Gridfinity Bin 1x2 with Small Parts Magent Tool

Please keep all these small parts away from children and pets, some parts have pointy ends, and they could be a choking hazard too.  Make or use these models at your own risk.

I found that after loading up my case with small screws, it was a bit of a pain to get them out. I previously designed a magnet pickup tool which uses a 5x15 magnet, so just did something similar (with a bigger 6x25 magnet) for this model. The reason for the larger magnet is due to the less powerful magnetic attraction of Stainless steel, so I though a bigger magnet would help (and it does).

This print is straight forward, and the only thing I can recommend is a brim for the tool handle. I tried out a very light fuzzy skin on my print, which looked OK, but that is just a suggestion.  This bin is a 1x2 6U size.

Assembly info:

I thought I would need to superglue the magnet into the handle, but as it turned out it's a snug fit without glue. I just pressed the magnet in, but it does take some work - though no tools should be required. If using this with a case though, be sure to press the magnet in far enough that the lid will close (it has to go all the way). If you find that the magnet won't press into the handle, there is another model with a looser bore (6.4mm) which you can use (2x1X6U_Magnet Pickup Bin_V4T_TOOL_HANDLE_LOOSE.STL), but that will require glue.

Be careful when installing the magnet in the tool handle, since if too much force is used the magnet could break or fracture (to be save safety glasses and gloves are a good idea).

If you find these models useful, please post a like or a comment with some pics of your prints.
