Corsair Carbide 275R Airflow case - front panel

Problem statement:

• Corsair Carbide 275R airflow case has a frustrating front panel that has a very tight push pin mechanism. To clean the dusty mesh filter behind, you have to apply excessive force to remove the front panel, eventually resulting in cracks on it and broken push pins.

Solution:

• I created a two-identical-pieces very basic design that employs basic magnets to replace the bulky front panel.

Advantages:

• A lot of space is created.
• Very easy to remove and clean the mesh filter behind.
• Noise level - I do not feel a difference.

Design details:

• Supports are required.
• Infill pattern and density is entirely up to you. I used 17% hexagon which I feel like a sweet spot.
• No clear prefence about material. I used PETG.
• Each magnet hole require two 10mm diameter + 2mm height neodymium magnets glued together. Then you glue the stacked magnets into the hole. Since the case's front panel is metal and hence magnetic, no need to do something about the case's front surface.
