Flexi Link

Bill of Materials
- Aluminium Flat Wire - 5x1mm x 1: Details in Description.
Description
These flexible links have aluminium wire and magnets embedded in them, making them super fun to play with. You can bend them and they hold their shape, thanks to the wire inside. They also snap together thanks to the magnets.
Hardware Needed:
20 x D8x3mm Round Magnets (Maker Supply - CA008)
5x1mm aluminium wire. I bought mine from Amazon here.
Steps (Complete 1 and 2 before printing):
- Cut 10 x 50mm long pieces of aluminium wire (slightly smaller than 50mm will make it easier and quicker to install).
- Round the corners so they are not sharp.
When the printer pauses, place all the wires only and resume printing (important note: there is a second pause for the magnets).
When the printer pauses again, place all the magnets. I advise to alter the polarity on either side of the link. One you have placed the magnets, resume printing.
Wait for printing to finish and you are done!
