which are the purpose of legos right? The magnets wouldn't be strong enough to build on though. Hoped I helped.

It's made of metal, so magnets stick to it, yes. But it's not in any way magnetized.

I would say no. The magnetic paint is fairly weak. It worked well as the top layer (would hold 2-3 pieces of paper with a friggie magnet), but when I painted dry erase paint over it, the magnets would slide down the board. I did not have very good luck at all.

We have both the magformers and the magnatiles, while the pieces will stick together because they both have magnets, I don't think you can build anything using them together.

They are very lightweight since they are small boards. Magnets should definitely be able to hold them up. The most powerful magnet that holds up my tagboards (which are posterboard size) can be purchased at Daiso for $1.50 each.

You can screw a piece of steel strip onto the bottom of a shelf in your workshop and stick the magnets there. I haven't tried it, but I suspect that the magnets are powerful enough so that you could store the whole thing "upside down" and that the magnets would hold the plastic carrier on to the bottom of the shelf.

The wall map is rather large and we just used 3M two sided tape to hang it on the wall. If we were to frame it, we would have a custom frame built and border the map with a mat.

I think if you replace the adhesive with a really good double stick tape, it MAY be possible. We actually used ours for a membership drive "promotion" and used business cards on the magnets. We are going to try to reuse them next year. One thing - they really hold well and save your clothing from the pin picking!

No damage. We hung a HUGE US Map for a homeschooling class and hung it and took it down after class each week, so it is very durable.

Yes, totally doable. Its just a light weight cotton mesh, and the magnets are are in small sections, so they can be cut around. I just looked at mine to make sure and I see no problem with doing that. And if you mess it up, hey its only $10! right?? Carole
