Magnet Presser with Stand

At times, the magnet location is just too deep in the 3D print, or magnet flips when installing, or the hole is slightly too small to provide easy installation. I have a solution for you.  I very much appreciate the style of Brian Dean’s “Embedded Magnet Dispenser Tool for 3D Prints” but using them often resulting in CA glue adhering the magnets to inside of the dispenser. 

The Magnet Presser with Stand was designed to facilitate installation, especially in deep and slight undersize recesses.  Often a tap with a craft hammer is all that is needed to fully seat the magnet.   

Construction

We are all aware walls are stronger than infills, so I designed each Magnet Presser with a hollow core. This effectively increase the core strength by providing Bambu Studio the ability to create additional walls inside of the Magnet Presser thereby, increasing the compression strength. 

The Magnet Pressers were printed using PTEG filament for strength.

The Magnet Pressers support 5x3mm, 8x3mm, and 10x3mm magnets.  If using magnets of 5mm and smaller, use the 5 Magnet Presser, and using magnets from 6mm to 8mm in diameter, use the 8 Magnet Presser, and so on. 

Materials

The following are needed:

2 – 5x3mm magnets

2 – 8x3mm magnets

2 – 10x3mm magnets

1 – Magnetic Pole Detector (helpful, not required)
