Yong-Wah, et.al. -
    You will need more than a power supply and leads and energization stick. It takes considerable expertise to do this right, and one definitely shouldn't try it alone the first time, even if the written instructions seem clear. It is pretty easy to damage the magnet or needlessly lose a lot of LHe. This is going to cost some money, no matter how you do it. And I don't even work for MR Resources.
   Good luck with it. You might want to post a report afterwards on how it went for you, to help someone who might get in the same situation.
