A VERSATILE EVERYDAY COMPANION

Imagine having a versatile tool that effortlessly fits into your pocket, ready to tackle an array of tasks.

Meet the SmartBits – a compact marvel that seamlessly combines multiple functions in a sleek design.

This tool serves as both a screwdriver and a bit holder, providing easy access to 8 different bits for various applications.

Activating the tool is a breeze – a simple slide on the exposed bar causes the bits to extend from the opposite end. The magnet effortlessly guides them back into position. Never forget it open.

Thanks to the additional embedded magnets, each bit is securely held in place, ensuring they remain steadfast whether you're on the move or storing the SmartBits in your pocket.

It's the ideal companion for your everyday needs, effortlessly blending convenience and functionality.

Print Instructions:

Support is required for both the Base and the Slider. Please verify the 3mf file with Bambu Studio if there's any uncertainty.

Place the Slider with the magnet holes on the build plate and add regular support.

Position the Base with the side opening on the build plate and add regular support.

There is an alternative version of the base with flat bottom you can print with it on the build plate, but it requires support too.

No support is needed for the Button and Lid.

I recommend printing everything with a minimum resolution of 0.16mm.

Bill of Materials (BOM):

You'll need some magnets and a few screws:

12 magnets, 5 or 6mm x 2mm
4 screws, M3 Socket Head, 8mm

Assembly Instructions:

Start with the base and insert 2 magnets into the two rectangular holes; no glue is required there.

Next, with a bit of glue, add 1 magnet to the Base in the slider housing. Be cautious, as this magnet is the only one that needs attention to its side, opposite to the one you put in the center hole of the slider (to be attracted).

Now, take the Slider and glue 9 magnets on the bottom holes; again, the center one must have the same side as the magnet you put in the base slider housing.

Insert the slider into the base, add the lid, and tighten the lid screws.

Finally, attach the button to the slider with the last screw.

If the slider doesn't return to its position, slightly loosen the screws.

If you want I added also a cord endcap to be printed, look at the pictures, insert the paracord or similar in the bottom hole of the Endcap_Base make one simple knot on both ends, finally close it with the Endcap_Lid.

Also, take a look at the Magnetic Pocket Screwdriver I crafted.

Hope you like it!

(Got inspired by the Bit Bar by Big Design)

The layer between the magnet and the bit should be thinner, otherwise it will affect the magnet's attraction.

Thanks for feedback!

Can you tell me where you got your utility knife model? And I'm curious what color filament you used.

@JinOH

What gives with the main body of this print? I gave this 4 tries and it fails in exactly the same spot on every machine I sent this to (P2S and A1). Even added a brim to make sure it stayed put after 2 fails where it seems to ram into your main body, the other parts finish fine. PLA or PETG all crash. I have never had a failed print on clean properly prepped plates since the early days printing in 2018. Is your file corrupted? I used the one with the most users and sent from PC not app. First print was as laid out on A1, knocked it over at same spot pictured. Tried again with brim, same fail. Then tried on P2S, fresh plate with brim, fail. 4TH time is pictured with brim and 2nd body to see if it fails equally. Yup, failed 2x on one plate and crapped everywhere. Seems to be collision or freakout at level 125/207. Advice?

@michelem

I don't think you are using my print profile, because mine has 345 layers (not 207). Btw try switching grid infill to gyroid and it should work.

@JinOH

Replying to @michelem :

Hmm. Maybe the layer count is off on the P2S. Just saying what the screen showed. The print looks to be using gyroid and download is the "designer" 4.9 star (148). I know many had zero issues. Maybe something else is up. Maybe I will check what the file shows as settings and tweak if needed. Find it strange that fresh downloads all crashed the same way. 2 different PC and 3d printers. Thanks for reply.

@michelem

Replying to @JinOH :

Super weird. I just downloaded my print profile (148 rates) and I noticed it has Grid infill, I think that's the issue. I'm going to update it, but double check you are not using Grid infill.

@Makerspace987

Very high quality, really cool

Printed great. I used Bambu PLA-CF and Hatchbox Iron Red and it looks wonderful. I have some longer bits in it that I use for printer maintenance, so I don't intend it as a pocket item, but it organizes them in my drawer and makes for a great way to access my bits easily.

@ergononico

Can you tell me the cord diameter please?

@theurbanarmorer

Replying to @ergononico :

I used 325 paracord since it's what I had on hand, which is about 3mm.

Printed Great!

@user_2830215448

@michelem I love this model. Any chance you can remix into; 1. A double thickness which would hold 16 bits? 2. Any chance we can get the 8 bit and the 16 bit in the longer length bits... my dewalt bits are 57.28 mm Would be amazing... thanks in advance!

@user_3372408496

Yes! this would be awesome
