Are DMT Single Sided Diafolds compatible with their Magna-Guide aligner?

Nope - I found this out the hard way when I bought an XC SS diafold for my Magna Guide kit. The Magna Guide will stick to the plastic side, although not very well, because the strong magnet is attracted to the metal substrate on the other side. However, even though the Magna Guide will stick, there is a significant enough height difference between the SS and DS diafold to cause problems. I ended up modifying my XC SS diafold, instead of buying a brand new DS diafold, and it works perfectly with the Magna Guide now.

Same here, a Zip-Tie was my fix though :D
