Hi Mike,
Do they have to be ceramics? If you can use neos they'd be pretty easy to get. Most places have stopped selling ceramic/ferrite magnets since neos came out.

They don't have to be ceramic .I was looking at a old web sight and that was what they were calling for. I don't see why neos wouldn't work as well

This is a good place to buy neos. (http://www.forcefieldmagnets.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=23_37)
According to a Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium_magnet), neos are 18x stronger than ceramic by volume. So you may be able to use smaller neodymium magnets to replace the ceramics in the design.
