3D model of thenewhobbyist
The models were repaired and checked for printability.
I thought I'd make an update to my daily carry card case.
The lid is held
...Show more in place using small magnets I picked up at Home Depot, they seem to be pretty standard size (8mm x 3mm) so they should be easily sourced.
Printer brand:
MakerBot
Printer:
MakerBot Replicator 2
Rafts:
No
Supports:
No
Resolution:
0.2mm
Infill:
50%
Notes:
The case can be printed at a lower infill but I wanted something a little more sturdy.
Insert Magnets
The magnet (8mm x 3mm) holes are 0.3mm larger than the magnet in all dimensions. So they should press fit pretty tight into the case.
I dropped a dot of super glue in each hole before pressing in the magnet which seems to be holding well.
