Glue!
Glued up the magnetic chuck this morning with G-Flex epoxy, it's a PITA to do. I recommend having a couple of clamps, a block to lay across each one as it's inserted & most of all, some small wedges to lock them in place, so they can't crawl out after they're set into position. It's a fiendish exercise in keeping them in place.
I would recommend mixing the epoxy & laying it into each groove, so it can't set up in the pot too quickly. Then use waxed paper or parchment paper to lay on the magnets, as they're set in the grooves. Slide the block as you go, while moving the clamp a little at a time. as each magnet is set & held down with the block, use the small wedges to line them up & hold them flat. Without a mechanical aid, it's about impossible to get the little bastards to sit in place without moving around on the chuck...
