DIY magnetic filter holder

I would like to quickly add or remove an IR-pass filter through magnets or something like that but finding a DIY solution is difficult. It needs to be DIY because I don't think its a good idea to spend 100 euros on getting a magnetic filter holder and ring attachment.

Would someone know a DIY trick to get the same effect?

Never tried a magnetic system but they do sell DIY magnetic holders for double glazing. You should be able to use materials from that.
