Hey 3D design bros, Love your work, saw your latest mag block, Interesting design.
I wanted to mention ( from engineering standpoint) having magnets that close to memory cards and other electronic equipment might be problematic( memory technology dependent). disclaimer or note might be worth while.
Magnets do not fit. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. They slide like three-fourths of the way in and then get stuck I applied a lot of pressure and it went in a little more but then the bed wasn't level and the print failed. Any help would be appreciated.
More then likely your filament is over extruding cause the opening for the Magnets to not actually be modeled size which is why they aren't fitting.
If you'd like to trouble shoot more I suggest getting posting the discord. It will be much easier to have a conversation there then it will be in the comments here.
If you are using Cura make sure to download as STL. We upload as 3MF files because that allows up to save print settings. However, Thangs will convert them to STL, you just need to click the down arrow next to the "download" button and you'll see all the download options.

Flash based media is unaffected by magnets, it's mechanical hard drives that are susceptible.
Dang, it's like GridFinity, only worse.
Is it possible that you also make them to hold 10x3 magnets, this is the only size thats easy to get in Europe
When is the best point in the print to add the magnets?
if you are printing at .2 layer height then its layer 54.

Was this exported from Bambu? It's not letting me open in it with Cura. "No models in file" error. Any idea?

All parts other than the felt templates are showing an error of "The Size of the Object is Zero and will be Removed..." in Prusa Slicer.
At what point do we need to add a pause to insert the magnet? It is cut off in the picture
If you print at .2 layer height it should be around the 54th layer. However depending on your settings you it may be sooner or later.
What you will want to do is slice it and then go layer by layer and you want to add the pause on the layer right before it bridges over the magnets.
Super weird choice using 2.6 magnets.
Thanks for this great design. I'm in the UK an I can't seem to find 10x2.6mm magnets, only 10x2 or 10x3. Would any of these fit instead? Thanks
I bought 10x3 magnets and they actually measured 10x2.66
yeah this is the same in AUS, I just got 10x2
