A Yin & Yang fridge magnet, made for 5x2mm disc magnets.

Printing

This is made to be printed with its front side directly on the print bed with no supports. An 0.4 nozzle and a 0.2mm layer height worked well for me. The profile I have added here was used to produce the model in the above pictures with Extrudr NX-2 matte black and matte grey.

Magnets

For safety purposes I put a small amount of glue on a magnet before insertion. As the gap is tight to accommodate optionally using no glue, the easiest way to do this is to put the magnet on the back of a metal spoon, dab the glue, carefully align the magnets over the holes and apply pressure. It should pop right in.
